Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Bone receives up to about 10% of cardiac output, and this blood supply permits a much higher degree of cellularity, remodelling and repair than is possible in cartilage, which is avascular.
Detailed explanation-2: -Which best compares the respiratory system to the circulatory system? The respiratory system transports oxygen to cells, while the circulatory system provides oxygen for cells.
Detailed explanation-3: -Return of blood to the heart, especially from the legs, is facilitated by the skeletal muscle pump. Deep-lying veins are compressed by skeletal muscle, forcing blood through the circulatory system back to the heart.
