Food and nutrients in blood give energy to the muscles Blood brings important nutrients from food (like calcium) to the bones The liver removes waste products from the blood When there is a tear or injury in muscle nerves send messages to the brain Muscles of the digestive system need oxygen to function Blood, oxygen, and food are pumped to the muscles Controls the rate of breathing Nutrients from food are provided for bones (calcium for strong bones) Tells respiratory system to supply more oxygen when needed Ribs protect lungs Diaphragm, an involuntary muscle, forces breath in and out Oxygenated blood is pumped through the heart and then circulated through cells. Red blood cells move oxygen and carbon dioxide through the blood. Alveoli exchange gas with capillaries. Muscles work with bones to cause movement Brain regulates heart rate and blood pressure Spinal column protects the spinal cord. Skull protects the brain digestive system sends messages to brain when your hungry or full
