    Section A Explain the functions of the heart, and structure of arties, veins and capillaries. The function of the heart is the blood pumps through the body by the circulatory system. The blood will provide the body with oxygen and nutrients. The heart controls the circulatory system. Veins • Transport the blood to the heart • The lumen passage is large • Have dark red blood and is deoxygenated • The valves in the veins prevents back flow Arteries • The blood is bright red and there is oxygen

    The main system that was studied in the past labs was the circulatory system. The circulatory system consists of the heart, the blood and all its components, arteries, and veins. The blood is composed of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets which are all important. Red blood cells are used to transport respiratory gases to the body, white blood cells are the body’s defense mechanism, and platelets are what helps blood clot when there is an opening in the surface of the skin or in the

    The circulatory system and digestive system in a number of integral ways are related, as are many parts of the body. The gut, or enteric system, requires roughly 30% of all cardiac output as it contains several digestive organs. A large quantity of blood is required for ongoing digestive functions and is the basis for the interrelation of each system. Food that is consumed in broken down by the digestive system. It then divides the food into essential modules, such as nutrients and vitamins, which

    so it can perform a movement. The system consists of skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscles. The cardiovascular system and the muscular system both help each other to perform their actions. Due to the fact that muscles require a lot of oxygen the circulatory system takes in the air which is combined with the blood flow and sent to the muscles. When the body is at rest the blood flow carries nutrients to the muscles so they can be repaired. Everyday, muscles produce a lot of waste products so when the

    experiments 1 and 2 and research, to explain how the circulatory and respiratory systems work together to maintain the function of the cells and the body as a whole. In the human body, the circulatory system consists of the heart, blood vessels, arteries, veins and capillaries. The heart pumps blood around the body via the veins. The circulatory system works when nutrients and oxygen are distributed to every cell in the human body by the blood. The Circulatory system also gets rid of waste products such

    Chapter twenty is the last one of the circulatory system and it discussed about the blood vessels and circulation. Blood vessels is the distribution network or the network of tubes.

    conducts it towards the lungs. It would then travel to the alveoli, which are tiny sacs within our lungs, and from there gas exchange would happen, when carbon dioxide from your blood moves out, and oxygen will go into your blood. The blood in the circulatory system will then travel back to your heart, and it will pump blood to the rest of your body. To put it in another way, when we breathe in, oxygen would enter our alveoli, which is located in

    Studies. Unit D: Human Systems in Biology 20 is one of the main sections that becomes relatable to the Program of Studies (POS) for the Heart Rate and Exercise LabQuest activity. General Outcome #2 focuses on how students will explain the role of the circulatory systems and defense systems in maintaining an internal equilibrium. This further goes into measuring the students level of understanding the concepts of heart rate and the factors that affect it (Alberta Education, p. 41). Heart rate can then branch
