Cardiovascular System
  • Includes your heart, blood and vessels
    (Arteries Veins)
  • Bring Oxygen and Nutrients to the body and
    removes waste.

4
HEART
  • Made of cardiac muscle
  • Right atrium
  • Left atrium
  • These are at the top of the heart and contract
    together
  • Right ventricle
  • Left ventricle
  • These are at the bottom of the heart and contract
    together

5
Heart
  • Valves one way and separate the atrium from
    ventricle to prevent blood backflow
  • The wall separates the two sides of the heart to
    prevent OXYGENATED blood from mixing with
    deoxygenated blood.

6
Types of Circulation
  • Coronary to and from the heart
  • Pulmonary to and from lungs
  • Systemic to and from the body

7
Blood vessels
  • Artery (Oxygenated) takes blood away from heart
    (red)
  • Vein (Deoxygenated) takes blood to the heart.
    (blue)
  • Capillaries (one cell) microscopic vessels
    where arteries and veins meet (purple)

8
Parts of Blood
  • White blood cells fights infection
  • Red blood cells carry oxygen (hemoglobin)
  • Platelets clot the blood
  • Plasma nutrients and minerals
