    The circulatory system transports nutrients, oxygen, hormones, and removes waste throughout the body via the heart, blood vessels, and blood. The heart has four chambers that pump blood which either supplies oxygen to or removes carbon dioxide from tissues. Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart while veins return deoxygenated blood. Capillaries exchange gases and nutrients. Blood contains red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and plasma.

    CIRCULATORY

    SYSTEM
    THE CIRCULATORY
    SYSTEM
    It is the life support structure that nourishes
    your cells with nutrients from the food you
    eat and oxygen from the air you breathe

    The circulatory system also functions with


    other body systems to deliver different
    materials in the body
    FUNCTIONS OF THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM

    1. Transport of nutrients, oxygen, and hormones to cells


    throughout the body and removal of metabolic wastes

    2. Protection of the body by white blood cells, antibodies,


    and complement proteins that circulate in the blood and
    defend the body against foreign microbes and toxins

    3. Regulation of body temperature, fluid pH, and water


    content of cells.
    3 MAJOR PARTS OF THE
    CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
    1. HEART- pumps the blood throughout the
    body

    2. BLOOD VESSEL- carries the blood


    throughout the body

    3. BLOOD- carries the materials throughout


    the body
    THE HEART
    FOUR CHAMBERS OF THE HEART
    RIGHT CHAMBER LEFT CHAMBER
    RA LA
    RV LV
    RIGHT ATRIUM- LEFT ATRIUM-
    receives blood from the veins receives oxygenated blood
    and pumps it to the right from the lungs and pumps it
    ventricle. to the left ventricle.

    RIGHT VENTRICLE- LEFT VENTRICLE- (the


    receives blood from the right strongest chamber) pumps
    atrium and pumps it to the oxygen-rich blood to the rest
    lungs, where it is loaded with of the body.
    oxygen.
    BLOOD VESSELS
    1. ARTERIES- Carry oxygenated blood away from
    the heart to the cells, tissues an organs of the
    body

    2. VEINS- Carry deoxygenated blood to the heart

    3. CAPILLIARIES- the smallest blood vessels in


    the body, connecting the smallest arteries to the
    smallest veins
    - the actual site where gases and nutrients are
    exchanged
    - Carries materials throughout the body

    BLOOD COMPONENTS

    1. RED BLOOD CELLS


    2. WHITE BLOOD CELLS
    3. PLATELETS
    4. PLASMA
    -aka ERYTHROCYTES
    -its function is to supply oxygen to the body cells
    -it has biconcave shape
    - HEMOGLOBIN gives its red color
    -aka LEUKOCYTES
    - It protects the body from infections, viruses and
    bacteria

    Types of WBC
    1. Monocytes- helps breakdown bacteria
    2. Lymphocytes- create antibodies to defend against
    bacteria
    3. Neutrophils- kill and digest bacteria and fungi
    - first line of defense when infections
    strikes
    4. Basophils- release histamine for allergic reactions
    -also thought to play a role in causing the
    body to produce the antibody called
    immunoglobulin E (IgE)

    5. Eosinophil- defense against parasitic infections


    - modulation of immediate hypersensitivity
    reactions
    -aka thrombocytes
    - Helps in blood clotting
    - Maintains haemostasis
    - Platelets are produced in the bone marrow
    -It carries these blood components throughout the
    body as the fluid in which they travel.

    -Plasma is the largest component of your blood,


    making up about 55% of its overall content. When
    isolated on its own, blood plasma is a light yellow
    liquid, similar to the color of straw. Along with water,
    plasma carries salts and enzymes.
