What is the role that the Circulatory
System plays in the human body?
 Blood is a built-in delivering system; delivering things to
tissues. Some of the blood’s jobs are: it delivers oxygen
and gets rid of carbon dioxide, it brings nutrients and
remove the waste, it keeps the balance temperature in
your body. Blood also helps defend the body from
illnesses by delivering white blood cells to the site of
injury or infection so they can fix thins. It seals itself off
when you bleed after and injury by clotting.
Organs that make up the Circulatory
System.
 The major organs that make up the circulatory system
are the heart (cardio), blood vessels (vascular), veins,
arteries, arterioles, venues, and capillaries. The heart
squeezes and pumps blood through blood vessels to every
part of the body. The blood vessels are what the blood
travels through. The veins gently drain the blood back to
the heart after it has been distributed to the other parts
of the body.
Organs that make up the Circulatory
System. Silde: 2
 The arteries and
capillaries are what
oxygen-rich blood
travels through to
get oxygen to every
cell in the body.
How do these organs work together?
 Circulation starts when the heart relaxes between
two heartbeats: blood flows from both of the upper
parts of the heart (atria) into the lower two parts of
the heart (ventricles). The next part is called ejection
period, which is when both of the ventricles pump
blood into the larger arteries.
How do these organs work together?
Slide: 2
 In the systemic circulation, the left ventricle pumps
blood into the main artery (aorta). Oxygen-filled
blood travels from the main artery to larger and
smaller arteries into the all the capillaries. There the
blood releases oxygen, nutrients and other important
substances and takes carbon dioxide and waste
substances. The blood, which now doesn’t have much
oxygen, is now put into veins and travels to the right
atrium and into the lower right part of the heart.
Explain How Your System is
Connected to 2 Other Body System.
 The circulatory system is connected to many other
systems. One of those systems is the respiratory
system. The connection is between the heart and the
lungs. The air you inhale eventually goes to sac like
structures called alveoli. What happens is the carbon
dioxide from your red blood cells getting exchanged
with oxygen.
Explain How Your System is
Connected to 2 Other Body Systems.

 Another system is the Urinary System, this happens in
the kidneys. Blood from the heart goes to the kidneys
through the aorta. The kidney filters the blood and
removes all the waste and sends it back to the heart
in veins called the vena cava.
What are the levels of organization in
humans?
Name 2 common diseases or
disorders that directly affect your
system
 Cardiac arrest is type of heart disorder. It’s when the
heart stops working .it happens when blood flows
form the muscles of the heart is not working properly
(impaired).arrested blood or impaired blood prevents
the delivery of oxygen to the body .lack of oxygen to
the blood causes loss of concussions, which then
would result in abnormal breathing or in some cases
death.
Name 2 common diseases or
disorders that directly affect your
system page 2
 heart failure is when the heart fails to pump the
needed amount of blood to the body. The main
systems of heart failures are: Coughing, Tiredness,
Shortness of Breath, fluids in lungs, pumping action
of the heart gets weaker, swelling in abdominal and
feet and ankles.
How can you maintain a health
system?
 To maintain a healthy circulatory system you can
reduce your salt and butter. Your can also exercise
and get enough rest. You must avoid extreme anger,
too much joy and excitement and fear. All these lead
to circulatory system disorder.
Name and describe 2 professions that
work with this system
 Cardiologists are doctors who specially in circulatory
system. There job is to monitor, diagnose and treat
heart conditions without having to do a surgery.
Some cardiologists preform non invasive producers
without surgery. They use a tiny instrument put in the
patients blood vessels and then the instrument goes
to the troubled area.
Name and describe 2 professions that
work with this system page 2
 Cardiac and Vascular Surgeon are doctors who
specifies in giving people surgical procedure to the
heart and veins. These doctors preform open-heart
surgery, Heart Valves and angioplasties repair or limit
the damage of the heart and veins.
Did you know…
 1. The heart beats around 3 billion times in a person's life.
 2. Around 8 million blood cells die every second.
 3.Red blood cells live for about 4 months circulating through the
body, feeding the 60 trillion other body cells.
 4.Circulation starts when the heart relaxes between two
heartbeats.
 5. Blood that is rich in oxygen appears red. Blood that is poor in
oxygen appears blue.
