Respiratory system · The respiratory system exchanges gases in the lungs. Oxygen enters the blood, and carbon dioxide leaves it to be breathed out.
Heart · The heart is the organ that pumps blood. Blood carries substances such as oxygen through the vessels.
True · The respiratory system passes oxygen into blood in the lungs. The circulatory system carries that oxygen to body tissues.
Stomach · Digestive enzymes work in the stomach to help break down food. Most nutrient absorption happens in the small intestine.
Artery, then vein · Arteries carry blood away from the heart. Veins carry blood back toward the heart.
Bones · Bones form the skeletal system. Many muscles pull on bones to produce movement.
Oxygen passes from blood to nearby cells. · In body tissues such as the arm, oxygen passes from blood in capillaries to nearby cells. Oxygen enters blood from air in the lungs.
The stomach digests food in the digestive system; the lungs exchange gases in the respiratory system. · The stomach digests food in the digestive system. The lungs exchange gases in the respiratory system. Maya has assigned the stomach the lungs' job and system.
