29. Compare and contrast the mitochondria with the chloroplast

30. Give 2 examples passive transport

31 - 42 Match up the organ system with its function

|31. Circulatory |a. movement, protection, shape, support, storage of minerals and produces blood cells |

|32. Respiratory |b. protects body from infection |

|33. Digestive |c. breaks down food and absorbs nutrients |

|34. Nervous |d. detects changes outside and inside your body and controls the way your body responds to these changes |

| | |

|35. Skeletal |e. males – sperm production; females – eggs |

|36. Muscular |f. transports oxygen and nutrients to cells and carries wastes away from cells |

|37. Endocrine |g. removes wastes from the body and helps maintain homeostasis |

|38. Integumentary |h. movement, posture, and production of heat |

|39. Immune |i. moves oxygen into the body and carbon dioxide out of the body |

|40. Lymphatic |j. forms protective barrier around body, prevents water loss, controls body temperature, and gathers information about your surroundings |

|41. Reproductive |k. produces chemical messengers called hormones; some hormones help to maintain homeostasis while others control development and growth |

|42. Excretory |l. takes fluid from the spaces between cells and returns it to the circulatory system; filters bacteria and other microorganisms from |

| |this fluid |
