The Cardiovascular System

  • carries needed substances to cells (O2, proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, hormones)
  • carries waste products (CO2)away from cells
  • blood contains WBC’s (white blood cells) that fight disease.

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

Each time the heart beats, it pushes blood through the blood vessels of the cardiovascular system.

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

15 of 65

The Heart

Each side has an upper chamber, or atrium, which receive blood into the heart

and a lower chamber, or ventricle, that pump blood out of the heart.

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

The Heart

As blood flows out of the heart and toward the lungs, it passes through a valve like the one here.

Two Loops

  • Blood is pumped from the right atrium to the right ventricle and then to the lungs.
  • In the lungs, blood picks up Oxygen and releases carbon dioxide.
  • Blood then flows to the left atrium.

Artery and Vein

In this photo, you can compare the wall of an artery with the wall of a vein.

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

21 of 65

An artery consists of 3 layers, the innermost layer is made up of epithelial cells. The middle layer is mostly smooth muscle, and the outer wall is made up of flexible connective tissue.

Coronary Arteries

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

Pulse is caused by the expanding and narrowing of artery walls. When you count pulse beats, you are also counting heartbeats.

Blood Vessels

The walls of arteries and veins have three layers. The walls of capillaries are only one cell thick. Veins carry blood back to the heart,

Veins have valves

that prevent

blood from flowing

backwards.

Contraction of skeletal

muscles help push blood

towards heart

Breathing movements

squeeze veins in the

chest

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

Blood pressure is the force that blood exerts against the walls of blood vessels, it’s the force at which the ventricles contract.

Red Blood Cells- Erythrocytes

  • Carry O2 and CO2 to and from lungs
  • Produced in bone marrow
  • Living cells without a nucleus or mitochondria
  • Live 100-120 days
  • Contain hemoglobin, an iron containing protein
  • Broken down in spleen & liver
  • About 5,000,000 per cubic mm

Red Blood Cells

Red blood cells pick up O2 in the lungs and carry it to the body cells, they then carry CO2 back to the lungs as waste.

Hemoglobin is an iron-containing protein that binds chemically to O2 molecules, it is found in RBC’s.

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

White Blood Cells - Leukocytes

  • Fight disease
  • Destroy bacteria that invade body
  • Living cells with a nucleus
  • Develop in red marrow
  • Live months or years
  • Patrol the lymphatic system

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

White Blood Cells

  • There are fewer of them.
  • They are bigger.
  • They have a nucleus.
  • Most live for months or years.

Platelets

  • Cell fragments
  • Non-living, no nucleus
  • Help blood to clot / activate release of fibrin(protein weaves net to stop blood)
  • About 300,000 per cubic mm
  • Exist 5- 9 days

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

38 of 65

Platelets

Platelets collect and stick to a cut blood vessel. Fibrin forms and weaves a net of tiny fibers across a cut, trapping blood cells to form a clot.

of body systems to have received enough

O2 rich blood.

Blood transfusion- the transfer of blood from one person to another.

Type A blood has clumping proteins in the plasma that will act against type B blood.

Rh factor- a marker on RBC’s that determines whether a persons blood type is Rh+ or Rh-.

Blood Types

The marker molecules on your red blood cells determine your blood type and the type of blood that you can safely receive in transfusions.

The Lymphatic System

The lymphatic system is a network of vein-like vessels that returns the fluid to the bloodstream.

Lymph nodes filter the lymph, trapping bacteria and other microorganisms that cause disease.

Section 3: The Respiratory System

  • What are the functions of the respiratory system?
  • What structures does air pass through as it travels to the lungs?
  • What happens during gas exchange and breathing?

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

The Path of Air

As air travels from the outside environment to the lungs, it passes through the following structures: nose, pharynx, trachea, and bronchi.

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

47 of 65

Two main functions of the respiratory system…

A. Move O2 from the outside environment into the body.

B. Remove CO2 and H20 from the body.

_______________ is needed for the energy

releasing chemical reaction inside your cells

Oxygen

What is Cellular Respiration???????

4. Respiration is the process in which O2 and glucose undergo a series of chemical reactions inside cells (mitochondria) to release energy (ATP)

Cellular Respiration

ENERGY + 6CO2 + 6H2O

6O2 + Glucose

C6H12O6

ATP

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

49 of 65

Respiratory System Functions

Oxygen from the air and glucose from digested food are both carried to the cells by the blood.

During respiration, oxygen reacts with glucose inside cells to release energy.

22. What happens in the alveoli?

In the Alveoli there is movement of gases between the air and blood.

The trachea is made up of rings of ______________ which

Strengthen and keeps the trachea open.

Cartilage

Diffusion= O2 in & CO2 out

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

53 of 65

Gas Exchange

After air enters an alveolus, oxygen passes through the wall of the alveolus and then through the capillary wall into the blood. Carbon dioxide and water pass from the blood into the alveoli.

Diffusion= O2 in & CO2 out

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

54 of 65

24. The ALVEOLI provides a large

surface area in a relatively small

space. Calculating the surface area of adult Alveoli in both lungs it’s equal to a tennis court.

Each lung has 300-400 million

Alveoli.

Diffusion= O2 in & CO2 out

The Diaphragm is a large dome shaped- muscle that plays an important role in breathing.

Rib muscles & diaphragm contract, making the chest cavity larger

The rib muscles & diaphragm relax, & the chest cavity becomes smaller

The pressure inside the lungs decreases

Air rushes into the chest and you inhale

The air is squeezed out of the lungs and you exhale

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

56 of 65

How You Breathe

When you breathe, the actions of your rib muscles and diaphragm expand or contract your chest. As a result, air flows in or out.

The vocal cords are folds of connective tissue stretching across the opening of the larynx that produce the voice.

Vocal cords

Muscles make the vocal cords contract.

Air from the lungs rushes through the

opening between them. The movement

of the vocal cords makes the air vibrate

to create a sound.

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

58 of 65

Breathing and Speaking

Two vocal cords, folds of connective tissue that produce your voice, stretch across the opening of the larynx. Air moving over the vocal cords causes them to vibrate and produce sound.

  • How may tobacco smoke affect the body?
  • What are some respiratory diseases that result from infections or other physical conditions?

Question

Answer

What are some cardiovascular diseases?

Heart / blood vessels

Atherosclerosis

Hypertension

What are some respiratory diseases?

Lungs / trachea / bronchi

Emphysema, lung cancer, chronic bronchitis, asthma, pneumonia

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

61 of 65

Health Problems and Smoking

Tobacco smoke damages the respiratory system and strains the circulatory system, resulting in such diseases as emphysema, cancer, and chronic bronchitis.

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

A stroke is when a blood vessel in the brain bursts or becomes blocked, no blood flow to the brain, no O2 will damage brain.

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

63 of 65

Respiratory Diseases

During an asthma attack, air passages narrow and breathing is more difficult.

Chapter 14 Circulation and Respiration

64 of 65

Health Problems and Smoking

Chemicals from tobacco smoke enter the blood and are absorbed by blood vessels. The chemicals irritate the blood vessels making the opening more narrow.

With pneumonia, fluid builds up in the alveoli,

decreasing the lungs ability to exchange gases

and breathing becomes difficult.
