Why is the blood flowing to the heart oxygen-poor while the blood flowing to the rest of the body is oxygen-rich?
When the blood is flowing back to the heart, the blood has already given off its oxygen to the rest of the body which means it contain less oxygen concentration in the blood. and when blood is flowing from the heart to the rest of the body, the blood contains high level of oxygen because they were being given oxygen by the lungs which passes along the heart and the heart pumps it to the rest of the body.

Why is oxygen so critical to heart muscle?
Oxygen plays many roles in the metabolic pathways that support contracture of the heart's cardiac muscle tissue. The heart muscle is the only muscle in the body which is always working. It cannot stop and rest, because the body requires a constant circulation of blood, to supply the tissues of the body with oxygen and nutrients. The brain can only survive for 3 minutes without oxygen. So since the heart must constantly work, it requires a constant supply of oxygenated blood. Without it, the heart would not have the energy it requires to do its work, and would stop.
What other system does the respiratory system work with to help the circulatory system bring oxygen and glucose to the body cells?

Why is there an initial rapid increase in respiration rate during exercise?
Your body requires more oxygen when it's performing exercise, and as a result, you will take more breaths per minute to satisfy the increased oxygen demands. Oxygen is needed to efficiently convert glucose to ATP (your body's cellular energy source), and exercise certainly requires added energy.
How is respiration related to nutrition?
respiration requires glucose to occur where there the combining of glucose with oxygen to produce energy which is used by the body in many processes for example in digestion. but for a person to have enough energy it needs someone to be well nutrited
