CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
The highway system of the body
Why Have One?
Small organisms with few cells don’t need one because…..
1. Most cells are in contact with their environment so….
oxygen, nutrients, and waste can easily diffuse across the cell membrane
• Larger organisms must have a circulatory system because….
their cells are NOT in contact with the environment
substances made in one part of the body need to be transported to another part
FUNCTION Transport
oxygen to cells nutrients to cells carbon dioxide away from cells wastes away from cells
TYPES
1. Open: blood leaves vessels and goes into tissues and surrounds cells
Ex: grasshopper
2. Closed: blood is completely contained invesselsEx: human
PARTS
1. Heart = pump 2. Blood vessels = tubes 3. Blood = liquid tissue
HEARTHEART
» Two pumps side by side» Has four chambers
» Two pumps side by side» Has four chambers
HEART PARTS
Pericardium: protective sac that surrounds the heart
Atria: upper chambers, thin walledVentricles: lower chambers, thick
walled
Valves: flaps of tissue between chambers
Prevent backflow of blood - keeps blood moving in one direction
Septum: thick, muscular wall that divides the heart in half
Heart DiagramHeart Diagram
• 1. Aorta: largest artery of the body - carries blood away from heart to the body
• 2. Pulmonary Arteries: carry blood to the lungs
• 3. Left Atrium: contraction sends blood to left ventricle

through pulmonary arteries to lungs• 10. Inferior Vena Cava: brings
blood from lower parts of body into heart

• 12. Right Atrium: receives blood from all parts of the body except lungs
• 13. Pulmonary Veins• 14. Pulmonary Arteries• 15. Superior Vena Cava: brings
blood from the upper parts of the body to the heart

CIRCULATIONCIRCULATION
• Pulmonary• Right side of the heart pumps oxygen
poor blood from the heart to the lungs
• Pulmonary• Right side of the heart pumps oxygen
poor blood from the heart to the lungs
CIRCULATIONCIRCULATION
• Systemic• Oxygen rich blood comes back to the
left side of the heart• Blood is pumped out to the cells of
the body
• Systemic• Oxygen rich blood comes back to the
left side of the heart• Blood is pumped out to the cells of
the body
PATHWAYPATHWAY
• Right atrium ->• Right ventricle ->• Pulmonary artery ->• Lungs ->• Pulmonary vein ->• Left atrium ->• Left ventricle ->• Aorta ->• Arteries, capillaries, veins ->• Vena cava -> right atrium
• Right atrium ->• Right ventricle ->• Pulmonary artery ->• Lungs ->• Pulmonary vein ->• Left atrium ->• Left ventricle ->• Aorta ->• Arteries, capillaries, veins ->• Vena cava -> right atrium
