Body Systems Interactions

How do the skeletal and circulatory systems relate to each other?

• Bone marrow produces blood.

• The heart is made of cardiac muscle tissue.

• The heart is held in place in the chest by ligaments.

• The blood brings carbon dioxide and glucose to the cells of the bones.

All organ systems have this at its most basic unit.

• Cells

• Neurons

• Tissues

• Organs
