I. Your Cardiovascular System
•This system consists of a collection of organs that transport blood throughout the body.
•“Cardio”-heart•“Vascular”-blood vessel
![Page 4: D2: Circulation and Respiration](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568131a8550346895d9816ca/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
I. Your Cardiovascular System• The blood vessels carry
blood pumped by the heart.
• Your main blood vessels include:
▫ Arteries▫ Capillaries▫ Veins
![Page 5: D2: Circulation and Respiration](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568131a8550346895d9816ca/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
II. The Heart
•As we discussed in our previous chapter, our heart is mostly made up of cardiac muscle tissue.
•In humans, our heart is about the size of our fist.
•Your heart also consists of fours separate chambers known as atria and ventricles.
![Page 6: D2: Circulation and Respiration](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568131a8550346895d9816ca/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
II. The Heart•Each atrium is a part of the upper
chamber of the heart.
•Each ventricle is a part of the lower chamber of the heart.
•The right side of your heart pumps oxygen-poor blood to the lungs.
•The left side of your heart pumps oxygen-rich blood to the rest of your body.
![Page 7: D2: Circulation and Respiration](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568131a8550346895d9816ca/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
II. The Heart
•Flap-like structures called valves are located between the atria and the ventricles and well as in places where large arteries are attached to the heart.
•As blood flows through the heart these valves open and close to prevent blood from going backwards.
![Page 8: D2: Circulation and Respiration](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568131a8550346895d9816ca/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
II. The Heart• Why does your heart go
“lub-dub,” lub-dub”?
• The sound of a beating heart is caused by the valves closing.

II. The Heart• Let’s go through the flow
of blood found in Figure 3 on p. 31.

III. Blood Vessels
•Blood vessels are hollow tube structures that blood travels through.
•Veins=De-oxygenized blood•Artery=Oxygenized blood
•Capillaries=Small blood vessels
![Page 11: D2: Circulation and Respiration](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568131a8550346895d9816ca/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
A. Arteries• A blood vessel that carries
blood away from the heart to the body’s organs.
• Have thick walls, which contain a layer of smooth muscle.
• Blood pressure is caused by your heart pumping blood.
• Your pulse is the rhythmic change your blood pressure.
![Page 12: D2: Circulation and Respiration](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568131a8550346895d9816ca/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
B. Capillaries• A tiny blood vessel that
allows an exchange between blood and cells in other tissue.
• Blood cells give up oxygen and nutrients as they pass through.
• Body cells give up wastes and carbon dioxide.
• Capillaries are so small that blood cells must pass through single file.
![Page 13: D2: Circulation and Respiration](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568131a8550346895d9816ca/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
C. Veins• A blood vessel that carries
blood back to the heart.
• Skeletal and Smooth muscles both push blood towards the heart.

IV. Two Types of Circulation
•Pulmonary Circulation:▫The Flow of blood from the heart to the
lungs and back to the heart through the pulmonary arteries, capillaries, and veins.
•Systemic Circulation:▫The flow of blood from the heart to all parts
of the body and back to the heart.
![Page 15: D2: Circulation and Respiration](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568131a8550346895d9816ca/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
IV. Two Types of Circulation
•Here is the order of blood circulation beginning in the Right Ventricle.1. Right ventricle pumps blood into the
pulmonary artery (Oxygen-poor blood).2. This blood passes through capillaries
found in the lungs to take in oxygen.3. This oxygen-rich blood passes through
the pulmonary vein and back into the heart.
4. Pulmonary Circulation complete!
![Page 16: D2: Circulation and Respiration](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568131a8550346895d9816ca/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
IV. Two Types of Circulation5. The Left Ventricle then pumps oxygen-rich
blood into the aorta. 6. The pressure pushes blood throughout body
passing oxygen to all of the body’s cells.7. As it passes through the capillaries, wastes
and carbon dioxide are carried away from the cells.
8. Oxygen-poor blood passes back through the main veins and returns to the Right atria.
9. Systemic Circulation complete. 10.REPEAT!

V. Cardiovascular Problems• Cardiovascular problems can be cause by
several different things including:▫Smoking▫High levels of cholesterol in blood▫Stress▫Physical Inactivity▫Poor eating habits▫Heredity
• Exercise and a proper diet can reduce these problems.
![Page 18: D2: Circulation and Respiration](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568131a8550346895d9816ca/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
V. Cardiovascular Problems• Atherosclerosis
▫ Results when cholesterol builds up inside blood vessels.
▫ Platelets can often stick together, which can also lead to blockages.
▫ This narrows the blood vessels and makes them less elastic.
▫ This continued blockage can eventually lead to a heart attack.
![Page 19: D2: Circulation and Respiration](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568131a8550346895d9816ca/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
V. Cardiovascular Problems• High Blood Pressure
▫ Hypertension Abnormally high blood
pressure.▫ This can lead to:
Heart attack Heart failure Kidney disease Stroke
Blood vessel in the brain becomes blocked or ruptures.
![Page 20: D2: Circulation and Respiration](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568131a8550346895d9816ca/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
V. Cardiovascular Problems• Heart Attack
▫ Occurs when heart muscle cells die and part of the heart muscle is damaged.
▫ May result from a blockage in an artery or vein.
▫ If the heart does not receive oxygen, hearts cells quickly die and may stop.
• Heart Failure▫ Occurs when the heart
cannot pump enough blood to meet the body’s needs.
▫ Vital organs, such as the brain, lungs, and kidneys, may get damaged by lack of oxygen or a build-up of waste materials.
