The cardiovascular system is a closed organ system that is found within humans and other vertebrates. The heart consists of the right and left ventricle‚ right and left atrium‚ aorta‚ capillaries‚ pulmonary arteries and veins and the anterior and posterior vena cava. All of the following structures maintain the heart’s beating cycle and the circulation of blood throughout the body. Three main types of blood vessels: Arteries - Thick-walled tubes in which blood is brought from the heart to various
