(12) Organisms and environments. The student knows that living systems at all levels of organization demonstrate the complementary nature of structure and function. The student is expected to:• (B) identify the main functions of the systems of the human organism,

including the circulatory, respiratory, skeletal, muscular, digestive, excretory, reproductive, integumentary, nervous, and endocrine systems;

(13) Organisms and environments. The student knows that a living organism must be able to maintain balance in stable internal conditions in response to external and internal stimuli. The student is expected to:• (A) investigate how organisms respond to external stimuli found in the

environment such as phototropism and fight or flight; and• (B) describe and relate responses in organisms that may result from

internal stimuli such as wilting in plants and fever or vomiting in animals that allow them to maintain balance.
