Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:The respiratory system includes your lungs, air ways, and blood vessels. The lungs are the biggest part, and they fill with oxygen when you inhale, and remove carbon dioxide when you exhale. The circulatory system is cardiovascular, which means it's the heart. The heart pumps blood which transports nutrients and oxygen throughout the body.

The circulatory system and the respiratory system work together by providing cells with oxygen rich blood and also removing waste from cells and pumping the blood through the heart's chambers and filters the waste filled blood through the lungs and back through the body with more oxygen rich blood.
