The document discusses the structure and function of the human circulatory system. It describes how the heart pumps blood through arteries, veins and capillaries to supply oxygen and nutrients to tissues throughout the body. The circulatory system is a closed loop that allows blood to circulate continuously, picking up oxygen from the lungs and delivering carbon dioxide back for removal. Blood vessels work together to transport blood in a regulated manner to sustain life.
