Circulatory Systems
3
Exchange of materials Animal cells exchange material across their cell membrane fuels for energy nutrients oxygen waste (urea, CO2)
4
Exchange of materials If you are a 1-cell organism that’s easy!
If you are many- celled that’s harder
5
What needs to be transported
Nutrients & Fuels: from digestive system Respiratory Gases: O2 & CO2 from & to gas exchange systems: lungs, gills Intracellular Waste: waste products from cells {water, salts, nitrogenous wastes (urea)}
6
Protective Agents immune defences: white blood cells & antibodies blood clotting agents Regulatory Molecules: hormones
7
Circulatory Systems All animals have: circulatory fluid = “blood”
tubes = blood vessels muscular pump = heart
9
Open circulatory system
Invertebrates: insects, arthropods, mollusks Structure no separation between blood & interstitial fluid hemolymph
10
Closed circulatory system
Invertebrates: earthworms, squid, octopuses Vertebrates
11
Closed circulatory system
Structure: blood confined to vessels & separate from interstitial fluid 1 or more hearts large vessels to smaller vessels material diffuses between vessels & interstitial fluid
12
Vertebrate cardiovascular system
Chambered heart atrium = receive blood ventricle = pump blood out
13
Heart Structure The wall separating the left and right sides of your heart is known as the septum.
14
Heart Structure Each side has a thin walled atrium to collect blood above a more muscular ventricle that pumps blood.
15
Heart Structure Between the different regions of the heart are valves to ensure blood only flows in one direction.
16
Mammalian Heart
17
Vertebrate cardiovascular system
Blood vessels arteries = carry blood away from heart, arterioles veins = return blood to heart, venules capillaries = point of exchange, thin wall, capillary beds = networks of capillaries
18
Arteries Arterioles Capillaries Venules Veins
19
Two Systems in One The left and right side of your heart do different functions. The right side of your heart pumps blood to the lungs to exchange CO2 for O2 in the pulmonary circuit.
20
Two Systems in One The left side of your heart pumps oxygen rich blood around your body in the systemic circuit. Blood moving through the heart is the cardiac circuit.
21
Mammalian Circulation
Systemic Circulation Pulmonary Circulation Pulmonary Circulation Systemic Circulation
22
Heart Valves 4 valves in the heart flaps of connective tissue
prevent backflow
23
Heart Valves Atrioventricular (AV) valve between atrium & ventricle
keeps blood from flowing back into atria when ventricles contract “lub”
24
Heart Valves Semilunar valves between ventricle & arteries
prevent backflow from arteries into ventricles while they are relaxing “dub”
25
Heart Sounds The heart beat is actually controlled within the heart itself by two bundles of nerves.
26
Heart Sounds The sinoatrial (SA) node acts as a pacemaker causing the atria to contract while the atrioventricular (AV) node ensures the ventricles contract a moment later.
27
Lub-dub, lub-dub closing of valves
“Lub”: recoil of blood against closed AV valves “Dub”: recoil of blood against semilunar valves Heart murmur defect in valves causes hissing sound when stream of blood squirts backward through valve
28
Cardiac cycle 1 complete sequence of pumping heart contracts & pumps
heart relaxes & chambers fill
29
Cardiac cycle contraction phase systole: ventricles pumps blood out
relaxation phase diastole: atria refill with blood
