CARDIO VASCULAR
ConsistsSYSTEM
of two pumps (the right
and the left side of the heart) and
complex arrangement of vessels
that transport blood through
nearly every part of the body.
 The HEART as the
DOUBLE
 The purpose PUMP
of any pump is to create
pressure in a fluid, usually by
exerting a force directly on the fluid.
 The heart in higher animals, including
humans, consists of two pumps and
two reservoirs preceding those
pumps.
 RIGHT SIDE OF
 Pumps HEART
THEblood through the lungs to the
left side of the heart.
 LEFT SIDE OF THE
HEART
 Pumps blood through the rest of the
circulatory system, returning it to the
right side of the heart.
 ATRI
A
 Reservoirs for the ventricles, which
are the main pumps. (It pumps blood
into the ventricles.)

 HEART
VALVES
 Are opened or closed by pressure
differences across them.
 The VALVES between the atria and
ventricles are aided in opening by
cords attached to the interior of the
ventricles.

 BLO
 IsOD
nearly incompressible.
 When ventricles pump blood out of the
heart, the aorta balloons to take up the
extra blood.
