The body absorbs nutrients through the small intestines. The blood transports these nutrients to every cell in the body. The blood also carries oxygen to every cell. The cells use the nutrients and oxygen to supply the energy the body needs. What three body-systems are working together in this situation? A. nervous, digestive, and circulatory systems
B. digestive, circulatory, and excretory systems
C. respiratory, circulatory, and digestive systems
D. circulatory, immune, and respiratory systems

(C) Respiratory, circulatory, and digestive systems

Explanation:

In this example, the respiratory system is being used because oxygen specifically is being transported through the bloodstream to the body. The way that oxygen enters the body and is stored until the blood can pick it up is of course through breathing! Another word for breathing is respiration and this involves the lungs, which all points to the respiratory system.

The circulatory system is being used due to the fact that blood specifically is being used to transport these nutrients and oxygen around the body. Blood passes through veins and arteries through the body and is all a part of the circulatory system!

Lasty, the digestive system is being used because the small intestines are absorbing nutrients and the intestines are where a majority of digestion takes place (hence, the digestive system).

Answering questions like these, or any question about body systems, means you need to know about what each system is and what it does. It can help to think about what body parts each system includes and one or two key words involved with that system. Ex. CIRCULATORY: blood. CARDIOVASCULAR: heart, capillaries, veins, arteries, pumping blood
