A proper balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide must be maintained in the human body to survive. Which of the following body systems is responsible for taking in and releasing these gases to ensure homeostasis?

A. Digestive System
B. Excretory System
C. Circulatory System
D. Respiratory System

Respuesta :

Answer:

D. Respiratory System

Explanation:

The system acts to reverse the direction of change. Since this tends to keep things constant, it allows the maintenance of homeostatic balance. For instance, when the concentration of carbon dioxide in the human body increases, the lungs are signaled to increase their activity and exhale more carbon dioxide, (your breathing rate increases).

D: Respiratory System
