Humans, like other organisms, require energy for growth and repair. When cells create ATP for energy, carbon dioxide is produced as a waste product. How does the body respond to this process in order to maintain homeostasis?

A.
The circulatory and digestive systems interact to move carbon dioxide to the stomach, where it helps to break down food.
B.
The digestive and respiratory systems interact to move carbon dioxide to the lower intestine, where it is transformed into methane.
C.
The circulatory and respiratory systems interact to transport carbon dioxide to the lungs, where it is expelled from the body.
D.
The nervous and urinary systems interact to move carbon dioxide to the kidneys, where it is absorbed into the bloodstream
