What part of the nervous system is stimulated when the following occurs: Pupils dilate, heart rate
increases, digestion slows

What is the correct pathway of blood through the circulatory system?
Left ventricle, aorta, systemic circuit, vena cava, right atrium, right ventricle, lungs, left atrium
What is the goal of the right side of the heart?
, To pump un-oxygenated blood (the blood your body has used) to the lungs so that the blood can be
re supplied with oxygen
Which type of glands produce hormones and secrete them directly into the blood?
Endocrine glands
Exocrine glands
Secrete their products into ducts that carry the product to target tissues (sweat glands)
Parathyroid hormone
increases blood calcium levels
Important for cognitive functions and control of voluntary movement and activity
Frontal lobe
Parietal lobe
Processes information about temperature, taste touch, and movement
Occipital lobe
Primarily responsible for vision
