Cardiovascular system, also known as circulatory system is a system which allows blood to flow throughout the body and transports nutrients, gases and other important enzymes in and out of the cells. It is composed of two components: heart and the blood vessels. This system is highly protected from infections but microbes that successfully invade the system acquire entrance to many body parts affecting every system.
