• The digestive system increases the rate of digestion and the excretory system ceases to provide tissues with more nutrients.

• The respiratory system increases the breathing rate and the circulatory system increases blood pressure to provide tissues with more oxygen

• The endocrine system releases hormones that prepare the immune system to deal with possible injuries

What two human systems work together to provide body cells with a constant supply of oxygen while removing carbon dioxide waste products?
