Step-by-step solution
Coordination refers to the process by which two or more organs interact and complement each other's functions in order to maintain homeostasis When physical exercise is performed, the supply of oxygen increases to meet the increased energy demand. When physical exercise is stopped, the activities of nerves, lungs, heart and kidney gradually return to their normal conditions. The neural system and the endocrine system jointly coordinate and integrate all the activities of the organs so that they function in a synchr
