41 Forensic Science II: Body Systems, Chapter 6 © 2012 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved Chapter Summary o Each body system can offer clues regarding the events that led up to or occurred during the crime. o The circulatory system systemic circulation pulmonary circulation o The primary role of blood is to transport oxygen to the cells and wastes from them. Components are: red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and plasma.
42
42 Forensic Science II: Body Systems, Chapter 6 © 2012 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved Chapter Summary o Gas exchange occurs in the alveoli of the lungs. o Capillaries, very small blood vessels surrounding the alveoli, transport oxygen into the body and carbon dioxide out of the body. o Lividity occurs when blood pools in the lowest part of the body after a person dies. Lividity provides clues about the time and the position of the body at death. o The primary function of the respiratory system is to remove gaseous wastes from the blood and to transport oxygen.
43
43 Forensic Science II: Body Systems, Chapter 6 © 2012 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved Chapter Summary o The respiratory tract is divided into upper and lower. o Asphyxia occurs when the amount of available oxygen decreases while toxic gases increase. o Suffocation is a form of asphyxia that occurs when the amount of available oxygen decreases. o Rigor mortis is the process where the muscles of the body begin to stiffen after death. Rigor begins within two hours after death and can last from 24 to 48 hours.
