A

cardiovascular system

23
Q

What organ system is responsible for the breakdown of foods, absorbing nutrients, and eliminates solid wastes

A

digestive system

24
Q

What organ system is responsible for gas exchange

A

respiratory system

25
What organ system produces, stores, and eliminates urine
urinary system
26
what organ system maintains mineral balance
urinary system
27
What organ system produces gametes
reproductive system
28
how much water is in an average young adult male
60%
29
this type of body fluids is found inside of cells
intracellular fluids (ICF)
30
this body fluid consists of 2/3 of the volume of fluids in the body
ICF
31
this type of body fluid is found outside the cell
Extracellular fluid
32
Extracellular fluid has ions and nutrients needed by the cells to maintain life. Because of this, it is called __
internal environment/ milieu interieur
33
This type fo body fluid consists if 1/3 of the volume of fluids in the body
ECF
34
ECF can be divided into three
plasma, interstitial fluid, transcellular fluid
35
organ system that returns proteins and fluid to blood
Lymphatic and immune system
36
organ system that carries lipids from gastrointestinal tract to blood
lymphatic and immune system
37
organ system that achieves physical and chemical breakdown of food
digestive system
38
this system has gonads that release hormones that regulate reproduction and other body processes
reproductive system
39
Organ system that protects the body, helps regulate body temperature, and eliminates some waste
integumentary system
40
organ system that detects sensations such as touch, pain, warmth, and cold
integumentary system
41
ECF is composed of how much of body weight
20%
42
plasma is 25% of ECF, what is its percentage in body weight
5%
43
interstitial fluid is 75% of ECF, but how about its body weight
15%
44
examples of transcellular fluid
CSF pleural peritoneal pericardial synovial digestive secretions
45
intracellular fluid is composed of how much of the body weight
40% of body weight
46
what body composition is 18% of body weight
