Answer:

a. ALEVOLI

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct as of June 17th 2021 on unit 5 semester 2 of ap ex.

Think about it, even if you're not sure what answer is correct try and eliminate the ones that aren't. Aorta is part of the heart, so no. Hormones do not connect to any parts of the body, they are used to accomplish things needed for the body and are sent by proteins by the nervous system, so no. artieries carry blood away from the heart, they couldn't connect the respiratory system and circulatory system. So a.) must be the answer! It it actually I chose it and then thought you should know. But honestly this is a test, fyi, and you should've reviewed before. Have a great day!

Answer:

The correct answer is A) Alveoli

Step-by-step explanation:

The respiratory system works directly with the circulatory system to give oxygen to the body. Oxygen is taken in from the respiratory system and delivered into blood vessels that then circulate oxygen-rich blood to tissues and cells.

Alveoli which are tiny, balloon-shaped air sacs sit at the very end of the respiratory tree and are arranged in clusters throughout the lungs. They are a crucial part of the respiratory system whose function it is to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide molecules to and from the bloodstream.

Cheers!
