Components of a Circulatory System
Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems:
1.A fluid that transports materials throughout the body
2. A network of tubes in which the fluid circulates
3.A pump that pushes the fluid through the tubes
![Page 4: Circulatory system. Components of a Circulatory System Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems: 1.A fluid that transports materials throughout](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c51fae/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Functions of a circulatory system
• delivers oxygen, nutrients, and hormones to cells
• carries metabolic wastes away from cells to the lungs and kidneys
• Helps distribute heat to maintain constant body temperature in warm-blooded animals
![Page 5: Circulatory system. Components of a Circulatory System Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems: 1.A fluid that transports materials throughout](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c51fae/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Why the need for circulation?• Unicellular organisms (bacteria, sponge, algae) do not
have a circulatory system. Use surface for exchange
•In larger multicellular organisms, body cells cannot move and do not come in contact with the external environment.•A circulatory system develops as an evolutionary adaptation
![Page 6: Circulatory system. Components of a Circulatory System Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems: 1.A fluid that transports materials throughout](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c51fae/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Open (circulatory) Systeme.g. insect, crustaceansno closed vessels - blood bathes the cells directlyNo distinction between blood and interstitial (tissue) fluid have one blood vessel that has chambers called sinusesHemolymph: mixture of blood and tissue fluids
![Page 7: Circulatory system. Components of a Circulatory System Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems: 1.A fluid that transports materials throughout](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c51fae/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
e.g. earthworms, frogs, birds, humans need faster blood flow to get O2 to all cells
blood contained in a network of true blood vessels that separate blood from tissues and interstitial fluidblood circulates in only one direction
Closed (circulatory) System
![Page 8: Circulatory system. Components of a Circulatory System Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems: 1.A fluid that transports materials throughout](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c51fae/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Blood
• average 4-5L in a human body
• Blood is a connective tissue
• When centrifuged, blood separates into two major components:
• Plasma(55%)
• Formed elements (45%)

The Heart
Ventricle: heart chamber that pumps blood to the body
Atrium: heart chamber that receives blood from the body
Septum (a wall of tissue)
![Page 19: Circulatory system. Components of a Circulatory System Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems: 1.A fluid that transports materials throughout](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c51fae/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Pathway of blood flow through the heart
Deoxygenated blood from rest of body to right atrium via superior and inferior vena cava right atrium right ventricle pulmonary artery lung where blood picks up O2 left atrium via pulmonary veins left ventricle oxygenated blood left heart via aorta to rest of the body
Blood from upper body
Blood from lower body https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSbbDnbSEyM
![Page 20: Circulatory system. Components of a Circulatory System Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems: 1.A fluid that transports materials throughout](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c51fae/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Cardiac (heart) SystemCirculates blood through tissues of the heart.
Pulmonary (lung) System
Circulates blood from heart, to lungs, & back to heart
Systemic SystemSupplies nutrients, O2 to body cells except for heart and lungsAlso picks up CO2
![Page 21: Circulatory system. Components of a Circulatory System Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems: 1.A fluid that transports materials throughout](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c51fae/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Blood Vessels
Red – Arteries (Oxygen rich
blood)
Blue – Veins (Oxygen poor
blood)The largest blood vessel has a diameter of 3 cm, the smallest between 5-10um•Three major types of blood vessels: arteries, veins and capillaries
![Page 22: Circulatory system. Components of a Circulatory System Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems: 1.A fluid that transports materials throughout](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c51fae/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
carry blood away from heart usually O2 rich (Except for pulmonary artery)
connective tissue and muscle - walls elastic and thick Pre-capillary sphincters control blood flow
Arteries
![Page 23: Circulatory system. Components of a Circulatory System Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems: 1.A fluid that transports materials throughout](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c51fae/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Arterioles = smaller arteries
Vasoconstriction:Decrease arterioles’ diameters restricting blood flow prevent heat loss to environment
Vasodilation:Increase arterioles’ diameters increasing blood flow facilitates heat loss to cool down(Flushing)
![Page 24: Circulatory system. Components of a Circulatory System Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems: 1.A fluid that transports materials throughout](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c51fae/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Veins carry blood to the heart usually O2 poor (Except for
pulmonary vein) Thinner walls and not elastic as
arteries valves push blood towards heart smooth surface
Varicose vein:Are veins that lose their elasticity as we ageLeads to blood pooling in the legs that results in bulging conditionWhen sitting or standing for a long time
![Page 25: Circulatory system. Components of a Circulatory System Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems: 1.A fluid that transports materials throughout](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c51fae/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Blood flow in veins Less pressure than arteries
(A)Small muscles surrounding the veins contract and relax to squeeze blood along the veins.
(B)One-way valves inside the veins prevent blood from flowing backward due to the pull of gravity
![Page 26: Circulatory system. Components of a Circulatory System Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems: 1.A fluid that transports materials throughout](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c51fae/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Arteries and Veins
![Page 27: Circulatory system. Components of a Circulatory System Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems: 1.A fluid that transports materials throughout](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c51fae/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Capillaries•Found in the muscles and lungs•Thin, semi-permeable wall- only a single cell layer thick•Very narrow; blood cells move through in single file•Cover a large surface area: no body cell is more than 2 cells away from a capillary•Movement of blood through capillaries is controlled by pre-capillary sphincters
Capillaries in the hand can leak excess fluid accumulates in the tissues due to an allergic
reaction
![Page 28: Circulatory system. Components of a Circulatory System Three fundamental features in all circulatory systems: 1.A fluid that transports materials throughout](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f345503460f94c51fae/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
• Carries blood away from the heart
