• it is made of smooth muscle tissue that helps you breath.

• it is made of cardiac muscle tissue that helps you breath.

The digestive and respiratory systems pair together to ...

• bring carbon dioxide and wastes to cells for diffusion.

• bring oxygen and wastes to cells for diffusion.

• bring oxygen and nutrients to cells for cellular respiration.

• bring carbon dioxide and nutrients to cells for cellular respiration.

The digestive and respiratory rely on the ___ systems to transport needed materials to the cells.

• circlatory and excretory

• circulatory and muscular

• nervous and digestive

• nervous and skeletal

• blood is made in the bones.

• plasma carries nutrients.

• red blood cells carry oxygen.

• white blood cells fight infection.
