1. well it rubs the lotion..
2. I can give you one real quick. It works with the cardiovascular system by being the source of the marrow that creates new red blood cells.
3. the five systems it interacts with - 1. Nervous System - the vertebral column holds the spinal cord, needed for nervous connections throughout the body. 2. Cardiovascular System - Red Bone Marrow produces erythrocytes. 3. Endocrine System - The adrenal glands secrete erythropoietin which stimulates red blood cell production in the red bone marrow. 4. Respiratory System - The hyoid bone prevents collapse of the windpipe, therefore, allowing us to breathe. 5. Muscle System - The skeletal muscles have insertions to the bones for support and movement.
