What does the circulatory system distribute to the body as it works wit the respiratory system?

The circulatory system distributes oxygen to body tissues as it works with the respiratory system. It also helps bring carbon dioxide back to the lungs so that it can be expelled.

Does circulatory system transport digested food around your body?

Yes, off course, it supplies the blood needed by the organs to move and to produce their various substances needed for digestion

Where is a giraffes heart located?

gorilla's heart is located in its chest..........

Why does the endocrine system depend on the circulatory system?

hormones from the endocrine system are transported through blood

What do you think is the main functions of the circulatory system?

The main function of the circulatory system is to carry oxygen, nutrients and wastes to and from the body tissues. Its main organs are the heart and blood vessels.

What is the general path taken by blood through the circulatory system?

There are two paths

  1. pulmonary circulation- covers short distances as blood flows from heart to lungs trough pulmonary artery and returns back immediately through pulmonary vein.
  2. systemic circulation- blood is carried by aorta to all parts of the body and is brought back by pulmonary vein.

How many white cells are in the circulatory system?

There are billions of white blood cells that are in the circulatory system. A normal white blood count is between 4,500 to 10,000 white blood cells per microliter.

List to reasons why the heart beats faster when not exercising?

1. You are moving at a fast pace so your whole body needs oxygen faster.

Is immune system a circulatory system?

no, Immune system is your body defender from bacteria. think of the Immune system as your body warrior, and the circulatory system you can think of it as your airport or transportation system were it takes your passengers (red blood cells, white blood cells, oxygen particles and carbon dioxide) to all different parts of your body however, when the oxygen goes in; it violates the laws (by becoming carbon dioxide) so the body needs to exile it by removing it out of the body and finds shelter in plants :)

hope that helps :)

How does a differential leukocyte count aid in medical diagnoses?

Leukocytes come in different types: Lymphocytes, Neutrophils (which can be segmented or banded), Monocytes, Basophils and Eosinophils. A differential leukocyte count means they count the ammount of each type of leukocyte, this can be expressed in percentage or absolut values.

This has a great value for medical diagnosis, since variations in different leukocytes can be indicative of certain diseases. For example, in HIV infection, the number of lymphocytes diminish progressively. Eosinophils can be high during allergic reactions or SOME parasitic infections. Large ammounts of neutrophils (with bands over 7%, which is called "left shift") can be found in bacterial infections. Any of the types could be increased in cases of leukemia or lymphoma. Although these changes are no definitive proof for any disease, they help the medic to arrive to a proper diagnosis.

What are the physical liaisons between the circulatory and digestive system of a frog?

In humans the two systems are related like so. After the food goes through the stomach which chemically digests the foods with enzymes, the food passes to the small intestine which finishes the digestion process. The food then makes it'a way to the big intestin. in the big intestine veins absorb the nutriments from what is now feces. These nutriments travel through the blood stream and feeds the cells (supplies them with energy) kinda like the O2 does.

How is the respiratory circulatory and the digestive system interdependent?

All the human systems are interrelated on some manner. Digestive, circulatory and respiratory are the main systems, all of them managed by the CNS in the brain. They are interdependent because they need a common factor to keep on functioning: the blood.

Describe is the movement of blood through the circulatory system?

The deoxygenated blood will enter the heart through the superior and inferior vena cava (the main veins), and will flow into the right atrium. When the right atrium contracts, the blood will go through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. When the right ventricle contracts, the blood will go through the pulmonary valve into the pulmonary artery. From there it will go to the lungs where it will undergo an oxygen-carbon dioxide gas exchange in the capillaries surrounding the alveoli. The now oxygenated blood will then leave the lungs and go through the pulmonary vein into the left atrium. It will then go through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. When the left ventricle contracts, it will pass through the aortic valve into the aorta. From the artery it will be distributed throughout the body where it will drop off the oxygen and other substances in various cells. The now deoxygenated blood will return to the heart through the superior and inferior vena cava and start the whole process again. Hope this helps!

How does the circulatory system help the respiratory system get rid of gaseous wastes?

Your circulatory system also removes wastes from your body cells. Also the circulatory system carries the blood with the wastes until it eaches your respiratory system.
Respiration is the term for the exchange of oxygen.The circulatory system releases CO2 or gaseous wastes to the lung where it is exhaled from the body.

How does pneumonia affect the circulatory system?

CopD can affect this system because the lungs can't take in as much oxygen so air can't go to the organs that need them. In other words, CopD can contribute to a lot of things but can't when there is not enough air. Many people have CopD and it is becoming more common. To me, CopD is becoming more common because people smoke and as much as smoking is common, that too is also becoming more common. I hope that I clearly answered this question. Thank you.

What are the main organs of the circulatory system and their jobs?

The 3 main Parts of Circulatory System and it's Functions

  1. HEART/ARTERIES- Pumps Blood to the Blood Vessels.
  2. BLOOD VESSELS/VEINS- After the Heart pumps the blood it goes to Blood Vessels.
  3. BLOOD/CAPILLARIES- Without Blood the heart wouldn't pump something and nothings gonna bring the Nutrients and the Carbone Dioxide through its proper place.

What three body systems work to help you move?

The nervous system, muscular system and skeletal system function together to control the parts of the body. The nervous system sends the signal to different regions of the body.

How can you the oxygen you bring into your body get into the circulatory system?

The oxygen in each breath is circuited to the lungs where the alveoli absorb the oxygen and passed to the blood cells. The blood cells enter the heart where the oxygenated blood is circulated where needed.

How does the earthworm obtain oxygen without a respiratory system?

Earthworms do not have lungs, however, they breath through their skin like other aquatic animals.
