Circulatory System
• The transportation system of the body
• Circulatory comes from the word “circle”
• Blood circles the body:
heart
Body
cells
lungs
heart
Another name for the
circulatory system is the
cardiovascular system
Major Organs and Tissues of the
Circulatory System
• Heart
• Blood Vessels
• Blood
Why is Circulation
Important?
The circulatory system
transports oxygen and food to
the brain, feet, muscles, and
every single part of the body.
It is very important that the
circulatory system in the body
keeps going all the time. If it
stops, even for a short time
then the body will very
quickly die.
Three Functions of the
Circulatory System:
1. To move oxygen and nutrients
to all cells of the body
2. To move carbon dioxide and
other wastes out of the cells
3. To fight disease
The Heart
• The heart has 4 chambers:
atrium
ventricle
Parts of the Heart
• Atrium - upper chamber
• septum - thick tissue that
separates left and right side
of heart
• valve -flap of tissue
• ventricle - lower chamber
of heart

Blood Vessels
3 Kinds of blood
vessels
• Arteries
• Veins
• Capillaries
Arteries
• Arteries ALWAYS carry blood AWAY
from the heart
VEINS
carry
blood TO
the heart
CAPILLARIES
connect arteries to veins
artery
vein
Capillaries are
where cells
connect to
blood.
Oxygen, and
nutrients are
exchanged for
carbon dioxide
and wastes.
Special Veins and Arteries
• The Aorta is the largest artery in the body leading from the heart
• The Vena Cava is the largest vein in the
body, and leads to the heart
• The pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein
connect the heart to lungs
What is the meaning of the cartoon?
What did we learn with the heart
run around?
• What do cells use up to make energy?
• When you exercise do cells use it faster or slower?
• How does oxygen get from your lungs to your
body cells?
• What makes blood move?
• What did we simplify?
• Cells must always have energy. If it is used up
faster it must be replaced faster. This means that
the heart must ______________
Do Now
• In journal, describe what is happening on
SIDE A of the handout.
• HINT: Think about our game we played
yesterday.
Capillaries Side A
• Oxygenated blood comes from the heart and
goes through the organ where it becomes
de-oxygenated blood.
• Describe what is happening on side B of the
handout.
Capillaries Side B
• Shows blood picking up waste and carbon
dioxide from the organ and blood giving the
organ water, nutrients and oxygen. The
blood stays in the capillary. Water can go
both ways.

Pulmonary artery - carries blood
from heart to lungs
Blood is a liquid tissue
• Blood is a mixturepart liquid and part
solid
• Plasma is liquid part
of blood
• Clotting is controlled
by platlets
Red Blood Cell- contains
hemoglobin (iron compound)
which carries oxygen
White Blood Cells fight disease
Platelets - form clots
Gas Exchange
• The pulmonary
blood vessels take
the blood from the
heart to the lungs.
• They drop off
wastes and pick up
oxygen
• Then the blood
goes back to the
heart
