####
Step 1: Understand the Body Systems and Their Functions
We are given 10 functions and 10 body systems. The goal is to match each function with the correct system. Let's analyze each function and determine which system it corresponds to.

Step 2: Match Each Function to the Correct System
1.
Breaks down food into smaller food nutrients.
- This is the function of the
Digestive System.
-
Answer: B. Digestive System
2.
Protects internal organs and gives the body shape.
- This is the function of the
Skeletal System.
-
Answer: J. Skeletal System
3.
Helps the body to move.
- This is the function of the
Muscular System.
-
Answer: F. Muscular System
4.
Uses food (glucose) and oxygen to make energy.
- This is the function of the
Respiratory System (for oxygen intake) and the
Circulatory System (for transporting glucose and oxygen). However, the primary system responsible for energy production is the
Cellular Respiration Process, which occurs in cells throughout the body but is most directly associated with the
Circulatory System for nutrient transport.
-
Answer: A. Circulatory System
5.
Removes waste materials (e.g., urine) from the body.
- This is the function of the
Excretory System.
-
Answer: C. Excretory System
6.
Transports oxygen, food nutrients, etc., around the body.
- This is the function of the
Circulatory System.
-
Answer: A. Circulatory System
7.
Produces hormones that are released directly into the bloodstream.
- This is the function of the
Endocrine System.
-
Answer: D. Endocrine System
8.
Helps the body fight infection and kill germs and bacteria.
- This is the function of the
Immune System, which is part of the
Lymphatic System.
-
Answer: E. Lymphatic System
9.
Transports electrical messages (impulses) around the body.
- This is the function of the
Nervous System.
-
Answer: G. Nervous System
10.
Allows the body to make young ones (offspring).
- This is the function of the
Reproductive System.
-
Answer: H. Reproductive System

Step 3: Verify the Matches
Let's double-check the matches to ensure they are accurate:
1. Digestive System → Breaks down food
2. Skeletal System → Protects organs and gives shape
3. Muscular System → Helps the body move
4. Circulatory System → Uses food and oxygen to make energy
5. Excretory System → Removes waste
6. Circulatory System → Transports oxygen and nutrients
7. Endocrine System → Produces hormones
8. Lymphatic System → Fights infection
9. Nervous System → Transports electrical messages
10. Reproductive System → Allows reproduction

Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{
\begin{array}{ll}
1. & B \\
2. & J \\
3. & F \\
4. & A \\
5. & C \\
6. & A \\
7. & D \\
8. & E \\
9. & G \\
10. & H \\
\end{array}
}
