The Urinary System works with the Respiratory System because they both have the job of getting waste out of the body, respiratory excretes carbon dioxide and urinary excretes urine. They are both in what is called the Excretory System. Also in the Excretory System is the Digestive system, because it produces stool, and the Integumentary System which produces sweat. The most obvious connection between the urinary system and another body system would be by the kidneys. The lymphatic/ circulatory system must pass through the kidneys, this is when the kidneys do their job in the urinary system where they filter through the blood and separate the bad things in it and then send it on its way again, holding onto what needs to be released from the body. 

A few problems that can occur with the Urinary System is Bladder Cancer, Kidney Stones, and an Overactive Bladder. Bladder Cancer cannot be fully prevented because of things like genetics and age and gender, but you can try to avoid it. By remaining healthy and avoiding things like smoking and chemicals, you can help yourself stay cancer free and try to better your chances of staying healthy. Some symptoms of bladder cancer can include blood in the urine, pain in the lower back, bone pain, being unable to urinate, having to urinate more than normal, and many other things. Kidney Stones are made of minerals and salts that form into small units inside the kidneys and have to pass through the urinary tract and may cause problems anywhere along the way. If found in time, there could be no long term problems, but if an infection or other urinary problem occurs, sometimes surgery is needed. Another urinary problem that could occur would be an overactive bladder. This causes people to feel the sudden need to go to the bathroom. Often this causes problems with people’s daily lives as it can affect their work life, social life, and schooling because of the inconsistency with their schedules. Sometimes people will also need to get up during the night many times, and sometimes urinate in their pants. This not only is an problem for the people physically, but can also be very embarrassing for them. 

The main purpose of the Lymphatic system is to drain and filter fluids, to distribute clean/filtered fluids back into the bloodstream in order to create consistency in the body, and to create a place for white blood cells to live. 

The spleen is the biggest and most important organ within the lymphatic system. This organ is important the process of storing blood and blood cells. The spleen works together with lymph nodes to attack any kind of bacteria or any potentially harmful virus by creating strong white blood cells. The spleen is something that can be removed, but it is then more likely for infections to occur. These cells are created and stored in the Thymus. Tonsils are used as the first organ to be a defender for the body. This is due to the reason that most infections and diseases that circulate through the body come via the mouth.
