Which statement is true of blood circulation?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Blood is propelled away from the heart by the pumping action of the heart through the arteries to all tissues in the body.

Answer: B
 The lymphatic system is responsible for picking up extra interstitial fluid that collects between body cells.

Answer: C
 More rapid blood flow may lead to dehydration because more fluid is lost through urine and sweat. Drinking enough water is necessary for proper fluid balance, and blood circulation helps distribute the water throughout the body.

Answer: D
 The liquid portion of blood, called plasma, is filtered by the kidneys, not lymph nodes. The kidneys remove excess waste and water to help maintain homeostasis in the body.
