What else can I help you with?
Are capillaries part of the respiratory system?
No. The capillaries are part of the circulatory system.
What type of organ is in the respiratory system?
Your lungs, the diaphragm, alveoli, bronchi, and capillaries are all in the respiratory system
What human systems do the capillaries work with?
Circulatory system AND THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
The process that exchanges gases across the walls of capillaries is?
the respiratory system
What are the components of the respiratory system?
Human respiratory system contain wind pipe or trachea, bronchus, bronchi, alveoli with blood capillaries. Lungs have air sacs or alveoli which are surrounded by capillaries which oxygenate, de-oxygenated blood.
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.
Where in the respiratory system does gas exhcange occur?
Gas exchange occurs in the alveoli in the respiratory system. The thin-walled structures allow diffusion of gases into and out of the capillaries.
What is the most superficial component of the respiratory system?
I would have to say both the minute capillaries and the mucosa.
Which system brings oxygen into your body and removes carbon dioxide?
The primary system to get rid of CO2 is the respiratory system. But it is aided by the circulatory system which delivers CO2 to the aveoli, where hemoglobin on Red blood cells then picks up O2 to take back to the cells.
What system take in oxygen and releases carbon dioxide to the exterior?
The respiratory system brings in air containing oxygen, and the oxygen is absorbed by the circulatory system. Capillaries surrounding the alveoli absorb inhaled oxygen into the blood.
What is the important organ in the respiratory system?
the important organ in the respiratory system would be the lungs. There are many other organs that are just as important as the lungs such as diaphram, capillaries, etc. but the lungs are considered to be the "stars"
Where does oxygen move from the respiratory system to circulatory system?
By diffusion across q capillary wall
