Question

success starter:

1. how does the respiratory system help the circulatory system?
2. why do you think muscles are important??

1.

1. muscles are important because

body system #1 : skeletal system
the skeletal system is the frame of the body that is held together by tendons, ligaments, and cartilage. the skeleton helps humans move and is involved in making blood cells (red and white) and storing calcium.
related disease: osteoporosis : lowers calcium in bones making them thinner and easier to break.
why is the skeletal system important?

body system #2 : nervous system
a system of nerves and the spinal cord that sends messages to the rest of the body.

Explanation:

1. For the respiratory-circulatory system question: The respiratory system takes in oxygen, which is transferred to blood in the circulatory system; it also removes carbon dioxide from the blood.
2. For muscle importance: Muscles enable movement, support posture, and drive internal organ functions.
3. For skeletal system importance: It provides body structure, enables movement, makes blood cells, and stores calcium.

Answer:

1. The respiratory system provides oxygen that the circulatory system transports to all body cells, and it removes carbon dioxide waste that the circulatory system carries from cells.
2. Muscles are important because they allow body movement, maintain posture, and power the function of internal organs like the heart and digestive tract.
3. The skeletal system is important because it forms the body's structural framework, allows movement when paired with muscles, produces red and white blood cells, and stores essential calcium for the body.
