Verified step by step guidance
1
Identify the primary function of each organ listed in the problem.
Understand that the stomach's main role is to break down food, not absorb nutrients. Nutrient absorption primarily occurs in the small intestine.
Recognize that the kidneys are responsible for filtering blood and producing urine, not producing insulin. Insulin is produced by the pancreas.
Acknowledge that the heart's function is to pump blood throughout the body, not to filter it. Blood filtration is a function of the kidneys.
Conclude that the lungs are correctly paired with their function of gas exchange, as they facilitate the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the air and the bloodstream.
