________ 6. The basic unit of the nervous system, which transmits the messages to and from
the
central nervous system.
________7. Any factor in the environment that influences the behaviour of an organism.
________8. The ability or tendency of an organism to maintain internal equilibrium by
regulating its
processes.
________9. A process that occurs when the sperm and egg combine to produce an embryo.
________10. An organ that produces chemical secretions poured directly into the bloodstream.

TEST II. Modified TRUE or FALSE.

Write TRUE if the statement is correct and if it is false underline the word/s that makes it
incorrect.
