should be able to:

circulatory and plumonary systems
work

• Explain why systems are important to
athletes
The heart 4
The circulatory system
The circulatory system involves
the heart, blood vessels and blood
itself. These are the three essential
components the body needs to
survive.
The heart 5
The circulatory system is made up
of two separate circuits that blood
travels through: the pulmonary
circuit and the systemic circuit.
The heart 6
This is a double circulatory
system and blood passes through
the heart twice.
The heart 7
The functions of the
circulatory system
Oxygen and nutrients are
transported to parts of the body,
while waste or toxic products are
removed.
The balance of nutrients keeps the
body functioning properly.
The heart 8
The body relies on these actions to
stay alive.
The circulatory system controls
body temperature. The body is
affected by changes to temperature,
so keeping it in an acceptable range
keeps the body functioning properly.
The heart 9
The circulatory system also helps
protect the body; antibodies in the
blood fight disease and platelets
help to clot the blood at the source
of a cut to prevent other germs
entering the body.

Task 1
Create prompt cards by writing
down the main functions of the
circulatory system on A6 size cards.
Make sure they are neat and
concise. They will help you to revise
later on!

The heart 13
On heart diagrams, red arrows
usually denote the arteries, showing
oxygenated blood.
Blue arrows usually denote the
veins, showing deoxygenated blood.
The heart 14
Task 2
1. Draw a copy of the heart diagram
and label it.
2. Show the flow of blood through
the heart on your diagram. Use
colour (red and blue) to show
where the blood is oxygenated
and deoxygenated.
The heart 15
The heart as a pump
The heart acts as
a pump in the
double circulatory
system.
The heart 16
When the heart beats (contracts) it
is called systole. This action forces
blood through the arteries around
the body.
When the heart relaxes it fills with
blood returning from the veins. This
is called the diastole or diastolic
phase.
The heart 17
The pulmonary circuit carries
deoxygenated blood from the heart,
from the right ventricle, to the
lungs, via the pulmonary artery; the
blood is then oxygenated (carbon
dioxide is removed from the blood in
the lungs).
The heart 18
The heart 19
The oxygenated blood is then taken
from the lungs, via the pulmonary
vein, and taken to the left atrium of
the heart (oxygen is taken up by the
haemoglobin in red blood cells).
The heart 20
The heart 21
The systemic circuit carries
oxygenated blood from the heart,
pumped from the left atrium to the
left ventricle into the aorta, to the
rest of the body so it can use the
oxygen.
The heart 22
The heart 23
Deoxygenated blood is then taken
back from the body to the right
atrium of the heart via the vena
cava.
The cycle then starts over again.
The heart 24
The heart 25
The heart
The heart has four chambers. The
two atria collect blood and the two
ventricles pump the blood out of
the heart.
The heart 26
Deoxygenated blood
Oxygenated blood
The heart 27
The right side of the body pumps
deoxygenated blood (blood with no
oxygen in it) to the lungs.
Oxygenated blood
The heart 28
The left side pumps oxygenated
blood (blood with more oxygen in it)
from the lungs to the rest of the
body.
Deoxygenated blood
The heart 29
The septum divides the left and
right sides of the heart so that
oxygenated and deoxygenated
blood do not mix.
Septum
The heart 30
The left ventricle wall is thicker than
the right side. It is more developed
as it pumps blood further around
the body.
Left ventricle
The heart 31
Sets of valves are positioned in the
heart to stop the backflow of blood.
Semi-lunar valve
The heart 32
Task 3
Draw a diagram in your work book
showing the pulmonary and
systemic systems.
Clearly label your diagram.
The heart 33
Task 4
As a class, discuss why you think
the circulatory system is important
to sportspeople.
