A very strong relationship. I'll take the easiest example :the bees. They are so important for our planet. Without them, we and all living creatures on earth would be on track to dispariton. Let me explain why. At first, the bees need the nectar from flowers to make honey ( source of food ). As they pollen from flower to flower, they transport pollen on their tiny little legs and in this way, they help the plants to reproduce themselves. If, for some reason, there will be no more bees. Plants and flowers will not thrive, plants will be eaten without having contribued to the productivity of the species and they will go out. No plants, no more veggies or fruits for herbivorous and humans, no more herbivorous no more food for carnivorous, etc. Also, without plants, there will be less oxygen on our planet. Slowly the fauna and flora will die on earth and then it will be our turn. That is why relationships with plants and insects are so important. Plants produce oxygen for all of us and they are a natural and healthy source of food and insects help plants to survive and thus save the species.

Humans, like other organisms, require energy for growth and repair. When cells create ATP for energy, carbon dioxide is produced

Answer:

The circulatory and respiratory systems interact to transport carbon dioxide to the lungs, where it is expelled from the body.

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide produced by the cells and tissues during cellular respiration is removed from the body through the interaction of the circulatory and respiratory system. The medium of transport of carbon dioxide is the blood which carries to the lungs, where it is expelled from the body in ordernto maintain homeostasis in the body.

Carbon dioxide molecules are transported in the blood from body tissues to the lungs in three ways:

1. Dissolution directly into the blood - due to its greater solubility in blood than oxygen, carbon dioxide is dissolved in blood plasma. On reaching the lungs, it leaves the blood by diffusion and is then expelled out of the body.

2. Binding to hemoglobin - carbon dioxide binds reversibly with haemoglobin in the red blood cells to form a molecule called carbaminohemoglobin. When it reaches the lungs, the carbon dioxide freely dissociate from the hemoglobin and is expelled from the body.

3. Carried as a bicarbonate ion - the majority of carbon dioxide molecules are carried as part of the bicarbonate buffer system. In this system, carbon dioxide diffuses into the red blood cells. The enzyme carbonic anhydrase within the red blood cells quickly converts the carbon dioxide into carbonic acid (H2CO3) which then dissociates into bicarbonate and hydrogen ions. The bicarbonate ions leaves the red blood cells in exchange for chloride ions in the plasma. The bicarbonate ions then travel in plasma to the lungs, where they enter the red blood cells again. It combines with hydrogen ions from the haemoglobin to form carbonic acid. Carbonic anhydrase breaks carbonic acid down into water and carbon dioxide which is then expelled from the lungs.
