• it is made of cardiac muscle tissue that helps you breath.

The digestive and respiratory systems pair together to ...

• bring carbon dioxide and wastes to cells for diffusion.

• bring oxygen and wastes to cells for diffusion.

• bring oxygen and nutrients to cells for cellular respiration.

• bring carbon dioxide and nutrients to cells for cellular respiration.
