Heart Disease
A. The Silent Killer
B. Atherosclerosis: Building
up of cholesterol/plaque
within the artery walls.
C. Symptoms:
(1) High Blood Pressure
-Increased blood
pressure due to the
narrow diameter of the
artery.

What is cholesterol?
4/10/2015
A. Cholesterol is a fatty, waxy nonpolar substance manufactured by
the liver.
B. The liver produces about 1,000 mg
daily, which is sufficient for cell
membrane and hormone
development.
C. Because cholesterol is waxy, it
doesn't readily dissolve in blood.
D. Cholesterol combines with certain
proteins to form lipoproteins, which
are more soluble and able to enter the
5
bloodstream
Cholesterol Levels
A. Levels less than 200 mg/dl =
Low Risk of heart disease
B. 240 mg/dl and above = High
blood cholesterol.
(1) A person with this level has
more than twice the risk of
coronary heart disease as
someone whose cholesterol is
below 200 mg/dL.

Symptoms of Coronary Artery
(Heart) Disease:
1. Angina (Chest Pain)

beats)
3. Faster Heart Beat.
4. Weakness & Dizziness
5. Nausea
6. Sweating

Cell Requirements:
1. Each cell requires a supply of
oxygen and food molecules.
4/10/2015
11
Cell Requirements:
2. The cells must get rid of
waste products.
4/10/2015
12
Cell Requirements:
3. In all animals that
have a transport
system, two
parts are
essential:
(1) Circulating
Fluid
(2) One or more
hearts to pump
the blood.
4/10/2015
13
The Circulatory System
A. The transport system of
animals is called the
circulatory system.
4/10/2015
14
Open Circulatory
System
A. Blood sloshes around freely in
a body cavity.
B. Example: Grasshopper’s Open
Circulatory System
(1)The blood is pumped toward
the head by a dorsal, segmented
heart, into the aorta, the only
blood vessel in its body.
(2) From the aorta, blood
empties into the insect’s body
cavity.
4/10/2015
15
Closed Circulatory System
A. Blood is enclosed at all
times within vessels.
B. Example: Humans
4/10/2015
16
Closed Circulatory System
4/10/2015
C. Circulation in vertebrates is
made up of:
1. Heart
a. Atrium: Thin-walled
chamber receiving and
collecting blood.
b. Ventricle: Larger, more
muscular, thicker walled
chamber, it pumps blood to
the body.
17
Closed Circulatory System
2. Arteries: Transport oxygenated
blood away from the heart.
4/10/2015
18
Closed Circulatory System
3. Veins transport deoxygenated
blood back to the heart.
a. One-way valves keep the blood
from flowing backwards.
4/10/2015
19
Closed Circulatory System
4. Capillaries: Consist of a
single cell layer.
a. Function: Exchange of
materials

Types of Hearts
4/10/2015
21
Different Types of Hearts:
1. Hearts with 2 chambers: Fish
(only have one atrium and one
ventricle)
a. Low pressure, low energy
demands.
4/10/2015
22
Different Types of Hearts:
2. Hearts with 3 chambers:
Amphibians
(Two atria and one ventricle)
4/10/2015
23
Different Types of Hearts:
3. Heart with 4
chambers: Mammals
a. High Pressure,
Double Circulation:
(1) Once through
the lungs and once
through the body
tissues.
4/10/2015
24
Circulation
A. Animals in which body
temperature is determined
by the environment are
called “ectotherms,” or coldblooded.
(1) Reptiles, Amphibians
4/10/2015
25
Circulation in Mammals
A. Mammals are endotherms
(warm-blooded)
(1) Maintain a constant body
temperature and have high
energy demands.
4/10/2015
26
Circulation in Mammals
B. In humans, blood goes to
and from the lungs.
-Called “Pulmonary
Circulation”
4/10/2015
27
Circulation in Mammals
4/10/2015
C. There is
circulation of
blood to and
from all the
organs, tissues,
and cells of the
body.
Called
“Systemic
Circulation”
28
Circulation in Mammals
D. Thousands of arteries and
veins are linked by capillaries
within the tissues to form a
closed circulatory system.
4/10/2015
29
Lymphatic System
A. Excess fluid in the tissues
moves into tiny vessels of the
lymphatic system. -This fluid is
called lymph.
B. Lymph is moved by the
squeezing of skeletal muscles.
4/10/2015
30
High Blood Pressure is
Called “Hypertension”
4/10/2015
1. Hypertension is the biggest
risk factor in heart disease.
2. Normal (average) blood
pressure is around 120/80.
a. The top number “120” refers
to the systolic pressure.
(Ventricles Contract)
b. The bottom number “80”
refers to the diastolic
pressure.

(Atria fill up with blood)
The Human Circulatory System
Coloring Activity:
Accurately color the heart
diagram: (1) Use the color
“blue” for deoxygenated
blood.
(2) Use the color “red” for
oxygenated blood.
4/10/2015
32
The Human Circulatory System
A. The heart is the muscular pump
of the blood vascular system.
4/10/2015
33
The Human Circulatory System
B. It has four chambers:
(1) Two on the right relate to the lungs
(Pulmonary Circulation)
(2) Two on the left relate to the rest of
the body (Systemic Circulation)
4/10/2015
34
The Human Circulatory System
C. Deoxygenated blood from the body
enters the right atrium and is pumped to
the lungs by the right ventricle under
relatively low pressure.
4/10/2015
35
The Human Circulatory System
D. Oxygenated blood returns to the left
atrium and is pumped to the body
tissues by the left ventricle under
rather high pressure, a fact reflected in
the thicker left ventricular walls.
4/10/2015
36
The Human Circulatory System
E. The bicuspid and tricuspid
valves prevent regurgitation
of blood back into the atria.
4/10/2015
37
The Human Circulatory System
F. The semi-lunar valves prevent
reflux of blood back into the
ventricles.
4/10/2015
38
Electrical Impulses in the Heart
A. An action potential is initiated
by the S-A Node, the impulse
spreads out over both atria
causing them to contract.
4/10/2015
39
Electrical Impulses in the Heart
B. The S-A Node is located in the right
atrial wall and it initiates each cardiac
cycle; consequently, it is also known as
the pacemaker of the heart.
4/10/2015
40
Electrical Impulses in the Heart
C. The A-V Node sends an
electrical impulse down the
septum and up the ventricle walls.
