Red blood cells,carrying dioxide(a waste product of cellular respiration) travel in the blood vessel to the lung; to get rid of
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Red blood cells or erythrocytes carry oxygen to the cells of the body so that they can have energy and function properly. This is not the only function of red blood cells. Also, they carry dioxide, which is a waste product that needs to be out of our body. Erythrocytes carry the dioxide to the lungs, specifically to the alveoli. In the alveoli due to the inhalation, oxygen enters our body traveling up to the lungs, specifically to the alveoli, where thanks to the thin wall of it as well as the one on the capillaries that are in contact with it, the dioxide enters the lungs to be expelled in the exhalation, and the oxygen is taken by the red blood cells to be used in the cellular respiration and generate energy to keep the vital functions of our body.

polet [3.4K]

Similarity

Both nervous and endocrine system are similar in a way that they perform the regulatory function in the body and act as regulator in various body functions.

Difference

1. nervous  system uses  electrical impulses (neural)for signaling while endocrine system  uses chemical signals called hormones, which travel through the bloodstream and control the actions of cells and organs.

2. The nervous system can respond quickly to stimuli, through the use of action potentials and neurotransmitters. Responses to nervous system stimulation are typically quick but short lived. The endocrine system responds to stimulation by secreting hormones into the circulatory system that travel to the target tissue.
