How do the circulatory system, respiratory system and digestive system function together and how do they meet?
Whoa....rather a complex question that requires an extensive answer to be complete and detailed. Even with my pretty good knowledge of anatomy I can't do it typing from memory. Let me refer you to my anatomy bible. It is the classic 1918 Anatomy of the Human Body by Bartleby. Even haven been written in 1918....it is still accurate. The human body hasn't changed. www.bartleby.com/107/ If the information you need isn't here...it doesn't exist.
How do the Digestive, Circulatory , and the Respiratory System work together to perfom cellular respiration?
My liv env hw is about how the Circulatory System, Digestive System, and Respiratory System interact with each other to perfom cellular respiration. Please answer this and be specific! Try making it a paragraph or longer! In need help!?
How is the digestive, respiratory, and circulatory system affected by subdural hematoma?
Once a subdural hematoma begins to compress the brain, you are in trouble. The circulatory system will show Cushing’s response, which is extreme hypertension. This is an attempt to restore cerebral circulation. It will result in reflex bradycardia. Breathing will become erratic, possibly Cheyne Stokes type respirations, which are deep and fast. Blood will be diverted away from the gut to supply the brain, so digestion will slow down or stop.
How does the digestive system, respiratory system and circulatory system interact each other?
The respiratory system takes in oxygen from the atmosphere and moves that oxygen into the bloodstream. The circulatory system then carries the oxygen to all the cells in the body and picks up carbon dioxide waste which it returns to the lungs. Carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood into the lungs and it is then exhaled into the atmosphere. The digestive system is dependent upon the respiratory system, because the digestive tract functions by using muscular contractions to break up food and move it along the tract. These muscles depend upon oxygen in order to function because without oxygen, the digestive tract would stop working. Similarly, your respiratory tract wouldn't be able to function without the products of digestion. In order to inhale, the respiratory muscles must contract. Muscles need fuel in order to contract, and the efforts of the digestive tract provide the cells of the respiratory muscles with fuel.
How are the digestive and respiratory system related?
Cells need to obtain things from the environment in order to obtain energy. The energy is used to move and make more cells, repair cells and make structures outside cells(extra cellular material). Both the respiratory and digestive system provide the material needed to achieve this. What are known as metabolic substrates. The respiratory system provides oxygen and gets rid of carbon dioxide. And the digestive system provides high energy compounds such as carbohydrates and fats to get energy, water electrolytes and amino acids for building proteins. Micronutrients vitamins and metals act as co enzymes, which assist in chemical reactions.
What are the major organs of digestive, respiratory, and circulatory system of the human body?
The digestive system: salivary glands (parotid, submaxillary), tongue, esophagus, stomach, duodenum, liver, gallbladder, gall ducts, pancreas, small intestine, large bowel and rectum.The respiratory system: voice box with vocal cords, trachea, major bronchi and bronchial tubes, bronchioles, which are the smaller bronchial tubes affected with bronchospasm in a person with asthma. The smallest unit in the air flow system are the alveoli. This is where the gas exchange takes place: CO2 leaves the red blood cells of the alveolar capillaries, O2 enters the red blood cells in the alveolar capillaries.The circulatory system: pulmonary veins coming from the alveoli that we just discussed under the previous point. For terminology of pulmonary arteries and veins see this blog: Ray Schilling's answer to Why does a large volume of deoxygenated blood return to the heart via the pulmonary vein from the bronchial arteries, to be pumped around the body? The pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood to the left heart, which gets pumped into the aorta. From there the arteries branch off and supply all of the organs with nutrients and oxygen. In the capillaries of the organs there are similar exchanges as in the lungs: CO2 from the organs gets into the red blood cells in the capillaries and is moved into the veins. At the same time the oxygen from the arteries leaves the red blood cells and gets into the organ tissues. After fusion of smaller veins into bigger veins the venous blood enters the right heart chamber. The pulmonary arteries transport the de-oxygenated blood into the lungs. As described above we now breathe out CO2 and the inhaled oxygen gets preferentially bound to the red blood cells in the alveolar capillaries. This completes the circulation circle.Here you have it: a brief review of the digestive, respiratory and circulatory systems.
How do the Respiratory, Circulatory, Digestive, Nervous, Muscular, and Skeletal system work together?
wow that's a tough question to answer since that involves a lot of systems. well I can say that the respiratory and the circulatory are very closely tied together because the respiratory involves the gases that are flowing through the body via the blood (circulatory). Therefore, the respiratory exchanges carbon dioxide and oxygen across the lungs by collecting the oxygen at the lungs and delivering it to the body and expelling the carbon dioxide that comes from the body out through the lungs. The arteries of the circulatory system are generally known for carrying oxygenated blood, except for the pulmonary artery which carries deoxygenated blood away from the heart to the lungs.Veins are known for carrying deoxygenated blood except for pulmonary vein which carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart. The muscular system ties in here because the heart is called cardiac muscle, and obviously this only makes up the heart. There is smooth muscle involved in the arteries (moving blood away from the heart) which help pump the blood around the body. The veins don't have this muscle, so they rely on one-way valves that move the blood only toward the heart and prevent backflow of blood. The nervous system can come into play also with the heart when you have a change in heart beat that speeds up or slows down the heart via neurotransmitters released to the heart telling it what to do. Now, under normal circumstances, the heart does not need the nervous system to beat, because it is myogenic, meaning it beats on its own. The nervous system simply tells the heart whether to speed up or slow down (it may also affect the carotid arteries in the neck; there are also sensors in both the heart and carotid arteries that are responsible for detecting changes in pressure and/or gas levels). The digestive system doesn't really come into play here except for to say that blood and oxygen are needed there too, and the nervous system also comes into play with the smooth muscle in the intestines and those organs sometimes. The skeletal system also doesn't really play a role but there are skeletal muscles (back to muscular) which are solely associated with bones. Hope this helps!
How do the respiratory system and circulatory system work together?
The Respitory system gets oxygen into the Circulatory system that takes the Oxygen, through the blood stream, to other parts of the body.
