Examples of human body systems interactions

📚 Quick Study Guide

• 🧠 Nervous System & Muscular System: The nervous system sends signals to muscles, enabling movement. Think about quickly pulling your hand away from a hot stove.
• 🩸 Circulatory System & Respiratory System: The circulatory system transports oxygen (obtained from the respiratory system) to cells and removes carbon dioxide.
• 🍎 Digestive System & Endocrine System: The digestive system breaks down food, and the endocrine system regulates the release of glucose into the bloodstream.
• 💧 Excretory System & Circulatory System: The excretory system filters waste from the blood, which is circulated by the circulatory system.
• 💪 Skeletal System & Muscular System: Muscles attach to bones, allowing for movement and providing support.
