A human red blood cell has a cell membrane which bursts when it is put in a hypotonic solution and a plant cell has a cell wall, which protects the cell membrane from bursting, which gives the cell membrane support and keeps the water inside of water inside of the cell. The plant cell has a cell wall, and animal cell doesn't have any support.

The respiratory system ________.
Anton [14]

The correct answer is A. Provides body tissues with oxygen

Explanation:

The respiratory system includes different organs such as the lungs, diaphragm, trachea, etc. that allow organisms especially animals to exchange gases that are necessary to survive. This mainly occurs as oxygen is taken from air or water in the case of fish and other aquatic animals and this provides the body tissues with oxygen that is necessary for multiple processes and at the same time it takes out the carbon dioxide through exhalation. Considering this, it can be concluded the respiratory system provides body tissues with oxygen.
