How are they respiratory and circulatory systems connected?

The digestive system absorbs the glucose in the small intestine. Then the glucose is now in the blood stream. The respiratory system needs the glucose to make energy. The circulatory system gets the oxygen pumped into the body. And now there are glucose and oxygen in the bloodstream. Now the respiratory system, the glucose and the oxygen react with each other and there is now energy.
