Plasma ✔️✔️Contains digested food, metabolic waste products, and proteins



What is the primary function of the respiratory system?

The primary function of the respiratory system is to supply the body with oxygen and remove carbon
dioxide. ✔️✔️



How does the process of inspiration occur?

Inspiration occurs when the diaphragm contracts and moves downward, increasing the volume of the
thoracic cavity and causing air to flow into the lungs. ✔️✔️



What are the main components of blood?

The main components of blood are plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. ✔️✔️



What is the role of the alveoli in the respiratory system?

The alveoli are responsible for gas exchange, where oxygen is absorbed into the blood and carbon
dioxide is removed. ✔️✔️



What is the function of hemoglobin in red blood cells?

Hemoglobin binds to oxygen in the lungs and transports it to tissues throughout the body. It also carries
carbon dioxide back to the lungs for exhalation. ✔️✔️



How does the body regulate blood pressure?

The body regulates blood pressure through mechanisms such as the constriction and dilation of blood
vessels, and by adjusting the heart rate and volume of blood pumped. ✔️✔️



What is the difference between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems?

, The sympathetic nervous system prepares the body for "fight or flight" responses, while the
parasympathetic nervous system promotes "rest and digest" functions. ✔️✔️



Describe the role of the kidneys in maintaining homeostasis.

The kidneys filter waste products from the blood, regulate fluid and electrolyte balance, and help
maintain proper blood pressure. ✔️✔️



What is the function of the lymphatic system?

The lymphatic system is responsible for removing toxins and waste, and it plays a crucial role in immune
defense. ✔️✔️



What is the function of the digestive system?

The digestive system is responsible for breaking down food, absorbing nutrients, and eliminating waste
products from the body. ✔️✔️



How does the heart function in the circulatory system?

The heart pumps blood through the circulatory system, supplying oxygen and nutrients to the tissues
and removing waste products. ✔️✔️



What is the role of the small intestine in digestion?

The small intestine is responsible for the majority of nutrient absorption and the breakdown of food into
simpler molecules. ✔️✔️



What is the function of platelets in the blood?

Platelets are responsible for blood clotting, helping to prevent excessive bleeding when blood vessels
are injured. ✔️✔️



How does the skeletal system contribute to overall body function?

The skeletal system provides structure and support, protects vital organs, and works with muscles to
allow movement. ✔️✔️
