Food and nutrients in blood give energy to the muscles Muscles of the digestive system need oxygen to function digestive system sends messages to brain when your hungry or full Brain regulates heart rate and blood pressure Nutrients from food are provided for bones (calcium for strong bones) 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. Diaphragm, an involuntary muscle, forces breath in and out Blood, oxygen, and food are pumped to the muscles When there is a tear or injury in muscle nerves send messages to the brain Blood brings important nutrients from food (like calcium) to the bones
