Function of the
Cardiovascular System
Nourishes the body by transporting nutrients
and oxygen to the cells and removing carbon
dioxide and other waste products

Cardiovascular System
heart: muscular organ the size of a closed
fist, located behind the breast bone and
between the lungs. The pumping action,
circulates blood throughout the body
upper chambers: right and left atrium
 lower chambers: right and left ventricle
 cardiac septum: separates right and left sides
of heart


6
Cardiovascular System (cont’d)
tricuspid valve: located between right
atrium and right ventricle
bicuspid valve (mitral valve): located
between the left atrium and left ventricle
pericardium: outer layer of heart
myocardium: middle, thick, muscular
layer
endocardium: inner lining of the heart

7
Cardiovascular System (cont’d)
blood vessels: tubelike structures that
carry blood throughout the body
 arteries: carry blood containing oxygen &
other nutrients away from the heart to the
body cells except for the pulmonary artery,
which carries carbon dioxide and other waste
products to the lungs
 arterioles: smallest arteries
 aorta: largest artery in the body
Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.
8
Cardiovascular System (cont’d)
veins: carry blood containing carbon dioxide
and other waste products back to the heart
except for the pulmonary vein, which carries
oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart
venules: smallest veins in the body
 venae cavae: largest veins in the body
 capillaries: connect arterioles with venules;
exchange of gases takes place in capillaries

Cardiovascular System (cont’d)
blood
plasma: liquid portion of blood in which cells
float
 cells

erythrocytes: red blood cells that carry oxygen
 leukocytes: white blood cells that fight
infection
 platelets (thrombocytes): for coagulation

Function of the
Lymphatic System
Removal of excessive tissue fluid, which
develops from increased metabolic activity.
(Lymphatics, or lymph vessels, are found
throughout most of the body.)

Lymphatic System

12
Lymphatic System
lymph: transparent, usually colorless,
tissue fluid
lymph nodes: small, spherical bodies
made up of lymphoid tissue; act as filters
in keeping substances such as bacteria
from the blood

13
Lymphatic System (cont’d)
spleen: located in the left side of the
abdominal cavity between the stomach
and the diaphragm; largest lymphatic
organ in the body
thymus gland: located anterior to the
ascending aorta and posterior to the
sternum between the lungs; plays an
important role in the development of the
body’s immune system
