Relationship Between the Cardiovascular and Urinary Systems

Question 1

What is the relationship between the Cardiovascular and Urinary systems?

Answer 1

1. The cardiovascular and Urinary system work together to maintain homeostasis in the body.
2. The cardiovascular system transports blood to the kidneys so that they can filter it.
3. The urinary system excretes waste and helps to regulate blood pressure by controlling the volume of blood.
4. In turn, the kidneys produce a hormone call erythropoietin that stimulates the production of new red blood cells in the cardiovascular system.
