The Blood Circulatory System The Circulatory system is a system in the bodies of all organisms that moves the nutrients that are needed as well as gases and wastes to and from cells and helps fight unwanted bacteria and other diseases.

It brings the body’s cells what they need in order to survive – oxygen and nutrients. The center of the circulatory

genetic disease that affects the shape and functionality of red blood cells. It is caused by a mutation in the DNA of the protein‚ hemoglobin‚ specifically in the beta chain. There are 531 base pairs in this DNA strand. Substitution or point mutation occurs‚ causing “GAG” to become “GTG”. This results in valine being created instead of glutamate. The mutation causes the hemoglobin to cling together in low oxygen levels and the red blood cell changes shape‚ preventing it from carrying as much oxygen. The
