3. The nervous system plays a role in nearly every aspect of our health and well-being. It guides
everyday activities such as waking up; automatic activities such as breathing; and complex
processes such as thinking, reading, remembering, and feeling emotions. The nervous system
controls: Brain growth and development.

Questions:

1. When one body system is malfunctioned, the other body system compensates for the failure to
regain balance. Balance gets disrupted and body system may not function properly and the
human health can suffer very badly.
2. As every organ system in the body perform a certain purpose. Yet, the functions that the organ
system does that is necessary for life are the basic processes of life which include organization,
metabolism, responsiveness, movements, and reproduction. In humans, who represent the
most complex form of life, there are additional requirements such as growth, differentiation,
respiration, digestion, and excretion. All of these processes are interrelated.

1. The key difference between gastrovascular cavity and alimentary canal is that gastrovascular
cavity is a two-way digestive tract which has only one opening while the alimentary canal is a
one-way digestive tract which has two openings. Based on the body plan, organisms can be
primitive or advanced.
2. Gills are evaginations of the body surface. Some open directly to the environment; others, as in
fishes, are enclosed in a cavity. In contrast, lungs represent invaginations of the body surface.
Many invertebrates use gills as a major means of gas exchange; a few, such as the pulmonate
land snail, use lungs.
 3. In open circulation, the blood is not enclosed in the blood vessels and is pumped into a cavity
called hemocoel. On the contrary, in closed circulation, the blood is pumped through the vessels
separate from the interstitial fluid of the body.
4. The Endoskeleton of an animal is present inside the body, which is also known as the internal
skeleton. Meanwhile, the exoskeleton of an animal is present outside the body, which is also
known as the external skeleton. The exoskeleton is made up of hard bones and malleable
cartilage.
5. urination, also called Micturition, the process of excreting urine from the urinary bladder. while
digestion The process of breaking down food into substances the body can use for energy, tissue
growth, and repair.

III.

1. Respiratory System — responsible for two general processes -- obtaining oxygen and releasing
carbon dioxide.
2. Immune System —responsible for the immune response of the body. The system which is
responsible for battling the disease.
3. Circulatory System —Responsible for carrying oxygen, nutrients, and hormones to the cell. It
also removes waste product like CO2.
4. Nervous System — responsible for precise and more rapid mode of actions. it is responsible for
generating ideas and thoughts that will be put into action.
5. Digestive System —it includes organs that promotes digestion in which food substances are
change into forms that can be absorbed by the cell membranes
6. Skeletal System — responsible for the framework of the body, protecting internal organs,
productions of blood cells, and storage of calcium and other minerals.
7. Endocrine System — responsible for stimulating hormones that is essential for life and
maintaining body's homeostasis.
8. Muscular System — Give shapes to the body and helps to allow movement.
9. Urinary System — responsible for regulating the body homeostasis by means of removing the
metabolic wastes and by retaining the proper amounts of water and nutrients.

They function all together if the parts are complete and was able to do each role Just as the
organs in an organ system work together to accomplish their task, so the different organ systems also
cooperate to keep the body running.

Though organs throughout the body play roles in maintaining homeostasis, the endocrine
system and the nervous system are both especially important in sustaining and regulating it.
