The Cardiovascular System
The cardiovascular system is also known as the circulatory system.
Cardiovascular system
is made up of
the heart
blood
blood vessels

Circulation - The Body’s Transport System
The Cardiovascular System
The cardiovascular system
carries needed substances to
cells and carries waste products
away from cells. In addition,
blood contains cells that fight
disease.
For example, blood carries oxygen from
your lungs to your other body cells.
Blood also transports the glucose your cells
use to produce energy.
The blood also carries carbon dioxide to the
lungs, where it is exhaled.
Circulation - The Body’s Transport System
The heart is a hollow,
muscular organ that
pumps blood
throughout the body.
Each time the heart
beats, it pushes blood
throughout the blood
vessels of the
cardiovascular
system.
The Heart
Circulation - The Body’s Transport System
The right side of the
heart is completely
separated from the
left side by a wall of
tissue called the
septum.
The Heart
Circulation - The Body’s Transport System
Each side has an
upper chamber, or
atrium. These are
called the right atrium
and left atrium.
Each atrium receives
blood that comes into
the heart… the right
atrium receives blood
from the body while
the left atrium
receives blood from
the lungs.
The Heart
Circulation - The Body’s Transport System
Each side has a lower
chamber, or ventricle.
These are called the
right ventricle and left
ventricle.
Each ventricle pumps
blood out of the heart,
the right ventricle
pumping blood to the
lungs and the left
ventricle pumping
blood to all other parts
of the body.

The Heart
As blood flows out of the heart and toward the lungs, it
passes through a flap of tissue, known as a valve, like the
one here.
The valve prevents blood from flowing backward.
Circulation - The Body’s Transport System
Located in the right
atrium is a group of
heart cells called the
pacemaker, which
sends out signals that
make the heart
muscle contract. This
adjusts the speed of
the heart beat.
When muscle cells in
the ventricles
contract, the exert a
force on the blood.

Two Loops
Blood circulates through
the body in two loops,
with the heart at the
center. In the first loop,
blood travels from the
heart to the lungs and
then back to the heart. In
the second loop, blood is
pumped from the heart
throughout the body and
then returns to the heart.

Circulation - A Closer Look at Blood Vessels
Blood Vessels
The walls of arteries and veins have three layers. The
innermost layer is made up of epithelial cells. The
middle layer is mostly muscle tissue and the outer wall
is made up of flexible connective tissue.
Circulation - A Closer Look at Blood Vessels
Arteries
Arteries carry blood away
from the heart.
Pulse is caused by the
expanding and narrowing of
artery walls.
When you count pulse
beats, you are also counting
heartbeats.
Arteries control the amount
of blood that different
organs receive.
Circulation - A Closer Look at Blood Vessels
Capillaries
In the capillaries, materials are exchanged between the
blood and the body’s cells. Diffusion is one of the ways
this happens.
Circulation - A Closer Look at Blood Vessels
Veins
Veins carry blood back to
the heart.
Veins get help…
•Contraction of nearby
skeletal muscles
•Valves that prevent blood
from flowing backward
•Breathing movements that
squeeze veins in the chest

ARTERY
Artery and Vein
In this photo, you can compare the wall
of an artery with the wall of a vein.
Artery… The walls of arteries are very
thick and consist of three layers
Vein… Although the walls of veins also
consist of three layers, they are much
thinner than the walls of arteries.
VEIN

Blood Pressure
Blood pressure is the pressure that blood exerts against
the walls of blood vessels.
As blood moves away from the heart, the blood pressure
decreases.

Calculating a Rate
A rate is the speed at which something happens. When you
calculate a rate, you compare the number of events with the
time period in which they occur. Here’s how to calculate the
pulse rate of a person whose heart beats 142 times in two
minutes.
1. Write the comparison as a fraction:
2. Divide the numerator and the denominator by 2:
The person’s pulse rate is 71 heartbeats per minute.

Practice Problem
Calculate your pulse rate if your heart beats 170 times in 2.5
minutes.
68 beats per minute

Circulation - Blood and Lymph
Blood
Blood consists of liquid plasma and three kinds of cells—red
blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.
Circulation - Blood and Lymph
Blood Types
The marker molecules on your red blood cells determine
your blood type and the type of blood that you can safely
receive in transfusions.

Creating Data Tables:
Use the data to make a table
of the eight possible blood
types. Include columns for the
A, B, AB, and O blood types;
Rh factor (positive or
negative); and percentage of
the population.
The data should be arranged
in three columns and eight
rows.
