The only system in the body that has different organs for male and female individuals of a species
What the reproductive system?
300
A response to change that brings a system back to homeostasis, also functioning as the stop signal
What is a negative feedback loop?

500
The difference between a tissue, an organ, and an organ system
What is: tissue - group of cells working for a job
organ - different tissues doing a job
system - multiple organs working together
