Human Body Unit Test How do the respiratory system and circulatory system interact? ( point)
In the lungs, carbon dioxide is transferred to the blood and carried by red blood cells Once it is distributed, the red blood cells
pick up oxygen and transport it back to the lungs, where is transferred to the lungs so it can be exhaled

The respiratory system and circulatory system do not interact because the respiratory system is related to breathing and the
circulatory system is related to blood.
In the lungs, air is transferred into the blood stream, where red blood cells deliver it to the heart. The heart then separates the
oxygen and sends it to the organs, while sending the waste back to the lungs to exhale
