Exchange of materials
• Animal cells exchange material across their
cell membrane
– fuels for energy
– nutrients
– oxygen
– waste (urea, CO2)
• If you are a 1-cell organism that’s easy!
– diffusion
• If you are many-celled that’s harder
Overcoming limitations of diffusion
Minimizes the distance that
substances must diffuse

Animal Circulatory Systems
• All animals have:
– circulatory fluid = “blood”
– tubes = blood vessels
– muscular pump = heart
open
hemolymph
closed
blood
Open circulatory system
• invertebrates
• insects,
arthropods,
mollusks
• Structure
– no separation
between blood &
interstitial fluid
• hemolymph
Closed circulatory system
• Invertebrates
• earthworms, squid,
octopuses
• Vertebrates
• Structure
– blood confined to vessels &
separate from interstitial
fluid
• 1 or more hearts
• large vessels to smaller
vessels
• material diffuses between
blood vessels &
interstitial fluid
closed system = higher pressures
Vertebrate circulatory system
• Adaptations in closed system
– number of heart chambers differs

What’s the adaptive value of a 4 chamber heart?
4 chamber heart is double pump = separates oxygen-rich & oxygen-poor
blood; maintains high pressure

Evolution of 4-chambered heart
• Selective forces
– increase body size
• protection from predation
• bigger body = bigger stomach for herbivores
– endothermy
• can colonize more habitats
– flight
• decrease predation & increase prey capture
• Effect of higher metabolic rate
– greater need for energy, fuels, O2, waste
removal
• endothermic animals need 10x energy
• need to deliver 10x fuel & O2 to cells
convergent
evolution
Vertebrate cardiovascular system
• Chambered heart
– atrium = receive blood
– ventricle = pump blood out
• Blood vessels
– arteries = carry blood away from heart
• arterioles
– veins = return blood to heart
• venules
– capillaries = thin wall, exchange / diffusion
• capillary beds = networks of capillaries

Arteries: Built for high pressure pump
• Arteries
– thicker walls
• provide strength for high pressure
pumping of blood
– narrower diameter
– elasticity
• elastic recoil helps
maintain blood
pressure even
when heart relaxes
Veins: Built for low pressure flow
• Veins
– thinner-walled
– wider diameter
Blood flows
toward heart
Open valve
• blood travels back to heart
at low velocity & pressure
• lower pressure
– distant from heart
– blood must flow by skeletal muscle contractions
when we move
Closed valve
» squeeze blood through veins
– valves
• in larger veins one-way valves
allow blood to flow only toward heart
Capillaries: Built for exchange
• Capillaries
– very thin walls
• lack 2 outer wall layers
• only endothelium
– enhances exchange across
capillary
– diffusion
• exchange between blood &
cells
Controlling blood flow to tissues
• Blood flow in capillaries controlled by
pre-capillary sphincters
• supply varies as blood is needed
• after a meal, blood supply to digestive tract increases
• during strenuous exercise, blood is diverted from digestive tract to
skeletal muscles
– capillaries in brain, heart, kidneys & liver usually filled to
capacity
sphincters open
sphincters closed
Exchange across capillary walls
Fluid & solutes flows out
of capillaries to tissues
due to blood pressure
Lymphatic

Interstitial fluid flows
back into capillaries

Heart valves
• 4 valves in the heart
– flaps of connective tissue
– prevent backflow
SL
• Atrioventricular (AV) valve
– between atrium & ventricle
– keeps blood from flowing back
into atria when ventricles contract
• “lub”
• Semilunar valves
– between ventricle & arteries
– prevent backflow from arteries into
ventricles while they are relaxing
• “dupp”
AV

Lub-dupp, lub-dupp
• Heart sounds
– closing of valves
– “Lub”
SL
• recoil of blood against
closed AV valves
– “Dupp”
AV
AV
• recoil of blood against
semilunar valves
• Heart murmur
– defect in valves causes hissing sound when stream of
blood squirts backward through valve
Cardiac cycle
• 1 complete sequence of pumping
– heart contracts & pumps
– heart relaxes & chambers fill
– contraction phase
• systole
• ventricles pumps blood out
– relaxation phase
• diastole
• atria refill with blood

Measurement of blood pressure
• High Blood Pressure (hypertension)
– if top number (systolic pumping) > 150
– if bottom number (diastolic filling) > 90
