WHICH STRUCTURE IN THE NERVOUS SYSTEM IS MOST LIKE A JOINT IN THE SKELETAL SYSTEM?
The synapse is most like a joint.
What two body system would most likely remove extra fluid from a person's lungs?
The respiratory and urinary systems. The respiratory system removes excess fluid from the lungs through exhalation, while the urinary system eliminates fluid from the body via urine production and excretion.
What part of the brain controls the urinary system?
The brain stem is responsible for regulating the urinary system by controlling functions like urination and bladder control. It sends signals to the bladder muscles when it's time to urinate and also relaxes the muscles in the urethra to allow urine to pass.
Which type of muscle is responsible for moving fluids through the urinary system?
Smooth muscle is responsible for moving fluids through the urinary system. These muscles are found in the walls of the ureters and bladder and contract to push urine from the kidneys to the bladder and then out of the body.
How does the urinary maintain homeostasis?
The urinary system supports the kidneys. The kidneys are the organ of homeostasis. The kidneys send unnecessary fluid containing toxins to the bladder for storage. When an ample amount has accumulated, the urinary system will expel it in the form of urine.
