How does the water cycle show how the hydrosphere and atmosphere interact?

• Plants soak up water from the ground.

• Air evaporates to form water vapor clouds.

• Water filters through the soil into groundwater.

• Heat and wind cause water in a pond to evaporate into the air.

Select the two systems that are interacting together

Blood vessels carry red blood cells to the lungs, to get rid of carbon dioxide and pick up oxygen that has been breathed in. The heart pumps red blood cells carrying oxygen from lungs to all cells in the body and back to the lungs once the oxygen has been used up.

• Cardiovascular / Circulatory

• Nervous

• Respiratory

• Muscular

Select the two systems that are interacting together:

Blood vessels carry nutrients (like glucose) and oxygen to the muscle cells that

need them. Blood vessels take away carbon dioxide and waste from muscle

cells.

• Cardiovascular / Circulatory

• Nervous

• Muscular

• Respiratory

• A) Digestive and Respiratory

• B) Circulatory and Muscular

• C) Photosynthetic and Respiratory

• D) Photosynthetic and Digestive
