B. It delivers oxygen to the blood.

The respiratory system brings air into the lungs where gas exchange occurs in the alveoli: oxygen diffuses into pulmonary capillaries and is carried by the cardiovascular system to tissues. (The lungs also remove CO2 from the blood, but they do not store oxygen or digest food.)
