2 Circulatory System Circulatory system = Cardiovascular system = heart, blood vessels & blood Circulatory System 2

3 Function = homeostasis Transport O 2 /CO 2 Food/wastes Fluids Hormones Regulate ph Water balance Temperature Close connection with immune response Circulatory System Circulatory System 3

4 Blood ~ 5 liters in adult Plasma Cellular elements Circulatory System 4

5 Blood Plasma ~ 55% of blood volume 90% water 10% solutes Blood proteins Nutrients Wastes Gases Hormones Circulatory System 5

6 Blood Cellular elements ~ 45% of blood volume Circulatory System 6

7 Blood Red blood cells 5 million/cc (=ml) Carry O 2 Produced in bone marrow Biconcave No nucleus Live ~ 120 days Circulatory System 7

8 Blood White blood cells 4,000 11,000/cc Protection from disease Produced in bone marrow Have nucleus Long-lived Circulatory System 8

9 Blood Platelets 200, ,000/cc Form blood clots Produced in bone marrow Cell fragments Circulatory System 9

10 Heart Pumps blood to body s cells Circulatory System National Heart Lung Blood Institute, 10

13 Heart Anatomy 4 chambers 2 atria Receive blood 2 ventricles Pump blood out of heart Right semilunar valve Left AV valve Right AV valve Left semilunar valve Circulatory System; modified from National Cancer Institute, NIH, 13

14 Heart Anatomy Valves Prevent backwards flow of blood Right semilunar valve Left AV valve Right AV valve Left semilunar valve Circulatory System; modified from National Cancer Institute, NIH, 14

15 Heart Double Circuit Circulatory System 15

16 Blood Vessels Arteries carry blood away from heart Veins return blood to heart Capillaries in between Every organ has its own capillary network Circulatory System 16

17 Blood Vessels Circulatory System 17

18 Blood Vessels Capillaries Gas and nutrient exchange Very small vessels Walls one cell thick Effective diffusion Narrow lumen One cell at a time Effective diffusion Circulatory System 18

29 Blood Flow through Heart Circulatory System 29

30 Blood Flow through Heart Circulatory System 30

32 Blood Flow through Heart Circulatory System 32

33 Blood Flow through Heart Circulatory System 33

34 Blood Flow through Heart Circulatory System 34

35 Heartbeat Intrinsic to heart muscle Regulated by sinoatrial node (pacemaker) Its own intrinsic rate of beating Sends electric impulses so all cells beat w/it Involuntary nervous system or heart rate Circulatory System 35

36 Heartbeat Circulatory System 36

37 Heartbeat Circulatory System 37

38 Heart Rate Resting heart rate bpm (~ 72 bpm healthy non-athlete) Heart alternates between contraction and relaxation Contraction = systole Relaxation = diastole Circulatory System 38

39 Cardiac Cycle Circulatory System 39

41 Cardiac Cycle Circulatory System 41

42 Heart Valves Open when P behind > P in front Right semilunar valve Close when P in front > P behind Left AV valve Right AV valve Left semilunar valve Circulatory System; modified from National Cancer Institute, NIH, 42

43 Heart Valves Healthy valves insure one-way flow Tendons attach AV valves to ventricle wall Semilunar valves have little pressure in front Right semilunar valve Right AV valve Left AV valve Left semilunar valve Circulatory System; modified from National Cancer Institute, NIH, 43

44 Heart Valves Make heart sounds when they close Healthy sounds Damaged valves Allow backflow Cause heart murmur Right semilunar valve Right AV valve Left AV valve Left semilunar valve Circulatory System; modified from National Cancer Institute, NIH, 44

45 Blood Flow through Vessels Systole Ventricles contract Blood leaves heart via arteries Arterial pressure Diastole Ventricles relax Arterial pressure Blood flow surges in arteries Circulatory System 45

46 Blood Flow through Vessels Side note: Blood pressure Systolic pressure during systole Diastolic pressure during diastole Systolic P/diastolic P Average <120/<80 High 140/90 or greater Circulatory System 46

47 Blood Flow through Vessels Surging and pressure with distance from heart No difference in pressure in capillaries and veins during systole and diastole Blood flow smooth in capillaries and veins Circulatory System 47

48 Blood Flow through Vessels Blood pressure lowest in veins Heartbeat cannot return blood to the heart Venous return depends on other mechanisms Skeletal milking Respiratory pumping Circulatory System 48

49 Return of Blood through Veins Skeletal milking Functions in arms and legs Muscle contraction around veins squeezes blood towards heart Veins have one-way valves Blood is milked towards torso Circulatory System 49

50 Return of Blood through Veins Respiratory pumping Inhalation decreases pressure around heart Sucks blood through abdominal and chest cavities toward heart Circulatory System 50

51 Return of Blood through Veins Respiratory pumping Inhalation decreases pressure around heart Sucks blood through abdominal and chest cavities toward heart Circulatory System 51

52 Vasodilation/Vasoconstriction Blood vessels can dilate or constrict Involuntary nervous system Controls blood pressure Fight or flight response Local tissue control Constrict to blood flow in cold weather to avoid heat loss Dilate to blood flow in warm weather to cool off For healing of injured tissues Circulatory System 52

53 Cardiovascular Disease Diseases of the heart and blood vessels Kill over 1 million people in US each year Circulatory System 53

54 Atherosclerosis Circulatory System 54

55 Coronary Artery Disease Circulatory System 55

56 Cerebral Vascular Disease Stroke Blockage of blood vessel in brain Blood clot or fatty deposits Bleeding blood vessel in brain Rupture due to weak vessel wall or high blood pressure Circulatory System 56

57 Peripheral Artery Disease Blockage of blood vessels in legs blood flow to legs and feet Pain in legs when walking Greater risk of heart attack/stroke Circulatory System 57

58 Hypertension High blood pressure Can harden arteries blood flow to heart Chest pain Heart failure inability of heart to pump enough blood to organs Can rupture blood vessels Stroke Kidney damage Circulatory System 58

59 Heart Health Don t smoke Exercise regularly Maintain a healthy weight Healthy diet Low in saturated fats No trans fats Low cholesterol Low sodium High fiber (lowers cholesterol) Circulatory System 59
