Interdependence of Organ Systems in Homeostasis starts at 9 and continues till grade 12.
QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Interdependence of Organ Systems in Homeostasis.
How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take.
When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 12
A patient has a high fever. Which organ systems are involved in returning the body to normal temperature?
A person is dehydrated after intense exercise. Which two organ systems are primarily involved in restoring water balance?
Describe how the failure of the respiratory system can impact the function of the muscular system.
Describe how the immune and circulatory systems work together to defend the body against infection.
Describe how the integumentary and circulatory systems interact to regulate body temperature.
Describe how the skeletal and muscular systems work together to maintain posture and movement, contributing to homeostasis.

Which of the following best describes the function of the negative feedback loop in homeostasis? (1) Amplifies changes (2) Reverses changes to restore balance (3) Maintains constant change (4) Initiates disease
Which of the following best describes the role of the liver in homeostasis? (1) Produces digestive enzymes (2) Regulates blood glucose levels (3) Pumps blood (4) Filters air
Which of the following best explains the interdependence of the nervous and endocrine systems in homeostasis? (1) Both produce hormones (2) Both use electrical signals (3) The nervous system triggers hormone release from endocrine glands (4) Both filter blood
Which of the following is a direct result of the failure of the respiratory system to function properly? (1) Decreased hormone production (2) Accumulation of carbon dioxide in the blood (3) Increased urine output (4) Decreased bone density
The _______________ system helps regulate body temperature by producing sweat.
The _______________ system is responsible for detecting and responding to changes in the internal and external environment.
The _______________ system is responsible for the exchange of gases between the body and the environment.
The _______________ system is responsible for the production of blood cells.
True or False: The digestive and respiratory systems are both involved in the removal of waste products from the body.
True or False: The digestive system is responsible for the breakdown of food and absorption of nutrients, which are then transported by the circulatory system.
True or False: The endocrine system communicates with the nervous system to maintain homeostasis through the release of hormones.
True or False: The endocrine system only affects the organs where hormones are produced.
