The correct answer is the respiratory system. The respiratory system is the organ system that helps get oxygen into your blood and removes carbon dioxide. The respiratory system includes the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs. It is involved in gas exchange. Deoxygenated blood gets to the lungs via the pulmonary arteries, and carbon dioxide is removed from the blood, and oxygen diffuses into the blood during the gaseous exchange. The oxygenated blood leaves the lungs via pulmonary veins into the left atrium.

The respiratory system and the circulatory system work hand to hand to help get oxygen into the blood and removes carbon dioxide. The circulatory system consists of the heart, the arteries, veins, and capillaries. The circulatory system carries deoxygenated blood from the body to the lungs and carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the rest of the body.

There are many organ systems in the body to perform functions so that the body will work properly. The circulatory system mainly involves the blood and heart. It moves the blood around the body, so that this important fluid moves to the other organs of the body in order for them to function properly. Without blood, none of the organ systems can work. They would eventually fail and the organs would die.

Specifically, the circulatory system works in accordance with the lymphatic system. It would also help get oxygen into the blood through the use of the respiratory system since oxygen is in the lungs. It would also remove carbon dioxide. Other organ systems include the endocrine system, the nervous system and the skeletal system.
