Answer

a system for circulating blood throughout the body.

a network that carries messages between the brain and the rest of the body.

Explanation

The nervous system is made up of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, which carry messages between the brain and the rest of the body. Supporting the body’s structure is the skeletal system, circulating blood is the circulatory system, and hormone-secreting glands belong to the endocrine system. So the correct choice is “a network that carries messages between the brain and the rest of the body.”
