3. lacteals 4. bronchioles

6. Base your answers to the following question on the diagram of the human heart and on your knowledge of biology. Deoxygenated blood from the body is returned to the heart by way of structure

3. C 4. D

7. The diagram represents the pathway of blood throughout the body. Which structure represents the chamber of the heart that receives oxygenated blood directly from the lungs?

1. 5 2. 6

3. 3 4. 4

8. In the human heart, the muscular structure of the ventricles enables them to 1. pump blood a greater distance than atria can 2. carry only oxygenated blood

3. carry only deoxygenated blood 4. pump blood directly into the atria

9. Which statement most accurately describes the human heart? 1. It has two atria and one ventricle, and it pumps blood directly into veins. 2. It has one atrium and one ventricle, and it is composed of cardiac muscle.

3. It has one atrium and two ventricles, and it is composed of visceral muscle. 4. It has two atria and two ventricles, and it pumps blood directly into ateries.

10. In a human, the transport of blood between the heart and lungs is known as 1. systemic circulation 2. coronary circulation

3. lymphatic circulation 4. pulmonary circulation

11. When humans exhale, air passes from the trachea directly into the 1. bronchioles 2. alveoli

3. bronchi 4. pharynx

12. One type of allergic reaction results in constriction of the bronchial tubes, which interferes with the passage of air into and out of the lungs. This type of allergic reaction is most closely associated with 1. asthma 3. bronchitis 2. emphysema 4. meningitis

13. Which adaptation found within the human respiratory system filters, warms, and moistens the air before it enters the lungs? 1. clusters of alveoli 3. involuntary smooth muscle 2. rings of cartilage 4. ciliated mucous membranes

14. When a person does strenuous exercise, small blood vessels (capillaries) near the surface of the skin increase in diameter. This change allows the body to be cooled. These statements best illustrate 1. synthesis 3. excretion 2. homeostasis 4. locomotion

15. Which substances may form in the human body due to invaders entering the blood? 1. nutrients 3. antibodies 2. vaccines 4. red blood cells

16. Which line in the graph (see image) best illustrates an effect of the carbon dioxide level in the blood on breathing rate before, during, and after a period of exercise?

1. A 2. B

3. C 4. D

17. Some human white blood cells help destroy pathogenic bacteria by

1. causing mutations in the bacteria 2. engulfing and digesting the bacteria

3. producing toxins that compete with bacterial toxins 4. inserting part of their DNA into the bacterial cells

18. An investigation was set up to study the movement of water through a membrane. The results are shown in the diagram (see image). Based on these results, which statement correctly predicts what will happen to red blood cells when they are placed in a beaker containing a water solution in which the salt concentration is much higher than the salt concentration in the red blood cells?

1. The red blood cells will absorb water and increase in size. 2. The red blood cells will lose water and decrease in size.

3. The red blood cells will first absorb water, then lose water and maintain their normal size. 4. The red blood cells will first lose water, then absorb water, and finally double in size.

19. In the accompanying diagram, which structure performs a function similar to a function of the human lungs?

20. Which statement best describes a change that usually takes place in the human body when the heart rate increases as a result of exercise? 1. More oxygen is delivered to muscle cells. 3. The rate of digestion increases. 2. Blood cells are excreted at a faster rate. 4. No hormones are produced. 21. In the human body, hydrochloric acid is responsible for the low pH of the contents of the 1. lungs 3. liver 2. kidney 4. stomach

22. Feces is usually about 40 percent water and 60 percent solid matter. Reducing the water content to 20 percent would most likely result in 1. ulcers 3. diarrhea 2. appendicitis 4. constipation

23. Which structures secrete chemicals utilized for the completion of digestion within the small intestine? 1. liver and pancreas 3. esophagus and alveoli 2. glomerulus and villi 4. gallbladder and pharynx
