HUMAN BODY

THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM

 ORGAN SYSTEM
O OUR BODY IS MADE UP OF LARGE NO. OF CELLS
Cell

O MANY CELLS TOGETHER MAKE A TISSUE

Tissu
e
O MANY TISSUE TOGETHER MAKE UP AN
ORGAN LIKE STOMACH, HEART

A GROUP OF ORGANS THAT WORK TOGETHER TO

PERFORM A PARTICULAR FUNCTION CONSTITUES
AN ORGAN SYSTEM
 CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
THE ORGAN SYSTEM THAT CIRCULATES
BLOOD AND TRANSPORT NUTRIENTS, WATER AND
OXYGEN
IN OUR BODY
AND ALSO REMOVES WASTES SUCH AS CARBON
DIOXIDE
 PARTS OF CIRCULATORY
SYSTEM
1. HEART

2. BLOOD - RBC, WBC AND PLATELETS

3. BLOOD VESSELS – ARTERIES , VEINS

AND CAPILLARIES
 HEAR
OFTHEART IS TO
THE MAIN FUNCTION

PUMP OXYGEN
AND NUTRIENTS
RICH BLOOD TO
THE WHOLE BODY
IT ALSO RECEIVE
BLOOD CONTAINING
CARBON DIOXIDE
FROM ALL THE
PARTS OF BODY AND
PUMPS IT TO LUNGS
THE RATE AT WHICH
HEART BEATS IS CALLED
PULSE
PULSE RATE : 60-100
beats
per
minutes
 BLOOD
BLOOD FLOWS IN THIN PIPES CALLED BLOOD VESSELS

IT MADE UP OF 3 KINDS OF CELL IN A WATERY LIQUID CALLED

PLASMA
WHY BLOOD IS
RED?
OUR BLOOD CONTAINS A PROTIEN CALLED
HAEMOGLOBIN. THE HAEMOGLOBIN COMBINES WITH
OXYGEN AND BECOMES RED IN COLOR
FUNCTIONS OF BLOOD
TRANSPORT OXYGEN ABSORBD BY LUNGS TO ALL THE PARTS
OF BODY

TRANSPORT CO2 FROM ALL THE PARTS OF BODY TO LUNGS

TRANSPORTS NUTRIENTS ABSORBED IN INTESTINES TO ALL THE

PARTS OF BODY

CARRIES WASTE PRODUCTS TO KIDNEYS

MAINTAIN TEMPERATURE OF OUR BODY

WHITE BLOOD CELLS HAVE ANTIBODIES WHICH DEFENDS US

FROM INFECTION AND FOREIGN BODIES

PLATELETS HELP THE BLOOD TO CLOT WHEN WE ARE BLEEDING

 BLOOD VESSELS
THIN TUBE LIKE STRUCTURE WHICH CARRY BLOOD IN BODY

ARTERIES: RED COLOURED BLOOD VESSELS THAT CARRIES

OXYGEN RICH BLOOD FROM HEARTS TO VARIOUS ORGANS

LARGEST ARTERIES : AORTA

VEINS: BLUE COLOURED BLOOD VESSELS THAT CARRIES

CO2 RICH BLOOD FROM VARIOUS ORGANS TO HEART

LARGEST VEINS : VENA CAVA

CAPILLARIES: * THINNEST BLOOD VESSELS THAT CONNECTS

ARTERIES TO VEINS
* IT REACHES INSIDE THE TISSUES.
* EXHANGE OF GASES, NUTRIENTS AND
WASTES BETWEEN BOOLD
AND TISSUES TAKE PALCE HERE
 CIRCULATION OF BLOOD
• LUNGS TAKES IN OXYGEN - > HEART PUMP OXYGENATED BLOOD
TO ALL THE PARTS OF THE BODY THROUGH ARTERIES

• THE BLOOD REACHES THE VARIOUS TISSUES IN THE ORGANS

AND GIVES OUT OXYGEN AND TAKE IN CARBAN DIOXIDE

• OUR HEART COLLECT THE DEOXYGENATED BOLOOD FROM

VARIOUS PARTS IF BODY THROUGH VEINS AND SEND IT TO THE
LUNGS

• LUNGS GIVES OUT CARBON DIOXIDE AND TAKES IN OXYGEN
