How does the digestive system and the circulatory system work in conjunction during digestion?

Answer 1

First, with the help of digestive system the food is broken down into smaller pieces which we eat and nutrients are separated which are further transported with the help of blood circulatory system.

Answer 2

Please correct me if I am wrong:

What happens to food in your body?

Claim: The food in your body breaks down and moves into the cells for more energy to build up.

Evidence: (what I need help with) The digestive system breaks down foods into the components of amino acids, simple sugars, and fatty acids. This process also releases the micro-nutrients such as vitamins and minerals, which are then transported to where they are needed. The oxygen helps break down the food to enter through the digestive system which uses the respiratory system. The circulatory system carries the tiny pieces of food through the blood and veins with cells to create nutrients and energy for our body.

I need some scientific principles as well. 😊

Answer 3

The circulatory system brings nutrients and oxygen to the digestive system. Also the circulatory system takes wastes away from the digestive system.

The digestive system carrys the nutrients through the cells.

and that is what I think

Answer 4

step 1. The food is swallowed and digested in the stomach and small intestines into basic nutrients, e.g. glucose.

step 2. The glucose and other nutrients then diffuse across the wall of the small intestine into the blood. ( I think the blood plasma, which is a fluid in the blood, carries glucose )

step 3. The blood then is pumped around the body by the heart, to supply cells in the muscles with oxygen and glucose from the blood plasma.

step 4. The concentration of the nutrient in the body cells needing it is lower than the concentration of the nutrient in the blood, so the blood follows a concentration gradient, and naturally diffuses out of the blood and into the cell

Answer 5

Answer 6

=The digestive system breaks down food so that it can be absorbed into the circulatory system. It then carries the nutrients to the tissues to use and removes metabolic wastes.=

Answer 7

The digestive system breaks down food into nutrients, and allows them to be absorbed into the circulatory system. The circulatory system then carries these nutrients to all body cells.
