14 Which table best shows some functions of the circulatory, respiratory, 7 points digestive, and endocrine systems? * Function

Ronch [10]

Answer:The skeletal system makes up the framework of the body and allows us to move when our muscles contract. It stores minerals (e.g. calcium, phosphorous) and releases them into the body when they are needed. The skeletal system also protects internal organs and produces blood cells. Bones (e.g., skull, vertebrae)

Bones provide calcium that is essential for the proper functioning of the nervous system.

The skull protects the brain from injury.

The vertebrae protect the spinal cord from injury.

Sensory receptors in joints between bones send signals about body position to the brain.

The brain regulates the position of bones by controlling muscles.

Cardiovascular System

The cardiovascular system delivers oxygen, hormones, nutrients and white blood cells around the body by pumping blood, and it removes waste products. Heart, blood vessels

Endothelial cells maintain the blood-brain barrier.

Baroreceptors send information to the brain about blood pressure.

Cerebrospinal fluid drains into the venous blood supply.

The brain regulates heart rate and blood pressure.

Muscular System

Different types of muscles enable motion, generate heat to maintain body temperature, move food through digestive tract and contract the heart. Muscles (smooth, skeletal and cardiac muscles)

Receptors in muscles provide the brain with information about body position and movement.

The brain controls the contraction of skeletal muscle.

The nervous system regulates the speed at which food moves through the digestive tract.

Endocrine System

The endocrine system secretes hormones into blood and other body fluids. These chemicals are important for metabolism, growth, water and mineral balance, and the response to stress. Pineal body, pituitary gland, hypothalamus, thyroid, parathyroid, heart, adrenal gland, kidney, pancreas, stomach, intestines, ovary

Hormones provide feedback to the brain to affect neural processing.

Reproductive hormones affect the development of the nervous system.

The hypothalamus controls the pituitary gland and other endocrine glands.

Lymphatic System

The lymphatic system protects the body from infection. Adenoid, tonsils, thymus, lymph nodes, spleen

The brain can stimulate defense mechanisms against infection.

Respiratory System

The respiratory system supplies oxygen to the blood and removes carbon dioxide. Lungs, larynx, pharynx, trachea, bronchi

The brain monitors respiratory volume and blood gas levels.

The brain regulates respiratory rate.

Digestive System

The digestive system stores and digests foods, transfers nutrients to the body, eliminates waste and absorbs water. Stomach, esophagus, salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, intestines

Digestive processes provide the building blocks for some neurotransmitters.

The autonomic nervous system controls the tone of the digestive tract.

The brain controls drinking and feeding behavior.

The brain controls muscles for eating and elimination.

The digestive system sends sensory information to the brain.

Reproductive System

The reproductive system is responsible for producing new life. Testes, vas deferens, prostate gland, ovary, fallopian tubes, uterus, cervix

Reproductive hormones affect brain development and sexual behavior.

The brain controls mating behavior.

Urinary System

The urinary system eliminates waste products and maintains water balance and chemical balance. Bladder, urethra, kidney

The bladder sends sensory information to the brain.

The brain controls urination.

Integumentary System

The integumentary system reduces water loss, contains receptors that respond to touch, regulates body temperature, and protects the inside of the body from damage. Skin, hair

Receptors in skin send sensory information to the brain.

The autonomic nervous system regulates peripheral blood flow and sweat glands.

Nerves control muscles connected to hair follicles.

Forty years later, the fall of Saigon remains a pivotal and emotional event to many. You will now conduct research to find two f

kolezko [41]

On April 30th, 1975 the fall of Saigon took place marking the end of the Vietnam war through the evacuation of all American military along with thousands of civilians. The evacuation was through an operation known as Operation Frequent Wind which became the largest helicopter evacuation in history. During this time communist forces were advancing from the North to capture Saigon. Over 1,000 American civilians and over 7,000 South Vietnamese refugees were flown out of Saigon in less than 18 hours (Butler, 1985). The picture is chosen as it clearly illustrates thousands of Vietnamese civilians and American soldiers fighting for space on the helicopter.

What was the goal of the Redeemers during Reconstruction?

forsale [732]

Answer:

Explanation:

United States history, the Redeemers were a political coalition in the Southern United States during the Reconstruction Era that followed the Civil War. Redeemers were the Southern wing of the Bourbon Democrats, the conservative, pro-business faction in the Democratic Party. They sought to regain their political power and enforce white supremacy. Their policy of Redemption was intended to oust the Radical Republicans, a coalition of freedmen, "carpetbaggers", and "scalawags". They generally were led by the rich former planters, businessmen, and professionals, and they dominated Southern politics in most areas from the 1870s to 1910.

During Reconstruction, the South was under occupation by federal forces, and Southern state governments were dominated by Republicans, elected largely by freedmen and allies. Republicans nationally pressed for the granting of political rights to the newly-freed slaves as the key to their becoming full citizens. The Thirteenth Amendment (banning slavery), Fourteenth Amendment (guaranteeing the civil rights of former slaves and ensuring equal protection of the laws), and Fifteenth Amendment (prohibiting the denial of the right to vote on grounds of race, color, or previous condition of servitude), enshrined such political rights in the Constitution.
