The circulatory system connects with the digestive system since, the lungs pump oxygen in to the blood and the heart pumps this blood all throughout the body using vessles/veins/arteries to all parts of the digestive system, since the organs need oxygen.
The circulatory system and digestive system connect through the vessels and the liver and large intestine, since blood is transported through the organs
Alzheimer's affects the excretory system because as the brain becomes more and more affected there is a high chance of bladder failure and rupturing.
Alzheimer's affects the circulatory system because as it progresses the body has trouble pumping blood, vessels and arteries become blocked and there is also trouble with breathing
Alzheimer's affects the digestive system because the body begins to have difficulty swallowing and the esophagus becomes swollen or blocked. Most patients with Alzheimers, have a tube inserted to aid with swallowing and reduce inflammation.
The excretory system and excretory system connect by the large intestine and kidneys, since the kidneys filter the liquid nutrients in the blood stream that is taken from the food matter in the large intestine
