Q

2 divisions of the circulatory system

A

Bloodvascularsystem
– Heart, arteries, veins, and capillaries

Lymph vascular system
– Lymph spaces, lymph vessels, and lymph
nodes

(Lymph
– Clear fluid that circulates in lymphatics of the body, part of immune system contains white blood cells)

17
Q

The four heart chambers and valves

A
• Right and left atrium
– Upper, thin-walled chambers
– Blood is pumped to the ventricles
• Right and left ventricle
– Lower, thick-walled chambers
• Valves
– Temporarily close a passage or permit flow in only one direction
18
Q

Pulmonary circulation

Systemic circulation

A

PC- sends blood from heart to lungs

SC- sends blood from heart thru body

19
Q

Arteries
Capillaries
Veins

A

A- carry blood away from heart

C- connect small arteries to veins

V- prevent back flow and carry blood containing waste back to the heart and lungs

20
Q

Blood facts

A
  • Nutritivefluid
  • 8 to 10 pints in adults
  • 1/20th of body weight
  • 80% water
  • Sticky, salty fluid
  • Temperature of 98.6 degrees F
  • Bright red in arteries (except pulmonary) • Dark red in veins
21
Q

Composition of the blood

A

– Red blood cells (contain hemoglobin)
– White blood cells (leukocytes)
– Platelets (smaller than red blood cells; contribute to blood-clotting process)
– Plasma (90 percent water with proteins and sugars)

22
Q

Functions of the blood

A

– Carries water, oxygen, and food to cells
– Carries away carbon dioxide and waste
– Helps equalize body temperature
– Works with immune system for protection
– Seals leaks by forming clots
