The body system pictured is the circulatory system, while the system responsible for gas exchange with the external environment is the respiratory system. These two systems interact closely; the respiratory system brings in oxygen from the environment and expels carbon dioxide, while the circulatory system transports the oxygenated blood to cells throughout the body and carries carbon dioxide back to the lungs for exhalation. This collaboration is essential for maintaining the body’s overall function and homeostasis.
Below is a model of a crucial human body system. In 2-3 complete sentences, identify the body system, and explain how it interacts with the body system that is responsible for gas exchange with the external environment.
Grading Considerations:
