Blood flow Through the HeartAorta, diastole, interior vena cava,
pulmonary artery,
Conduction System Of the Heart
Types of Bloods vesselsThere are three types Arteries- is the largest artery Vein s– carry blood away from the heart, veins contain valves. The Vena Cava is the largest Vein
Capillaries – is known as the distribution pipes
A Example of Blood Vessels
Pulse and Blood PressureBlood pressure is the force that the blood exerts on the arterial walls. Your blood pressure is measured by a device call the Sphygmomanometer.
Conclusion I hope you enjoyed my presentation. Also, I
hope you remember how important the Cardiovascular System It is responsible for providing each cell of the body with the oxygen and nutrients it needs, while removing waste products.
