• The circulatory system is made up of the vessels
  and the muscles that help and control the flow of
  the blood around the body. This process is called
  circulation. The main parts of the system are the
  heart, arteries, capillaries and veins.
• As blood begins to circulate, it leaves the heart
  from the left ventricle and goes into the aorta.
  The aorta is the largest artery in the body. The
  blood leaving the aorta is full of oxygen. This
  is important for the cells in the brain and the
  body to do their work. The oxygen rich blood
  travels throughout the body in its system of
  arteries into the smallest arterioles.
• On its way back to the heart, the blood travels
  through a system of veins. As it reaches the
  lungs, the carbon dioxide (a waste product) is
  removed from the blood and replace with fresh
  oxygen that we have inhaled through the lungs.
