This edition of Science Screen Report explores the synergy of two different physiological systems: the respiratory system, for acquiring and processing oxygen, and the circulatory system, for the internal transportation of oxygen and nutrients. Emphasizing the vital roles of the heart, the lungs, capillary action, and Earth's oxygen-rich atmosphere, Energy for Life illustrates clear connections between concepts in anatomy and chemistry.
