Respiratory System Circulatory
Takes waste products from the cells.
Acquires oxygen that the digestion system needs for cellular respiration.
Removes waste gases from the blood by sending them out of the body.
Transports oxygen and needed nutrients to the digestive system so it can maintain the organs.

The respiratory system and circulatory system work together with the digestive system in the following ways:
1. The respiratory system takes waste products, such as carbon dioxide, from the cells. During cellular respiration, glucose is broken down to produce energy, along with carbon dioxide as a waste product. The respiratory system helps remove this carbon dioxide from the body.
2. The respiratory system acquires oxygen that the digestive system needs for cellular respiration. Oxygen is necessary for the breakdown of food molecules to release energy in the form of ATP. The respiratory system ensures a constant supply of oxygen to the cells involved in digestion.
3. The respiratory system removes waste gases, including carbon dioxide, from the blood by sending them out of the body. As blood travels through the body, it picks up waste gases from various tissues. The respiratory system exchanges these waste gases for oxygen during the process of breathing.
4. The circulatory system transports oxygen and needed nutrients to the digestive system, ensuring that the organs involved in digestion receive adequate oxygen and nutrients. This allows for the maintenance and proper functioning of the digestive organs. Additionally, the circulatory system carries away waste products from digestion, such as metabolic byproducts and excess nutrients, to be eliminated from the body.
