Cardiorespiratory system

Molecular classification
Other (system/organ level; not a molecule, receptor, enzyme, ion channel, or transporter)
01

Overview

The cardiorespiratory system consists of the heart, blood vessels, and lungs, functioning together to supply oxygen to tissues and remove carbon dioxide and metabolic waste[3][7]. Its performance is often measured as cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), which reflects the capacity of both cardiovascular and respiratory function during sustained activity and is associated with morbidity and mortality risk[1]. Disorders of the cardiorespiratory system include a wide array of cardiovascular and respiratory diseases.
