How do the respiratory system and circulatory system interact? (1 point) i sterl (A

In the lungs, carbon dioxide is transferred to the blood and carried by red blood cells.
Once it is distributed, the red blood cells pick up oxygen and transport it back to the lungs, where is transferred to the lungs so it can be exhaled.
In the lungs, air is transferred into the blood stream, where red blood cells deliver it to the heart. The heart then separates the oxygen and sends it to the organs, while sending the waste back to the lungs to exhale.

The respiratory system and circulatory system do not interact because the respiratory system is related to breathing and the circulatory system is related to blood.

The correct interaction between the respiratory system and circulatory system is described in the following statement:

"In the lungs, oxygen is transferred to the blood and carried by red blood cells. Once it is distributed, the red blood cells pick up carbon dioxide and transport it back to the lungs, where it is expelled when we exhale."

This statement accurately summarizes how the two systems work together: the respiratory system facilitates gas exchange in the lungs (oxygen in, carbon dioxide out), while the circulatory system transports these gases throughout the body via the blood.
