<u>Excretes waste:</u> The excretion process, is done mainly by lungs (release of carbon dioxide), kidneys (elimination of excess compounds such as nitrogen) and the skin (sweat regulates temperature but also regulates the concentration of salts within the body)

<u>Nails:</u> It protects the soft tissues surrounding the distal phalanx, but it also exerts pressure over on the digits which allows more precission in the movements.

<u>Kidneys:</u> Eliminate waste from the blood and regulate body fluids, by generating urine.

How do the circulatory and respiratory system interact to provide muscle cells with oxygen during a long distance race?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Humans—and other complex multicellular organisms—have systems of organs that work together, carrying out processes that keep us alive.

The body has levels of organization that build on each other. Cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs, and organs make up organ systems.

The function of an organ system depends on the integrated activity of its organs. For instance, digestive system organs cooperate to process food.

The survival of the organism depends on the integrated activity of all the organ systems, often coordinated by the endocrine and nervous systems.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:d.are eventually replaced by electrons from photosytem 11

Explanation:there are two photosystems in the photosynthetic process.PSI and PS II. PS I has a reaction center called P700 because it's chlorophyll has a maximum absorption of 700nm wavelength.PSII has a reaction center called P680nm for similar reason.when an excited electron is transferred to P700,it becomes excited.this electron is passed down from from acceptor to another, until it is used to reduce NADP+ to NADPH.this electron is replaced when P680 gets excited by a photo of light and splits water to release electrons , protons and Oxygen
