Question

question 10 of 10
which describes a link between the nervous and excretory systems?
a. the esophagus has nerves that cause digestion.
b. nerves form the connective tissue in the kidney.
c. the kidneys send hormones to the bladder.
d. nerves detect changes to salt levels in the blood.

Explanation:

The nervous system (nerves) detects changes (salt levels in blood - related to excretory system's function of maintaining electrolyte balance). Option A is about digestive system (esophagus). Option B is incorrect as nerves are not connective tissue in kidney. Option C is about hormonal communication (not nervous - excretory link as directly as D).

Answer:

D. Nerves detect changes to salt levels in the blood.
