Maintaining a healthy weight allows the respiratory system to work more effectively because **the heart does not have to pump as forcefully**.

When a person has a healthy weight, it can lead to better cardiovascular health, which facilitates improved oxygen delivery and efficient respiratory function. Excess weight can put additional strain on the heart and lungs, making it harder for the body to deliver oxygen effectively throughout the system.
