They provide oxygen and help the body regulate its breathing patterns

When homeostasis is achieved, then the blood remains at a constant pH balance a slightly acidic. Takes out blood from other places where u need it

∙ 15y agoThere are two main things that are kept in balance by the lung: The levels of oxygen and carbon-dioxide and the acid-base balance in the body. The main drive to removing C02 is through it's effect on blood pH. As C02 increases it reacts with water to form H+ and bicarbonate ions. One consequence of this is that an increase in acid in the blood (from ingesting certain foods or from breakdown of proteins from muscle tissue) also trigger an increase in breathing. This is so-called short term regulation as the ultimate balancer of acid-base levels are the kidneys and intestinal system.

∙ 11y agoAside from getting oxygen to cells so that they can undergo aerobic cellular respiration, the respiratory system also regulates acidity by removing excess carbon dioxide from the blood stream. Maintenance of blood pH is an important aspect of homeostasis, and carbon dioxide is a strong acidic agent, so a high level of carbon dioxide in the bloodstream will make blood more acidic.

What is the system that exchanges oxygen and carbon dioxide between blood and air?
This is mostly the respiratory system though it does include parts of the cardiovascular system.The respiratory system; more specifically, it happens in the alveoli of the lungs.
A group of organs and tissues that exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide between your body and the environment?
respiratory system
What substances regulate an organisms pH so it can maintain homeostasis?
There are three major systems that control pH levels. They are the respiratory system, the chemical and physiological buffering system, and the urinary system.
What is the relation between skeletal system and endocrine system?
The reproductive and endocrine systems both regulate the functions of the body. They rely on communication between cells to send and receive messages.
Describe the physiology of the digestive cardio vascular and respiratory systems in relation to energy metabolism?
(cardiovascular, respiratory and digestive) in relation to energy metabolism. Digestive system absorb energy through different methods, and cardiovascular works with lymphatic system to transfer those neutritions around the body. Respiratory system gives body O2 to help the mitochondria produce 34 ATP through Kreb cycle
What is the relation between the digestive system and the respiratory system?
the digestive system is obliviously for breaking and digesting food whereas the respiratory system is for breathing
What is the responsibility of the cardiovascular and respiratory system?
to maintain homeostasis
How does system help the maintain homeostasis?
There are two ways that the respiratory system maintain homeostasis. These are through gas exchange and regulation of blood pH.
How does the respiratory system provide homeostasis?
through gas exchange and regulatinng blood.
How does the respiratory system works in homeostasis with the other system?
kings evil? hey told ya that didn't I?
How does homeostasis affect the respiratory system?
it doesn't because omeostasis is when your body is in a natural normal position.
How does the respiratory system and the nervous system work together?
Respiratory system is controlled by Nervous system.That isthe major relation between them. Respiration is involuntary IE we cannot control it by our will.The Autonomous nervous system controls it. Medulla oblongata which is a part of the brain and nervous system controls such actions
How does the respiratory and digestive system work together to maintain homeostasis?
the respiratory system and the digestive system share the Pharynx. The Respiratory system contains the eppiglottis, which keeps food going down the esophogus instead of the trachea
What body system transports gases between the lungs and body cells?
Respiratory system
How does homeostasis maintain the respiratory system?
it gives gases in exchangedthrough gas exchange and regulatinng blood.When ever you cough or when you sneeze.
What is a grasshoppers homeostasis?
Like other anthropods, grasshoppers maintain homeostasis by shedding their exoskeleton periodically. They also have a heart muscle to pump blood through their body and have a regulated respiratory system.
What system are the lungs part of?
The lungs are part of the respiratory system. The respiratory system is involved in the intake and exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between an organism and the environment.
