Q

what are the feature of a closed circulatory system?

A
  • Blood enclosed in the vessels
  • Heart pumps in the blood around the body under pressure quickly and returns to the heart
  • substances enter the body by diffusion through the walls of the blood vessels.

Q

what are the key features of a single closed circulatory system?

A
  • blood passes through two sets of capillaries before it returns back to the heart.
  • first capillaries - exchange oxygen and CO2.
  • second capillaries - substances are exchanged between the blood and cell
  • blood pressure drops in the system so blood returns to the cell slowly

Q

What are the key features of a open circulatory systems ?

A
  • few vessels to contain the transport medium
  • pumped straight from the heart into the body cavity of an animal
  • transports medium returns to the heart through an open ended vessel

Q

what are the key features of a double closed circulatory systems?

A
  • transports substances around the body
  • involved in two separate circulations
  • blood is pumped from the heart to the lungs to pick up oxygen and unload carbon dioxide
  • blood flow through the heart is pumped out to travel all around the body and return to the heart

Q

What is a single circulatory system?

A

In a single circulatory system, the blood passes through the heart once during one complete circuit of the body

17
Q

What is an open circulatory system?

A

In an open circulatory system, blood is not contained within blood vessels but is pumped directly into body cavities
