BMS 107 "Connections" Plus Hour Assignment

For purposes of this assignment, "Connections" may be defined as follows:
• a structural connection may be thought of as a place where two or more structures are physically connected
• a functional connection may be thought of as an interface between two or more structures at which the structures interact, for example, an interface in which substances move or flow from one to another

The Assignment: Briefly describe a structural connection or a functional connection between each of the following pairs of systems:
1. between the cardiovascular system and the lymphatic system
2. between the cardiovascular system and the respiratory system
3. between the cardiovascular system and the digestive system
4. between the cardiovascular system and the urinary system
5. between the digestive system and the lymphatic system

For full credit:
• clearly identify the specific structures that are structurally or functionally connected within each pair; and
• briefly explain the function or "purpose" of the connection.
• Answers may be brief (a few sentences or a short paragraph on each pair) as long as they address the points noted directly above. Two (2) points each.

Sumission:
• Reports may be submitted by e mail or on hard copy.
• If submitting by e mail, please include, in the subject line, "bms107p5," your first and last names, and the first letter of the day you attend lab (W, T, or S), for example, "bms107p5AndreasVesaliusW".
