Colin Tube 12-7-15 Anatomy Cardiovascular System The Cardiovasuclar system is one of the most important systems in your body and it is also one of the largest systems in your body. This system consists of the heart‚ and a system of vessels called arteries‚ veins and capillaries. They are responsible for transporting‚ nutrients hormones‚ oxygen and waste throughout the body. All of these play an important part in this system and the system would fall apart if one wasn’t there. This system is is powered

and then pumps it into the arteries to deliver its oxygen around the body. The deoxygenated blood enters the top right chamber of the heart‚ named the right atrium‚ through two veins. Blood from the upper portion of the body‚ like the head and arms‚ flows in through the superior vena cava. Blood from the lower body‚ which are the legs‚ comes in by the inferior vena cava. The blood that is in need of oxygen is forced to leave the right ventricle‚ across the the pulmonary valve

Ventricle By Jonas Wilson‚ Ing. Med. Double outlet right ventricle (DORV) is a rare congenital disorder where both of the great arteries‚ namely the aorta and the pulmonary artery‚ arise from the right ventricle. Normally‚ the aorta arises from the left ventricle where it receives oxygen-rich blood that is sent to the rest of the body. In contrast‚ the pulmonary artery normally exits from the right ventricle and carries oxygen-poor blood from the heart to the lungs for oxygenation. In addition

When your heart contracts and forces blood into the blood vessels‚ there is a certain path that the blood follows through our body. The blood moves through pulmonary circulation and then continues on through systemic circulation. Pulmonary and systemic are the two circuits in the two-circuit system of higher animals with closed circulatory systems. As the heart pumps‚ blood is pushed through our body through the entire circulatory system. Oxygenated blood is pumped away from the heart to the rest

It has two circuits the pulmonary and systemic. The pulmonary circuit carries blood to the lungs that needs to be oxygenated and brings it back to the heart again. In the systemic circuit it carries the oxygenated blood around the body and the deoxygenated blood returns to the heart. The He

The heart pumps blood through the network of arteries and veins called the cardiovascular system. The heart has four chambers; the left and right atrium‚ left and right ventricle and the coronary Arteries that run along the surface of the heart and provide oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle (The Heart 2014). The primary function of the human heart is an organ that pumps
