Fill in the blank: The __________ system delivers oxygen-rich blood to the muscles during exercise.
Fill in the blank: The __________ system detects changes in the environment and sends signals to other systems to respond.
Fill in the blank: The __________ system is responsible for gas exchange between the body and the environment.
Fill in the blank: The __________ system is responsible for transporting oxygen, nutrients, and hormones to cells throughout the body.
True or False: The excretory system includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra.
True or False: The immune system depends on the circulatory system to transport white blood cells to sites of infection.
True or False: The muscular system is involved in the movement of food through the digestive tract.
True or False: The nervous system helps regulate the heart rate in response to physical activity.
