The Circulatory System
The Nature of Blood Circulation
 A circulatory system distributes materials
throughout the vertebrate body (and some
invertebrates)
 Uses a transport medium called blood.
 A heart is a muscular organ that pumps the
transport medium (blood) through vessels.
 Blood and interstitial fluid (fluid between cells)
make up the body’s internal environment
Two Kinds of Circulatory Systems
 Open circulatory system (arthropods, mollusks)
• Blood moves through hearts and large vessels, but
also mixes with interstitial fluid
 Closed circulatory system (annelids, vertebrates)
• Blood remains inside heart and blood vessels
• Materials diffuse between blood and interstitial fluid
at capillaries
Open Circulatory Systems

A In a grasshopper’s open system, a heart (not like yours) pumps
blood through a vessel, a type of aorta. From there, blood moves into
tissue spaces, mingles with interstitial fluid, then reenters the heart at
openings in the heart wall.

Evolution of Circulation in Vertebrates
 Fishes
• Heart with two chambers
• Single circuit of circulation
 Amphibians
• Heart with three chambers
• Two partially separated circuits
 Birds and mammals
• Heart with four chambers
• Two fully separate circuits
Single Circuit of Circulation
capillary beds
of gills
heart
A In fishes, the heart has two
chambers: one atrium and one
ventricle. Blood flows through one
circuit. It picks up oxygen in the
capillary beds of the gills, and
delivers it to capillary beds in all
body tissues. Oxygen-poor blood
then returns to the heart.

B In amphibians, the heart has
three chambers: two atria and one
ventricle. Blood flows along two
partially separated circuits. The
force of one contraction pumps
blood from the heart to the lungs
and back. The force of a second
contraction pumps blood from the
heart to all body tissues and back
to the heart.
Fig. 37-3b, p. 639
Circulation in Birds and Mammals
 The four-chambered heart has two separate
halves, each with an atrium and a ventricle
 Each half pumps blood in a separate circuit
• Pulmonary circuit: Blood flows from right half of
heart, to lungs (gains oxygen), to left half of heart
• Systemic circuit: Blood flows from left half of
heart, to body (loses oxygen), to right half of heart
Two Fully Separate Circuits of Circulation

C In birds and mammals, the heart
has four chambers: two atria and two
ventricles. The blood flows through
two fully separated circuits. In one
circuit, blood flows from the heart to
the lungs and back. In the second
circuit, blood flows from the heart to
all body tissues and back.

D Why flow slows in capillaries.
Picture a volume of water in two
fast rivers flowing into and out
of a lake. The flow rate is
constant, with an identical
volume moving from points 1 to
3 in the same interval. However,
flow velocity decreases in the
lake. Why? The volume spreads
out through a larger crosssectional area and flows
forward a shorter distance
during the specified interval.

 Fill in the blank.
 Many animals have either an ________ or a
________ circulatory system that transports
substances to and from all body tissues.

system, in which blood is
_______________________________.
Overview of Circulatory Systems
 Many animals have either an open or a closed
circulatory system that transports substances to
and from all body tissues
 All vertebrates have a closed circulatory system,
in which blood is always contained within the
heart or blood vessels
Characteristics of Blood
 Blood, considering it is made of cells, can be
called a large interconnect tissue.
 Blood consists mainly of plasma, a protein-rich
fluid that carries wastes, gases and nutrients.
 Blood cells and platelets form in bone marrow
and are transported in plasma.
• Platelets are fragments of megakaryocytes,
active in clotting.
Blood Cells
 Red blood cells (erythrocytes)
• Contain hemoglobin that carries oxygen from
lungs to tissues
• Quantified in cell count
 White blood cells (leukocytes)
• Defend the body from pathogens
• Neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils, monocytes,
and lymphocytes (B and T cells)

Hemostasis
 Hemostasis = Heme (blood) stasis (balance)
• Keeping blood pressure/volume stable.
 How do we stop bleeding?
 Initiated by a hormone cascade when an injury
is sustained and blood vessels are broken.
 Hemostasis is a three-phase process that stops
blood loss, constructs a framework for repairs
• Damaged vessel constricts
• Platelets accumulate
• Cascading enzyme reactions involving plasma
proteins cause clot formation
Three-Phase Process of Hemostasis
Stimulus
A blood vessel is damaged.
Phase 1 response
A vascular spasm constricts the vessel.
Phase 2 response
Platelets stick together plugging the site.
Phase 3 response
Clot formation starts:
1. Enzyme cascade results in activation
of Factor X.
2. Factor X converts prothrombin in
plasma to thrombin
3. Thrombin converts fibrinogen, a
plasma protein, to fibrin threads.
4. Fibrin forms a net that entangles
cells and platelets, forming a clot.

Blood Typing
 Blood type
• Genetically determined differences in molecules
on the surface of red blood cells
 Agglutination
• Clumping of foreign cells by plasma proteins
• When blood of incompatible types mixes, the
immune system attacks the unfamiliar molecules
Agglutination

Human Cardiovascular System
 The term “cardiovascular” comes from the Greek
kardia (for heart) and Latin vasculum (vessel)
 In a cardiovascular circuit, blood flows from the
heart through arteries, arterioles, capillaries,
venules, veins, and back to the heart.
Two Circuits of
the Human Cardiovascular System
 Pulmonary circuit
• Oxygen-poor blood flows from the heart, through
a pair of lungs, then back to the heart
• Blood takes up oxygen in the lungs
 Systemic circuit
• Oxygenated blood flows from the heart (through
the aorta) into capillary beds where it gives up O2
and takes up CO2, then flows back to the heart

The Human Heart
 A sac of connective tissue (pericardium)
surrounds the heart muscle (myocardium)
 Endothelium lines heart chambers and blood
vessels
 Heart valves keep blood moving in one direction
• AV valves separate atria and ventricles
• Semilunar valves separate ventricles and arteries

The Cardiac Cycle
 Cardiac cycle: Heart muscle alternates between
diastole (relaxation) and systole (contraction)
•
•
•
•
Blood collects in atria
AV valves open, blood flows into ventricles
Contraction of ventricles drives blood circulation
Ventricles contract with a wringing motion from
bottom to top
The Cardiac Cycle
A Atria fill. Fluid
pressure opens
the AV valves,
blood flows into
the ventricles.
B Next, atria
contract. As
fluid pressure
rises in the
ventricles, AV
valves close.
D Ventricles
relax. Semilunar
valves close as
atria begin
filling for the
next cardiac
cycle.
C Ventricles
contract.
Semilunar
valves open.
Blood flows
into aorta and
pulmonary
artery.

Cardiac Muscle
 Cardiac muscle cells are striated (divided into
sarcomeres) and have many mitochondria
 Cells attach end to end at intercalated discs
 Neighboring cells communicate through gap
junctions that conduct waves of excitation
Cardiac Muscle Cells and Gap Junctions

b Part of a gap junction across the
plasma membrane of a cardiac muscle
cell. The junctions connect cytoplasm of
adjoining cells and allow electrical signals
that stimulate contraction to spread
swiftly between them.
Fig. 37-15, p. 647
How the Heart Beats
 Cardiac pacemaker (SA node)
• A clump of noncontracting cells in the right
atrium’s wall spontaneously fires action potentials
about 70 times per minute
 Cardiac conduction system
• Signal spreads from SA node to AV node and
junctional fibers in the septum, so heart contracts
in a coordinated fashion

Controlling Blood Pressure
 Blood pressure depends on total blood volume,
how much blood the ventricles pump (cardiac
output), and whether arterioles are constricted or
dilated
 Receptors in the aorta and carotid arteries
monitor blood pressure and send signals to the
medulla, which regulates cardiac output and
arteriole diameter
Measuring Blood Pressure
Diffusion at Capillaries,
Then Back to the Heart
 Capillary
• A cylinder of endothelial cells, one cell thick
• Capillary beds are diffusion zones, where blood
exchanges substances with interstitial fluid
• Hydrostatic pressure moves materials out
(ultrafiltration)
• Osmotic pressure moves water in (capillary
reabsorption)
Fluid Movement at a Capillary Bed

high pressure
causes outward flow
blood from
arteriole
Fluid movement at a capillary bed. Fluid crosses a capillary wall by way of
ultrafiltration and reabsorption. (a) At the capillary’s arteriole end, a difference
between blood pressure and interstitial fluid pressure forces out plasma, but few
plasma proteins, through clefts between endothelial cells of the capillary wall.
Ultrafiltration is the outward flow of fluid across the capillary wall as a result of
hydrostatic pressure. (b) Reabsorption is the osmotic movement of some
interstitial fluid into the capillary. It happens when the water concentration between
interstitial fluid and the plasma differs. Plasma, with its dissolved proteins, has a
greater solute concentration and therefore a lower water concentration.
Reabsorption near the end of a capillary bed tends to balance ultrafiltration at the
start of it. Normally, there is only a small net filtration of fluid, which vessels of the
lymphatic system return to blood (Section 37.10).

Venous Pressure
 Venules deliver blood from capillaries to veins
 Veins deliver blood to the heart
• Large-diameter, blood volume reservoirs
• Valves help prevent backflow
• Amount of blood in veins varies with activity level
Venous Valve
Action
Venous valve action. (a)
Valves in medium-sized
veins prevent the backflow of
blood. Adjacent skeletal
muscles helps raise fluid
pressure inside a vein. (b)
These muscles bulge into a
vein as they contract.
Pressure inside the vein
rises and helps keeps blood
flowing forward. (c) When
muscles relax, the pressure
that they exerted on the vein
is lifted. Venous valves shut
and cut off backflow.
