Transcript Circulatory System

Story
 In the middle of the night, a truck rolls rapidly
through the darkness. Loaded with fresh fruits and
vegetables, the truck is headed for the super market.
The driver steers off the interstate and onto a smaller
highway. Finally, after driving through narrow city
streets, the truck reaches its destination. As dawn
begins to break, store workers unload the cargo. They
work quickly because other trucks-
Story Cont.
 Carrying meats, canned goods and freshly bakes
breads- are waiting to be unloaded. And while
workers fill the store with products to be sold, a
garbage truck removes yesterday's trash. All these
trucks have traveled long distances over roads.
Without a huge network of roads, big and small, the
supermarket’s couldn’t stay in business.

 Like the _______that
link all the parts of the country,
highway
your body has a “___________”
network, called the
circulatory

part of the
body to _________are
carried by________.
another
blood
 Ex. Blood carries oxygen from your lungs to your body.
Waste Products
 The circulatory system also ________up
picks
________products
from_______.
waste
cells
 Ex. When cells use glucose (sugar), they produce carbon
dioxide as a waste product. The carbon dioxide passes
from the cells into the blood. The circulatory system
then carries the carbon dioxide to the lungs, where it is
exhaled.
Disease Fighters
 The circulatory system also __________cells
that
transports
attack ____________causing
microorganisms.
disease
sick
 This helps keep you from getting_______.
 If you do get sick, these disease fighting blood cells will
kill the microorganisms to help you get well.

Heart’s Structure
 Heart has ______sides—_______________
two
Right and Left
chambers Each side has ______compartments
or _________
two
upper and lower
 Upper chambers are called _________or
atria
Atrium
 The atrium receives blood that comes INTO the heart.
 Lower chambers are called___________
Ventricles
 Ventricles pump blood OUT of the heart
 The atria are ____________from
the ventricles
separated
by_______
valves
 Valves are flaps of tissue that prevents blood from
flowing backward
Hearts Structure

of body.

How the Heart Works
 Your heart goes through two
______main phases
fills
 Relaxation (muscle): when the heart _____with
blood
 Contraction (muscle): pumps
_______blood forward

When the heart muscle relaxes, blood flows into the
chambers, the atria contract, sending blood through valves
into the ventricles. Next the ventricles contract squeezing
blood out to the body.
 This ALL happens in less than a second!
Regulation of Heartbeat
 The ___________sends
out __________that
makes the
pacemaker
signals
heart muscle contract.
constantly
 The pacemaker ____________receives
messages about
adjusts
the body’s oxygen needs and __________the
heart rate
to match.
 Ex. heart beats much faster when exercising versus
sitting due to body needing more oxygen
Blood Vessels
three
 Your body has ________kinds
of blood vessels.
oxygenated
 Arteries: carries _____________blood
away from the
heart

From the arteries, blood flows into capillaries
 Capillaries: tiny vessels (one cell thick) where
exchanged
substances are _____________between
the blood and
body cells
Oxygen, glucose one way (arteries). waste the other (veins)
From capillaries, blood flows into veins

 _________:
vessels that carry ______________blood
back
Veins
deoxygenated
to heart
Fact
 If you lightly touch the inside of your wrist, or the side
of your throat, you can feel the artery rise and fall
repeatedly---this is your pulse.

red blood cells (RBC),
white blood cells (WBC), plasma, platelets.

 White blood cells: produced in ________marrow.
 Your bodies ________fighter

 Less WBC--One WBC to every 500-1000 RBC

 Plasma: Most of the material ______________travels
transported
on plasma.
