The cardiovascular system includes
heart
blood vessels
lymphatic vessels
The heart lies in the chest immediately behind the breastbone.
The heart consists of two chambers, left and right, separated from each other by a wall.
Each chamber is divided into upper compartment (atrium) and lower compartment (ventricle).
aorta
Valves
semilunar valves –
between ventricles and arteries
LA
the tricuspid vaive –
between the right atrium and the right ventricle
RA
LV
RV
the mitral valve –
between the left atrium and the left ventricle
The function of the valves
To prevent blood flowing the wrong way.
The circulation
The heart works as a pump. It circulates blood throughout the body.
The circulation occurs with the help
of arteries and veins.
Blood vessels
Veins
Capillaries
Arteries
thin-walled vessels
vessels returning blood to the heart
vessels carrying blood away from the heart

Blood

Functions
- Trasportation (the nutrients, oxygen are carried by the blood stream and cellular wastes are carried away by the blood stream).
2. Regulation ( supply the constant inner state and temperature of the body ).
3. Protection ( provide the immunity and the blood clotting ).

Blood is a liquid tissue containing plasma and microscopical cellular elements.
Leucocytes
vessel
45 %
Erythrocytes
Thrombocytes
(platelets)
PLASMA
55 %

Erythrocytes
Erythrocytes are red blood cells made in the bone marrow. They are important in transporting oxygen.
Hemoglobin is an important protein
which helps in carrying the oxygen and carrying away carbon dioxide.
hemoglobin
erythrocyte
4.5 – 5 million in each cubic millimeter

Leucocytes
white blood cells
T he cells of the immune system
that are involved in protecting the body .
eosinophil
monocyte
basophil
lymphocyte
neutrophil
leukocytosis
8-10 mkm
leukopenia
From 4,000 to 10,000 per cubic millimeter
12
Thrombocytes
or platelets formed in the bone marrow
These cells are necessary for blood clotting.
2 - 5 mkm
400,000 per cubic millimeter
