1 Functions of the Circulatory System Carry oxygen from lungs to tissues Carry carbon dioxide from tissues to lungs thereby aiding in the exchange of gases Helps carry nutrients to cells Helps to fight against infections (White Blood Cells) Helps blood clot or stop bleeding (Platelets) BrainPop Circulatory System 1

3 Kids Health Cardiovascular System Heart: Provides the force to "push" the blood throughout the body. Arteries: Carry blood away from the heart to the rest of the body. Veins: Carry blood to the heart from the rest of the body. Bill Nye on Blood and Circulation Part 1 Capillaries: The smallest blood vessels. Connect veins and arteries. Gas exchange takes place here. 3

4 O 2 CO 2 Gas Exchange In the lungs there are tiny air sacs called alveoli. The capillaries "hug" the alveoli. The alveoli and capillaries allow what is called the gas exchange. Oxygen is picked up to be delivered to the rest of the body and carbon dioxide is dropped off to be exhaled. 4

5 Veins Veins and arteries The highway of the body As the blood leaves the heart, either as it travels to the lungs to pick up oxygen, or to the body to drop off the oxygen, it travels through the arteries. Artiers - Away When the blood heads to the heart, it is traveling through the veins. Veins - To Circulatory System Video Arteries Parts of the Heart Detailed Animation 5

6 Bill Nye on Blood and Circulation Part 2 Function Blood Vessels: 1. Arteries 1. Carry blood away from the heart 2. Veins 2. Carry blood to the heart. 3. Capillaries 3. Smallest blood vessels. Connect the two. Gas exchange takes place here. Blood Cells: 1. Red Blood Cells 1. Carry oxygen and glucose to the cells and carbon dioxide and water away. 2. White Blood Cells 2. Disease fighters 3. Platelets 3. Clot blood plasma is the liquid portion of blood BrainPop Blood 6

7 Blood Cells Red blood cells are in charge of carrying nutrients and oxygen to the body. Platelets' job is to clot your blood and form a scab when you cut yourself. White blood cells help fight infections when you are sick. Bill Nye on Blood and Circulation Part 3 7

9 There are four chambers in the heart: left atrium, right atrium, left ventricle and right ventricle. The left and right atriums are on the top, and the left and right ventricles are located on the bottom of the heart. The heart acts as two pumps: the left pump and the right pump. The blood enters the right atrium from the body, via a vein, and is in need of oxygen. It travels through a valve down to the right ventricle. The right ventricle pumps the blood through an artery to the lungs. In the lungs, it picks up oxygen from the capillaries of the lungs. It travels through a vein back to the heart into the left atrium. From there, it goes through a valve, down to the left ventricle. The left ventricle pumps the blood through an artery called the aorta back to the body to drop off the oxygen. After that, it starts its cycle all over again!
