2 The Cardiovascular System A closed system of the heart and blood vessels The heart pumps blood Blood vessels allow blood to circulate to all parts of the body The function of the cardiovascular system is to deliver oxygen and nutrients and to remove carbon dioxide and other waste products Copyright 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings 2

3 The Heart Location Thorax between the lungs Pointed apex directed toward left hip About the size of your fist. Copyright 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings 3

22 Coronary Circulation Blood in the heart chambers does not nourish the myocardium The heart has its own nourishing circulatory system Coronary arteries Cardiac veins Blood empties into the right atrium via the coronary sinus Copyright 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings 22

23 Coronary Arteries These arteries supply blood to the heart 85% is supplied by the left coronary artery The left coronary artery divides into the left anterior descending and circumflex arteries 23
