Which table best shows some functions of the circulatory, respiratory, digestive, and endocrine systems?

Respuesta :

Answer:

This question is incomplete as it does not include the table. However, the functions of the systems on the table with their associated systems are;

- Releases hormones: Digestive and endocrine systems

- Supplies the body with oxygen: respiratory and circulatory systems

- Supplies the body with nutrients: digestive and circulatory systems

- Removes carbon dioxide: respiratory and circulatory systems

Explanation:

Endocrine system of the body constitutes endocrine glands that secrete hormones into the bloodstream. Example of endocrine glands are the adrenal gland, pituitary gland, hypothalamus, thyroid, ovaries etc. However, the PANCREAS, which is an organ in the digestive system is also an endocrine gland that secretes INSULIN and GLUCAGON hormones into the bloodstream. Hence, the endocrine and digestive systems releases hormones

The respiratory system comprises organs that regulate gas exchange in the body i.e. take in oxygen, take out carbon dioxide. However, the circulatory system, which comprises the arteries, veins, capillaries transports the oxygen throughout the body via the blood. The oxygen enters via the respiratory system and is circulated by the circulatory system.

Ingested food is broken down via the digestive system, which comprises of organs like small intestine, stomach, pancreas, large intestine, liver etc. The digested food releases nutrients into the bloodstream, which gets transported by the blood to other parts of the body. Hence, the circulatory and digestive systems play a part in supplying the body with nutrients.

Respiratory system via the process of gas exchange removes carbon dioxide from the body system. However, the carbon dioxide waste enters into the bloodstream (circulatory system) initially before getting transported to the lungs where the respiratory system takes over by exhalation
