Circulatory System
2
Function Transports Water Oxygen Wastes Regulates temperature Removes disease
3
Circulatory System Heart Center of the circulatory system Large muscle Pumps continuously
4
Circulatory System Blood Vessels Arteries Vessels that take blood away from the heart Veins Vessels that return blood to the heart
5
Circulatory System Capillaries Connect arteries and veins Deliver nutrients to the cells Take away waste
6
Circulatory System Red Blood cells Give blood color Carry oxygen White Blood cells Destroy disease Pus
7
Circulatory System Four Chambers Right Atrium Receives blood into heart from body, from veins Right Ventricle Pumps blood out to the lungs Left Atrium Receives blood into heart from lungs Left Ventricle Pumps blood out into body via arteries
8
Lungs
10
Disorders of the heart Foramen Ovale (infants) Opening in the heart where the blood enters the left atrium from the right atrium. Congestive Heart Failure Heart becomes enlarged and cannot pump properly Heartworms Parasitic worm living in the heart and arteries

Pulmonary System
13
Respiratory Respiration is the exchange of gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide) between the atmosphere and the body cells Ventilation means the bringing in of fresh air Ventilation is also known as breathing
14
Respiratory System Function: Takes oxygen from the air Places it in the bloodstream Removes carbon dioxide
15
The Respiratory System The respiratory system is divided into upper and lower tracts The upper respiratory tract consists of the nose, mouth, pharynx, epiglottis, and larynx The lower respiratory tract consists of the trachea, bronchial tree, and lungs
16
Respiratory System Structures Nostrils Large amounts of air Nasal Chamber Mouth Brings in air
17
Respiratory System Structures Pharynx Passageway for Food Water Air Controlled by epiglottis
18
Respiratory System Larynx Voice box (Adam’s apple) Prevents material from entering lungs.
19
Trachea Large tube Made of rigid cartilaginous rings
20
Respiratory System Bronchi Branch out further Lungs Gas exchange
21
Lungs Gas exchange 3 lobes Superior Middle (smallest) Only on right lung Inferior
22
Lungs Cow Horse smoker Non-smoker
23
Respiratory System Alveoli Surrounded by blood vessels Carbon dioxide is removed from blood Oxygen is absorbed into blood
24
Respiratory System Diaphragm Large muscle under the lungs When contracted, rib cage expands and air comes in When the diaphragm relaxes, air is forced out
