CARDIOVASCULAR
SYSTEM
Health II
What is the purpose of the
cardiovascular system?
Together the heart, blood vessels, and blood work to
deliver materials, fight disease, and remove waste.
The cardiovascular system is essential for life.
This system is AKA the circulatory system.

RESPIRATORY
SYSTEM
Health II
What is the purpose of the Respiratory
system?
The respiratory system exchange gases between the
body and the environment.
The system removes carbon dioxide from the body and
provides it with oxygen.
Inhaling and exhaling causes the lungs to expand and
deflate. This process is known as respiration.
The continual exchange of gasses is essential for life.
