Use the diagram from p. 517 in the Fusion textbook (or online Fusion textbook) to answer this question. The diagram below shows two important parts of the human digestive system. Based on the diagram from p. 517 in your Fusion textbook (or online Fusion textbook), which of these statements is correct?

Question 8

8.

Use the diagram from p. 517 in the Fusion textbook (or online Fusion textbook) to answer this question. The pictures below show three types of cells. Based on the pictures from p. 517 in your Fusion textbook (or online Fusion textbook), which of the following is true of these cells?

These are different examples of bacteria.

These cells cause different types of cancer.

All three cells are types of white blood cells

The B cell and T cell are pathogens that the macrophage fights against.

Question 9

9.

The body must maintain a relatively stable amount of sugar in the blood to work properly. How would the endocrine system respond after a person digests a piece of fruit? (Hint: Step 1. Recall the function of the endocrine system. Step 2. Think about how feedback mechanisms play a role in this function. Step 3. Find the mechanism that relates to the example described from among the choices.)

It will remove waste less quickly from the blood.

It will remove waste more quickly from the blood.

It will release less of the hormone that helps cells take glucose out of the blood.

It will release more of the hormone that helps cells take glucose out of the blood.

Question 10

10.

Use the diagram from p. 519 in the Fusion textbook (or online Fusion textbook) to answer this question. The diagram below shows the main parts of the respiratory system. Based on the pictures from p. 519 in your Fusion textbook (or online Fusion textbook), whch of these correctly names the parts of the respiratory system numbered 1 through 5 in the diagram above (see Fusion pp. 519)?

1. larynx, 2. pharynx, 3. trachea, 4. bronchi, 5. alveoli

1. pharynx, 2. larynx, 3. trachea, 4. bronchi, 5. alveoli

Question 11

11.

Which of these statements correctly describes a key difference between aerobic activity and anaerobic activity?

Aerobic activity is intense and of short duration, while anaerobic activity involves moderate effort over a long period of time.

Muscles do not use oxygen during aerobic activity, but they do during anaerobic activity.

Aerobic activity increases muscle endurance, while anaerobic activity increases muscle strength

Lifting weights in an aerobic activity, while jogging is an aerobic activity.

Question 12

12.

Use the bar graph on Fuion p. 520 (or the online Fusion textbook) to answer this question. The bar graph shows how the height of a young person changed during a five-year period. Which statement bext explains this change? (Hint: Step 1. Read the labels on the axes of the graph. Step 2. Notice how the heights of the bars change across the graph. Step 3. Relate the change on the graph to one of the body systems.)

The nervous system regulated growth during the period to keep the growth rate steady.

The endocrine system released hormones so the growth rate was steady over this period.

The digestive system released more nutrients  each year to cause the growth rate to increase.

The circulatory syustem created more cells each year and caused the growth rate to increase.

Question 13

13.
