How do the circulatory system and immune system work together to respond to an injury? (There will be three questions like this one on the test)
Increased blood flow kills healthy cells which prevents infection at the site of the injury
Increased blood flow allows for an increase in the exchange of O2 and CO2 at the site of the injury
Increased blood flow carries white blood cells to the site of the injury
