Veins

Blood vessels that carry blood back to the heart

cardiovascular system

Blood vessels transport blood, which carries oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, wastes, etc. The heart pumps blood.

Blood CIrculation step 2

Carbon dioxide is dropped off in the lungs and oxygen is picked up.

pulmonary loop

Carries deoxygenated blood FROM Heart-Lungs-Heart. picks up oxygen

Thrombocyte 1%

Cell fragments that form.

Elements of blood functions

Deliver water, oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and heat to all areas of the body

Integumentary system

Epidermis, thin layer Dermis, middle layer that contains most skin structures Hypodermis, innermost layer that contains fat and connective tissue.

Leukocyte 4%white blood

Fights off infections

Heart

Includes 4 chambers, Aorta and Pulmonary Artery

skeletal system

Protects and supports body organs and provides a framework the muscles use to support movement. Made up of bones and joints

Hemoglobin

Protein carries oxygen and gives red color

pulse points

Temporal, carotid, femoral, pedal

Blood circulation part 5

The left side of the heart pumps bright red newly oxygenated blood through the artery to all other areas of the body in the systemic loop.

blood circulation step 1

The right side squeezes dark deoxygenated blood from the body out through the pulmonary artery to the lungs.

Blood circulation part 4

Thin walls of capillary allows gases, nutrients, and other materials to pass through between the blood and surrounding body tissues.

Erythrocyte 41%

Transport oxygen and carbon dioxide to and from body TISSUES.

diastolic pressure

Ventricles fill up and relax

Plasma 55%

Yellow liquid carries nutrients, hormones, and waste

Antibodies are proteins produced by leukocytes that bind and disable antigens.

are proteins produced by leukocytes that bind and disable antigens.

blood circulation part 3

blood returns to the heart in pulmonary loop

Shock

blood volume is low and organs don't receive enough blood.

Arteries

carry blood away from the heart

hinge joint

elbow and knee and jaw ( open and close)

Antigen

foreign substance that causes antibodies

systolic pressure

heart contracts

systematic loop

heart-body-heart and drops oxygen

Blood pressure

measures force of blood on the artery

capilaries

microscopic blood vessels that connect arteries and veins

red bone marrow

produces blood cells

integumentary system functions

protects against environmental hazards, helps regulate body temperature, provides sensory information.

Diaphysis

shaft of a long bone

Ball and socket joints

shoulder and hip

blood vessels

the rate that flows blood from one place to another.

Periosteum

thin layer of bone

capillary beds

tiny vessels that exchanges heat, nutrients, hormones and waste, CO2 and Oxygen.

condyloid joint

wrist, fingers, be side by side.
