Question

the table shows the functions of several body systems. identify the body system described in each column. move one correct answer to each box. function: blood transports oxygen and nutrients to all body cells function: produces hormones that help control growth and development function: protects from environment, regulates temperature, produces vitamin d function: produces sex cells and offspring function: breaks down food into smaller particles so that nutrients can be absorbed into the body circulatory endocrine integumentary reproductive digestive

Explanation:

Match each body system to its core function:

1. The circulatory system uses blood to carry oxygen and nutrients throughout the body.
2. The endocrine system releases hormones that regulate growth and development.
3. The integumentary system (skin, hair, nails) acts as a protective barrier, regulates body temperature, and synthesizes vitamin D.
4. The reproductive system is responsible for producing sex cells and creating offspring.
5. The digestive system breaks down food into absorbable particles for the body to use.

Answer:

1. Function: Blood transports oxygen and nutrients to all body cells → circulatory
2. Function: Produces hormones that help control growth and development → endocrine
3. Function: Protects from environment, regulates temperature, produces vitamin D → integumentary
4. Function: Produces sex cells and offspring → reproductive
5. Function: Breaks down food into smaller particles so that nutrients can be absorbed into the body → digestive
