B. Respiratory system
C. Circulatory system
D. Integumentary system
D. Integumentary system
A tissue that can contract and relax to produce movement
Muscle
the process of breathing in oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide
respiration
This system prepares food for cellular utilization
Digestive System
How do the circulatory system and the respiratory system work together in body?
A. To enable movement and locomotion
B. To prepare for reproduction
C. To exhange CO2 and O2
D. To reduce infeciton
C. To exhange CO2 and O2
Many different body parts work together to allow humans and other animals to breathe. Oxygen enters the nose and follows the path to your lungs. Cilia help keep the oxygen that moves into your lungs clean. Next alveoli allow oxygen from the air to pass into your blood. All of these parts working together create a very important process for humans. What is this process called?
Respiration
A chemical that helps speed up the breakdown of food into smaller molecules
Enzyme
continous movement of blood throughout the body
circulation
This system relates to the process by which an organism gets rid of its waste
Excretory System

A. Muscular, nervous, skeletal
B. Respiratory, endocrine, skeletal
C. Lymphatic, skeletal muscular
D. Nervous, respiratory, muscular
A. Muscular, nervous, skeletal

False
The process where nutrients move from the digestive system into the bloodstream
Absorption

spinal cord
This system receives and transmits information and responses. It depends upon electrical impulses created by the movement of charged particles.

stimulus
This system gets oxygen to the cells of the body and rids the body of waste gases. Some organisms use their skin. This is also a cell-level process.
Respiratory System
Your brain, the most important organ in your body. Which body system protects your brain?
Skeletal
These two systems are the most responsible for providing cells with oxygen and removing the carbon dioxide.
Circulatory and Respiratory
