Which body system removes liquid and gas wastes from the body?
Respiratory system
What is the body system that has a major role in gas exchange?
respiratory
What body system works with the respiratory system during gas exchange in the cells?
Cardiovascular
The respiratory system is responsible for the exchange of what?
In the respiratory system, we see the exchange of gases. In this gas exchange, carbon dioxide (CO2) leaves the blood and goes into air in the lungs, and oxygen (O2) leaves the air in the lungs and goes into the blood. It is this gas exchange, which occurs in the alveoli, that permits oxygenation of the blood and keeps us alive.
What is the overall function of the respiratory system?
The overall function of the respiratory system is to facilitate the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the body and the environment. This process involves breathing in oxygen-rich air, transferring oxygen to the bloodstream, and removing carbon dioxide from the body. The respiratory system also helps regulate the body's pH balance and plays a role in vocalization.
What does huffing gas do to the body?
Huffing gas can cause the body organs to malfunction. Huffing gas does not only harm the respiratory system, but can harm the heart and brain.
Which gas is brought into the body and which is eliminated by the respiratory system?
oxygen and carbon dioxide
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.
What two body organ systems are involved in gas exchange?
The respiratory system and the circulatory system are involved in gas exchange. The respiratory system allows for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the lungs, while the circulatory system transports these gases between the lungs and the rest of the body's tissues.
What is the name of the organs responsible for the process of gas exchange?
The respiratory system functions in gas exchange. In doing so, it works closely with the circulatory system, and is aided by the nervous, muscular and skeletal systems.
Why is the respiratory system also considered an excretory system?
The respiratory system plays a role in excretion by removing carbon dioxide, a waste product of metabolism, from the body. When we breathe out, we are excreting this waste gas. This is why the respiratory system is also considered an excretory system.
