CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
The CIRCULATORY SYSTEM is made up of blood vessels that carry blood away
from and towards the heart. Arteries carry blood away from the heart and veins carry
blood back to the heart. The circulatory system carries oxygen, nutrients, and
hormones to cells, and removes waste products, like carbon dioxide.
