Question

The digestive, circulatory, respiratory, immune, and excretory systems all work together to maintain homeostasis. Discuss how a minor malfunction in one of these systems could lead to major malfunctions in others. If methods were developed to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of one system, what effect might that improvement have on the other systems?

Answer 1

All systems are dependent of each other. For example, the Digestive system shut down the body wouldn't get the energy required so the whole body would shut down. If the circlatory system shut down, the body wouldn't get oxygenated blood to the body so again, everything would shut down. If the respiratory system shut down, oxygen couldn't be taken into the blood and you guessed it, the body would shut down. If the Immune system shut down, simple illnesses like the cold or fever who be very dangorous to the body's health. Lastly, if the excretory system shut down, there would be no why to get the waste from the body out.

Hope this helped ( Sorry I couldn't answer the last question, I didn't have time )

IF one little things comes in the body the immune system would have to fight it out but if the immune systems miss it then it can double and more can come..
