The lungs bring air into the air sacs, which are tightly wrapped with capillaries. The capillaries exchange oxygen for carbon dioxide, which the lungs expel.

Are the air sacs a part of the circulatory or respiratory system?
Air sacs are part of the respiratory system
Where in the body does the respiratory system connect to the circulatory system?
The respiratory and circulatory system connect in the lungs. At the alveoli, the air sacs are wrapped closely by capillaries to facilitate gas exchange.
Which systems work together to provide the bodys cells with oxygen?
The circulatory system and respiratory system work together to provide the body's cells with oxygen and to carry away the carbon dioxide that cells generate as respiratory waste. The respiratory system gets air into lungs and in the small air sacs were oxygen is transported into the blood, and the circulatory system carries the oxygen in the red blood cells and delivers it to cells in need of oxygen. The oxygen is stored in the hemoglobin in the blood, and the blood is pumped around the bodily organs by the heart, releasing oxygen at the organs.
How does a birds skeletal system respiratory system and circulatory system all work together to enable it to fly?
they all work together and help the bird fly because a birds lungs connect to the air sacs that provide a constant supply of oxygen to the blood and make the bird more lightweight.
What part of the respiratory system are sacs?
the aveoli
How does the respiratory system and circulatory system connect?
In the lungs,Blood is exchanged adn sent to different parts of the body.
Where does oxygen move from the respiratory system to circulatory system?
By diffusion across q capillary wall
What organ system does a lungs belong to?
The respiratory system. The alveoli are air sacs in the lungs.
What two body systems work together for gas transport?
RESPIRATORY system (lungs) brings oxygen-containing air into tiny air sacs called alveoli where the oxygen diffuses into the CIRCULATORY SYSTEM (blood vessels) and carbon dioxide diffuses out of the blood vessels which is then exhaled.
What are parts that found in respiratory system of chicken?
air sacs
Which human system contains air sacs know as alveoli?
The respiratory system
How does respiratory system and muscular system work together?
The muscular system provides additional movement to create a relative vacuum in the lungs, which draws air into the air sacs. The respiratory system provides oxygen that muscles need to create movement.
