Despite their vast differences, the cardiovascular, respiratory, and urinary systems are interrelated. This course focuses on the structures and functions of each system. You will understand how the heart and vasculature distribute blood to target organs and tissues, how the body moves air for gas exchange, how the kidneys dynamically create urine, and how these systems work to maintain homeostasis through their effects on the blood.
