Question 13 • 2026-2027 EDGE Human Anatomy and Physiology B

Why does a healthy cardiovascular system help prevent neurological diseases and disorders?

Answer
A
because arteries provide the needed blood flow to the brain and neurons
B
because memory loss is prevented when the heart pumps efficiently
C
because the heart and spinal cord are close together in the body
D
because exercise is critical for proper breathing, which can prevent seizures

Explanation

The brain and neurons need a steady supply of oxygen and nutrients carried in the blood. A healthy cardiovascular system helps arteries deliver that blood flow, supporting normal brain function and reducing risks linked to poor circulation. The other choices make unsupported claims or focus on factors that do not explain the direct connection.
