The Cardiovascular System The heart is one the primary organs in our body. The cardiovascular (CV) system is made up of the heart‚ the blood and the vessels through which blood travels. The CV system works in sequence with the respiratory system to maintain homeostasis. The heart acts as a pump which move the blood through the blood vessels to the tissues and organs of the body. This allows the CV system to help maintain homeostasis by enabling it to carry out its four major functions

CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM OF THE HEAD NECK The cardiovascular system consists of the heart‚ blood vessels‚ and the approximately 5 liters of blood that the blood vessels transport. Responsible for transporting oxygen‚ nutrients‚ hormones‚ and cellular waste products throughout the body‚ the cardiovascular system is powered by the body’s hardest-working organ — the heart‚ which is only about the size of a closed fist. Even at rest‚ the average heart easily pumps over 5 liters of blood throughout

The cardiovascular system plays a vital role in circulating blood throughout the body to maintain human life. The system consists of a heart and blood vessels that help delivers blood containing oxygen and nutrients to the body organs and tissues for function. The heart is a muscular body organ located on the left side of a human chest. The heart has four chambers are known as the right atrium‚ right ventricle‚ left atrium and the left ventricle. Blood travels through the four chambers by the heart
