Transcript Respiratory & Circulatory Systems PPT

Circulation and Gas Exchange
The Respiratory System
GETS oxygen for the body
 GETS RID of carbon dioxide
Characteristics/Requirements of ALL Gas
Exchange Mechanisms:
 MOIST membranes
 Close spacing of gas and blood for easy
diffusion
 High surface area-to-volume ratio
 An animal’s respiratory surfaces must
be large enough to provide oxygen and
expel carbon dioxide for the entire body


Countercurrent Exchange- blood &
water flow in opposite directions
Tracheae


The respiratory
system used by
insects
Tracheae are air
tubes that branch
throughout the
insect body
The finest branches
of the tracheae
extend to the
surface of nearly
every cell, where gas
is exchanged by
diffusion
Human Respiratory System
Open vs. Closed Circulatory Systems

In open circulatory systems,
hemolymph bathes the internal
organs directly


Insects, arthropods, mollusks
In closed circulatory systems, blood
is confined to vessels


Blood exchanges materials with the ISF
bathing the cells
Earthworms, squids, octopuses,
vertebrates

Double Pump



Right side pumps to the lungs and
back to left atrium (PULMONARY
CIRCUIT)
Left side pumps to the entire body
and returns blood to right atrium
(SYSTEMIC CIRCUIT)
Oxygenated & deoxygenated blood
never mix!
