Question
the respiratory system works with which other system to transport oxygen and carbon dioxide around the body?
nervous system
muscular system
circulatory system
skeletal system
The respiratory system is responsible for gas exchange (taking in oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide). The circulatory system (which includes the heart and blood vessels) transports oxygen - rich blood from the lungs (where gas exchange in the respiratory system occurs) to the rest of the body and brings carbon - dioxide - rich blood back to the lungs. The nervous system is mainly for control and communication, the muscular system for movement, and the skeletal system for support and protection, so they don't have the primary role of transporting gases with the respiratory system.
