Circulatory System
in Animals
Regents Biology

Feeding Energy Needs
 Why do we need a
circulatory system?

supplies in
 fuel (sugars)
 digestive system
 oxygen
 respiratory system

waste out
 CO2
 respiratory system

need to pick up & deliver
the supplies & wastes
around the body
Regents Biology

Circulatory System
 Organ

heart
 Tissues & cells

blood vessels
 arteries
 veins
 capillaries

blood
 red blood cells
 plasma (liquid)
Regents Biology
Vertebrate Heart
 4-Chambered heart

atria (atrium)
 thin wall
 collection chamber
left
atrium
 receive blood

ventricles
 thick wall pump
 pump blood out

Lub-dub, lub-dub
 4 valves in the heart


flaps of tissue
prevent backflow of blood
 Heart sounds


closing of valves
“Lub”
SL
AV
AV
 force blood against
closed AV valves

“Dub”
 force of blood against
semilunar valves
 Heart murmur
leaking valve causes hissing sound
 blood squirts backward through valve
Regents Biology

Electrical signals
allows atria to empty
completely before
ventricles contract
stimulates ventricles
to contract from
bottom to top, driving
blood into arteries
 heart pumping controlled by electrical impulses
Biology
 Regents
signal
also transmitted to skin = EKG
atria empty
into ventricles
Cardiac Cycle
How is this
reflected in
blood pressure
measurements?
chambers begin
to fill
pump (peak pressure)
__________________
fill (minimum pressure)
110
______
80
Regents Biology
ventricles
pump
Measurement of blood pressure
hypertension =
(high
blood pressure)
Regents Biology
if top number > 150
or
if bottom number > 90

Regents Biology
Arteries: Built for their job
 Arteries
blood flows away from heart
 thicker walls

 provide strength
for high pressure
pumping of blood

elastic & stretchable
Regents Biology
Major arteries
aorta carotid = to head
to brain & left arm
to right arm
to body
pulmonary
artery
pulmonary
artery =
to lungs
coronary arteries
Regents Biology
Coronary artery bypass
bypass surgery
Regents Biology
Veins: Built for their job
 Veins
Blood flows
toward heart
blood returns back to heartOpen valve
 thinner-walled

 blood travels back to heart
at low speed & pressure
 why low pressure?
 far from heart
 blood flows because muscles
contract when we move
Closed valve
 squeeze blood through veins

valves in large veins
 in larger veins one-way valves
Regents Biology
allow blood to flow only toward heart
Major Veins
superior
vena cava =
from
upper body
pulmonary
vein =

inferior
Regentsvena
Biology cava = from lower body
pulmonary
vein =

Structure-function relationship
 Capillaries
very thin walls
 allows diffusion of
materials across
capillary

waste
body cell
CO2
 O2, CO2, H2O,
food, waste
O2
food
Regents Biology
Circulation of Blood
Circulation
to lungs
 2 part system

Circulation to lungs
lungs
 blood gets O2 from lungs
 drops off CO2 to lungs
 brings O2-rich blood from
lungs to heart

heart
Circulation to body
 pumps O2-rich blood to body
 picks up nutrients from
digestive system
 collects CO2 & cell wastes

Stops along the way…
 Lungs

pick up O2 / clean out CO2
 Small Intestines

pick up nutrients from
digested food
 Large Intestines

pick up water from
digested food
 Liver

clean out worn out
blood cells
Regents Biology
More stops along the way…
 Kidneys
filters out cell wastes
(urea)
 extra salts, sugars
& water

 Bone

pick up new red
blood cells
 Spleen

pick up new white
blood cells
Regents Biology
Circulatory System & Homeostasis
ATP
 Homeostasis




keeping the internal environment of the
body balanced
need to balance food & O2 in
need to balance energy (ATP) production
need to balance CO2 & waste out
 Exercise

heart beat faster
food
O2
CO2
waste
 need more ATP
 bring in more O2 & food; remove more CO2 & waste out
 Disease

poor lung or heart function = heart beat faster
 need to work harder to bring in O2 & food & remove wastes

Cardiovascular disease
 Atherosclerosis & Arteriosclerosis

deposits inside arteries (plaques)
 develop in inner wall of the arteries,
narrowing their channel


