Answer:

a.) ventilation, circulation, cellular respiration

Explanation:

a.) ventilation, circulation, cellular respiration

b.) diffusion in tissues, cellular respiration, diffusion at respiratory surface

c.) ventilation, diffusion in tissues, circulation

d.) circulation, cellular respiration, diffusion in tissues

e.) circulation, ventilation, cellular respiration

Ventilation occurs in the lungs and is the process by which carbon dioxide in the capillaries is lost to the environment while oxygen is taken in. Circulation is the process by which this dissolved oxygen is taken by the blood to tissues around the body. When this oxygen is taken to tissue, the concentration gradient allows the oxygen to be taken up by tissue. This oxygen is used as an electron acceptor (when it reduced to water) in the mitochondria during electron transport chain of cellular respiration.

The nervous system has three general functions: a sensory function, an interpretative function and a motor function. 1. Sensory nerves gather information from inside the body and the outside environment. The nerves then carry the information to the central nervous system (CNS). 2. Sensory information brought to the CNS is processed and interpreted. 3. Motor nerve cells convey information from the CNS to the muscles and glands of the body. The nervous system is responsible for coordinating all of the body's activities.</span>

GrogVix [38]

The Sun provides energy for the plants (producers) to grow. Herbivores (primary consumers) then eat the producers for energy. Any animals that eat the herbivores are considered secondary consumers. As this cycle continues, energy is lost to the environment as heat.
