1 Day 1. Circulatory System uman Body Transport The Circulatory System 2. ARTERIES 1. eart & VEINS 3. Blood Process: Transport Circulatory System The process where substances move (distributed) into and out of cells and other parts of the body. Important Words! eart- a muscular organ in the center of the chest that pumps blood throughout the body. Atria- 2 upper thin-walled chambers Ventricles- 2 lower, thick-walled chambers. Septum - the wall that separates the right & left side of the heart so the blood does not mix! PART OF CIRCULATORY SYSTEM The eart Chart WAT IS DOES 1. Veins A blood vessel that returns blood to the heart 2. Right atrium and ventricle Chamber in heart that contain oxygen poor blood going to lungs 3. eart valves Flaps of connective tissue that allows blood to travel in ONE direction to prevent from flowing backwards 4. Left atrium and ventricle Chambers that contain oxygen rich blood ready for body 5. Arteries Large blood vessel that carries blood from heart to tissues of body 1

2 The eart Chart PART OF CIRCULATORY SYSTEM10 WAT IS DOES 6. Capillaries Smallest blood vessel; brings nutrients and O2 to the tissues and absorbs CO2 and waste products 7. Aorta Large blood vessel; blood travels from the left ventricle to all parts of the body except the lungs 8. Pulmonary artery Brings oxygen poor blood to the lungs 9. Coronary arteries Set of small arteries that brings O2 and nutrients to heart muscle 10. Pulmonary veins Brings oxygen rich blood form each of the lungs to the left atrium Important Words! Superior Vena Cava- largest vein, carries deoxygenated blood from upper body to right atrium. Inferior Vena Cava- largest vein, carries deoxygenated blood from the lower body to right atrium. Inferior vena cava The eart: Chambers & Valves 6. Pulmonary Valve 5. Tricuspid valve 8. Aortic valve 7. Mitral valve 2

3 The Left Ventricle Finding Your eart Valves APE TO MAN Is thicker & more muscular because under greater pressure to pump blood furthest. Question Blood Flow ow many chambers do humans have in the heart? Blood Flow Which side has oxygen-poor blood? eart has 4 chambers - 2 atrias (atrium) - 2 ventricles Which side has oxygen-rich blood? A double system: - oxygenated - deoxygenated 3

4 eart Structure Day 2. 2 Types of Circulation 1. Pulmonary Circulation 2. Systemic Circulation 2 Types of Circulation 1. Pulmonary Circulation Pulmonary Circulation Begins on RIGT side of heart. This side pumps blood to the lungs to pick up oxygen & dump CO2. Then travels to the LEFT side of the heart. 2 Types of Circulation 2. Systemic Circulation The blood from the Left side of the heart travels to the rest of the body. onors m 4

5 Systemic Circulation Left side of heart sends blood to Question #4 Review Does the right side of the heart carry oxygenated or deoxygenated blood? Practice Questions Answer: Deoxygenated blood Question #5 Question #6 Does the pulmonary artery carry oxygenated blood or deoxygenated blood? In what structure is oxygen gained and carbon dioxide given up in the blood? Answer: Deoxygenated blood Answer: Pulmonary capillaries 5

6 Question #7 Question #8 True or False. Pulmonary veins carry oxygen rich blood to the left side of the heart. The left side of the heart caries oxygenated or deoxygenated blood? Answer: True Answer: Oxygenated blood Question #9 Question #10 Name the two largest veins? The aorta carries oxygenated or deoxygenated blood to the body? Answer: Superior and Inferior vena cava Answer: Oxygenated blood Systemic Circulation Systemic Circulation branches into 3 specific circulations. Coronary Circulation epatic- Portal Circulation onors Circulation Continued Renal Circulation 6

7 Systemic Circulation Coronary Circulation 1. Coronary Circulation Branches off the aorta and enters the heart muscle. Supplies blood to the muscle of the heart. Systemic Circulation 2. epatic-portal Circulation Carries blood from the digestive tract to the liver. Veins draining the capillaries of the digestive tract forms the portal vein. The portal vein enters the liver. epatic veins bring blood to the inferior vena cava. Systemic Circulation Renal Circulation 3. Renal Circulation Carries blood to and from the kidneys to excrete wastes from body tissues. 7

8 A Summary ** Pick up Oxygen ** Get rid of CO2 Day 2. Blood Vessels Blood Vessels Arteries thick, strong, & elastic walls Carry oxygenated blood away from heart to tissues. Bright Red blood Veins thin walls Returns blood to the heart carrying less oxygenated blood. Dark Red blood (less O2) Capillaries very very thin & weak Connects arteries & veins. Nutrients & O2 delivered to tissues. CO2 & waste products absorbed by the blood. ARTERY CAPILLARIES VEIN 8

9 Capillaries SOOOOOO thin RBCs Travel in a single file! Artery to Body Cells by Capillaries Then by Capillaries to Veins to the eart Questions Why is it your skin turns RED when your hot? capillaries grow wider to come close to the surface of your skin to release heat. Why is it your skin turns BLUE when your cold? capillaries get thinner & are away from the skin to reduce the amount of heat lost. Day 3. eartbeat Cycle eartbeat - is a sequence of muscle contraction & relaxation. This is called a CARDIAC CYCLE

10 eartbeat SYSTOLE - contraction of ventricles DIASTOLE - relaxation of ventricles LUB-DUB eartbeat LUB (S1) - tricuspid & mitral valves (AV valves) close - higher ventricular pressure than in atrias DUB (S2) - pulmonary & aortic valves (semilunar valves) close - higher pressure in the aorta & pulmonary artery causes to close. Electrical Pathway of The eart Special heart cells produce electricity called pacemaker cells. 1 st electrical wave begins at the top (sinoatrial or SA node) of the heart and spreads to other muscle cells. Pacemaker regulates how often the heart will beat by setting the heart rate. This will also help coordinate the contraction of the heart. An electrocardiogram (EKG) a test that records the small electric waves during heart activity. A Pulse the expansion and contraction of the artery walls in response to heartbeat. Blood Pressure When heart contracts it causes a wave of fluid pressure in the arteries. Pressure on the arteries is called the blood pressure. If the heart was not under this pressure, blood would STOP flowing! 10

11 What Is Normal Blood Pressure? ow Do You Measure Your Blood Pressure? A device called a sphygmomanometer. BP = systolic diastolic The Kidneys elps to regulate blood pressure by removing water from the blood when blood pressure is high. Clean blood Medical Conditions Blood with wastes Wastes & excess water sent to bladder Varicose Veins Enlarged veins due to loss of elasticity causing vein to stretch. Blood pools & veins become varicose. Veins are blue because it s carrying deoxygenated blood. Causes: prolonged standing, pregnancy, obesity, genetics 11

12 Varicose Veins (incompetent valves) Exercise Is Good Prevents blood from pooling. Prevents veins from becoming weak & stretched out. Keeps blood flowing! ypertension (high blood pressure) - Above normal blood pressure throughout the heartbeat cycle. ypertension Cause: Atherosclerosis Atherosclerosis ardening of the arteries from cholesterol deposits inside of arteries. Muscular Artery Atherosclerotic Plaque Walls get narrow and rigid causing blood pressure to increase because it strains the heart and blood vessels. 12

13 If Left Untreated? Can lead to a heart attack or stroke. eart attack - occurs when blood flow to a section of the heart muscle becomes blocked. Angina Pectoris - Severe chest pain due to lack of O2 to heart muscle from blockage of coronary arteries. A Stroke - occurs when a blood vessel that brings oxygen and nutrients to the brain bursts or is clogged by a blood clot. Preventing eart Disease Prevention Do Not Smoke Check your blood pressure Decrease your intake of high cholesterol foods (less butter, mayo, fatty meat) Eat more vegetables and fruits Decrease your sodium (salt) intake Exercise 20 minutes/day, 3 times a week Avoid obesity Manage stress and anxiety Review Practice Questions 13

14 Question #1 Question #2 What is the cause for hypertension? Answer: Atherosclerosis What can a diet high in saturated fat lead to? Answer: eart disease (cardiovascular disease) Question #3 Our Blood What can happen if your hypertension is left untreated? Answer: Can lead to a heart attack or stroke. What s In Our Blood? Components of Blood Blood vessel White blood cell Red blood cell Blood - a liquid tissue with dissolved materials, travels through blood vessels. - Body has 4-6 liters of blood. Plasma Platelet Functions: 1. Transportation 2. Regulation 3. Protection 14

20 Lymphatic Circulation Structure: Lymphatic Circulation Intercellular fluid made of water, salts, proteins, and nutrients that surrounds the cells. Fluid is called lymph. Comes from blood plasma. Surrounds body cells. Functions: Lymphatic Circulation Returns excess fluid back to the blood by the superior vena cava. Produce lymphocytes. Lymph Nodes are bean-shaped enlargements that filter bacteria, dead cells, and cancer cells to prevent entering the bloodstream. Medical Conditions: Lymphatic Circulation Elephantitis: An Obstruction in the Lymphatic System 1. Edema - the swelling of tissues due to the build- up of excess fluid because of injury or disease. 2. Swollen Lymph Nodes - due to trapped organisms in the lymph nodes, which tells the body is fighting an infection. 20
