Discuss the interconnections of the cardiovascular system with each of the other major body systems introduced. Give specific examples of these interactions and explain their effect on homeostatic balance.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The interconnections of the cardiovascular system with each of the other major body systems is of the utmost importance for the health of the human body. The circulatory system's main function is to take blood to all the cells of our body. The instant the heart stops bombing blood to all the cells, organs, glands, and systems, the body stops its vital functions. The Circulatory system has a direct relation to the optimal operation of other systems such as the Respiratory system, the Reproductive system, the Digestive system, the Skeletal system, the Muscular system, the Lymphatic system, the Nervous system, and the Endocrine system.

cellular respiration oxidizes food into energy in the form of atps.

glycolysis (6 c hexose) > 2x atps are used > 6c hexose biphosphate > 2 x 3c triphosphate >

2 x 3c pyruvate (2x nadh produced from nad) and (4x atp produced)

pyruvate actively pumped mitochondrial matrix.
