    Transport

    To describe how the substance in our body

    move from one part to the other part

    Transport process varies in different types of

    organism

    Difference transport in unicellular and

    multicellular organisms

    1. Unicellular organism

    Ex?

    They have large total surface area to volume

    (TSA/V) ration that enable substance to diffuseeasily into the cell

    To obtain oxygen and nutrients directly fromexternal environment

    Carbon dioxide and other waste product alsoeliminated by diffusion through plasmamembrane

    So, They do not need any internal transport

    system

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    6/107

    Multicellular organisms

    Ex?

    The TSA/V ration decreases

    Cells often located away from external surface ofthe body

    Diffusion rate also decrease which is a limitingfactor to cellular activities in large animals

    These organism have specialized structure toincrease surface area ( alveolus)

    They also need circulatory system to

    Distribute nutrients and oxygen

    Remove waste product

    Functions of the circulatory systemThe circulatory system has three functions:

    1. Transportingsubstances around the body. These

    include oxygen, glucose, carbon dioxide, nutrients,

    water and waste products.

    3. Protectingthe body. Blood contains cells

    and anti-bodies that fight infection andclotting agents to stop bleeding.

    2. Controllingbody temperature.

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    1. Medium of transport/ Blood

    Animals:Blood which consist of blood plasma, blood cells

    ( RBC, WBC) and plateles

    Invertebrates:Ex:

    Use haemolymph(fluid in hoemocoel)

    Hoemocoel: rongga

    Functions: transport material around the body

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    14/107

    Blood

    Blood is the bodys means of transportingsubstances around. It transports:

    oxygenfrom the lungs to the heart and then to the

    bodys tissues

    carbon dioxidefrom the tissues to the heart and

    then to the lungs to be expired

    materials like hormonesfrom one organ to another

    nutrients(especially glucose) and mineralsfrom the

    intestines to the tissues

    waste productsto the kidneys.

    Composition of Human Blood

    Blood: connective tissue that are composed of

    1. Cellular components (45%)

    Platelets

    Erythrocytes (RBC)

    Leucocytes( WBC)

    1. Plasma (55%)

    Water(90%)

    Soluble solutes

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    16/107

    Cellular components ( 45%)

    1. Platelets

    Fragments of cells from bone marrow

    No nucleus Important for blood clotting process

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    17/107

    1.Platelets

    Formed in red bone marrow.

    Produce thrombokinase

    a chemical needed for blood clotting.

    Platelets help to repair tissuesand close woundsboth

    internally and externally.

    When needed, they grow intoirregular shapes and stick together to

    form a plugover the wound.

    Plateletsare also carried in the blood.

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    18/107

    They aggregate and release factors which

    promote the blood coagulation.

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    19/107

    2.Red blood cells

    Also called erythrocytes.

    Disc-shaped.

    Made in the bone marrow.

    Contain a red-coloured compound

    called haemoglobinwhich bonds

    with oxygen to formoxyhaemoglobin.

    Transport oxygen to the tissues.

    Blood is made up of a number of different elements.

    The most common cell in blood is the red blood cell.

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    20/107

    In the other vertebrates (e.g. fishes,

    amphibians, reptilians and birds), they have a

    nucleus.

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    21/107

    3.White blood cells

    Also called leucocytes.

    They are bigger than red

    blood cells and have large

    nuclei.

    Act as the bodys defencesystem.

    Blood also contains white blood cells.

    Some white blood cells surround and consume

    harmful microbes.

    Some produce chemicals called antibodiesthat

    fight infection.

    colorless

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    Each type of leukocyte is present in the blood

    in different proportions:

    neutrophil 50 - 70 %

    eosinophil 2 - 4 %

    basophil 0,5 - 1 %

    lymphocyte 20 - 40 %

    monocyte 3 - 8 %

    23/107

    In fact, these granules have a different affinity

    towards neutral, acid or basic stains and give

    the cytoplasm different colors.

    So, granulocytes distinguish themselves in

    neutrophil, eosinophil (or acidophil) and

    basophil.

    In the different types of granulocytes, the

    granules are different and help us to

    distinguish them.

    In fact, these granules have a different affinity

    towards neutral, acid or basic stains and give

    the cytoplasm different colors.

    So, granulocytes distinguish themselves in

    neutrophil, eosinophil (or acidophil) and

    basophil

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    34/107

    Lymphocytesare cells which, besides being presentin the blood,

    Its populate the lymphoid tissues and organs too, aswell as the lymph circulating in the lymphaticvessel.

    An antibody is a molecule able to bind itself to

    molecules of a complementary shapecalled antigens, and recognize them.

    As for all proteins, even the antibodies are coded by

    genes. On the basis of a recombination mechanism of

    some of these genes, every lymphocyte producesantibodies of a specific shape.

    Glucose + o2 -energy +co2+ water

    Carbon dioxide transported from cells to lungs/

    alveolus in the form of:

    a)Hydrogen carbonate ions

    b) Carbaminohemoglobin

    c)Dissolves directly in the blood plasma

    When the blood reaches the lungs, the co2 release

    and diffuse out of the blood into the alveoli

    4.Transport of excretory waste

    products

    1. Deamination

    Process removing the amino group from the

    excess amino acid.

    The amino group is converted to ammonia

    and then to urea by the liver

    From liver, urea transported by blood to

    kidneys to be excreted

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    56/107

    5.Transport of hormones

    Blood transport hormones produced by

    endocrine gland to the target organs

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    58/107

    7. Transport of absorbed food

    materials

    Soluble digested food, vitamins and mineral

    absorbed into capillaries of the villi in small

    intestine

    Ex: simple sugar: glucose

    Amino acids

    Water soluble vitamins

    Mineral salts

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    59/107

    They are transported by the hepatic portal

    veinfrom small intestine to liver and then to

    the heart

    Other food materials are absorbed into

    lacteals in the villi

    Ex: fatty acids, glycerol , vitamin ADEK (Fat

    soluble susbtances)

    They are then transported by the lymph into

    the blood circulatory system via the left

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    65/107

    Function of Haemolymph in transport

    Haemolymph:

    the circulating fluid in open tissue spaces ofinvertebrates

    A circulating blood-like nutritive fluid which

    fills the entire body cavity called haemocoel A circulating system in invertebrates = open

    circulatory system because the haemolymph:

    1. Is not confined to vessels only2. Bathes the tissues and internal organs

    directly

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    66/107

    Nutrients such as digested food and hormones

    diffuse from haemolymph into cells. Waste products diffuse out from cells into the

    haemolymph

    Haemolymph does not transport respiratorygases.

    The ARTERY

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    74/107

    The ARTERY

    thick muscle and

    elastic fibres

    Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart.

    the elastic fibres allow the

    artery to stretchunder

    pressure

    the thick muscle cancontract to pushthe

    blood along.

    The VEIN

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    75/107

    The VEIN

    Veins carry deoxygenated blood towards from the

    heart.

    thin muscle and

    elastic fibres

    veins have valves

    which act to stop the

    blood from going in

    the wrong direction.

    body muscles surround the veins

    so that when they contract to

    move the body, they also

    squeeze the veins and push the

    blood along the vessel.

    The CAPILLARY

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    76/107

    The CAPILLARY

    Capillaries link Arterioles with

    Venus

    the wall of a

    capillary

    is only one cell thick

    they exchange materials

    between the blood and

    other body cells.

    The exchange of materials

    between the blood and thebody can only occur

    through capillaries.

    the human circulatory system?

    Location of the Heart

    Location of the Heart

    The heart is located between the lungs behindthe sternum and above the diaphragm.

    It is surrounded by the pericardium.

    It is a fluid filled sac that surrounds the heart

    Its size is about that of a fist, and its weight is

    about 250-300 g.

    Location of the heart in the thorax

    Anatomy of the heart

    Heart made up of myogenic cardiac

    muscles which contract and relaxautomatically throughout life

    It is not controlled by nervous system

    The human heart has four chambers:

    1. Left and right Atrium (atria= plural)

    Upper chambers which receive blood

    returning to the heart

    Thin -walled2. Left and right ventricles

    Lower chambers which pump blood out of

    the heart Thick walled

    Septum:

    Separatesthe right chambers from the left

    chambers

    The valves: ensure that blood flows only in one

    direction.

    1. Tricuspid valve

    2. Bicuspid valve

    3. Semi lunar valve

    The Heart Valves

    The tricuspid valve-the valve between the

    right atrium and right ventricle

    The bicuspid valve- the valve between left

    atrium and left ventricle

    Semi lunar valve- the valves at the base ofaorta and pulmonary artery

    The right pump forces deoxygenated blood tothe lungs

    The left pump forces oxygenatedblood to

    other parts of the body

    SAN and AVN

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    98/107

    SAN and AVN

    Electrical signal begins in the sinoatrial (SA)

    node: "natural pacemaker."

    causes the atria to contract.

    Blood is then forced into the ventricles

    The signal then passes through theatrioventricular (AV) node.

    sends the signal to the ventricles via the

    bundle of His causes the ventricles to contract.

    And pump the blood out of the heart

    Right ventricle pumps the blood intopulmonary arterywhich forces the blood to

    the lung

    Left ventricle pumps the blood into aortawhich forces the blood to all part of the body

    The Conduction System

    The Conduction System

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    101/107

    Left ventricle is thickerand more muscularthan the wall of the right ventricles

    Because it needs to generate greater pressure

    to pump blood to all parts of the body

    While the right ventricle pumps the blood to

    the lungs only

    What is the cardiac cycle?

    What is the cardiac cycle?

    Cardiac cycle is the series of events that occurduring one complete heartbeat

    Including contraction (systole) and relaxation (

    diastole) of both atria and ventricles

    The sino atrial node(SAN) can initiate theheartbeat on its own

    Sympathetic nerve carrying impulse to the heartcan increase the heart rate

    Parasympathetic nerve can slow it down

    The heart rate increase when: Increase in the secretion of hormone

    (adrenaline)

    An increase in partial pressure of carbondioxide in the blood

    Body temperature is elevated

    to the heart?

    1.Muscle relaxed , valves closed

    2.Muscles contract, upper valves open and

    blood is forced upwards , lower valve remain

    close

    3. Muscles relaxed, upper valves closed, lower

    valve opens as a result of muscle contraction

    elsewhere and blood flows forwards

    Regulatory mechanism of blood

  • 8/13/2019 Chap1 Transport FORM 5

    106/107

    pressure

    Blood pressure is the force of the blood exertedof the arterial blood vessels

    Arterial blood pressure is highest during

    ventricular systole , and lowest during diastole

    Baroreceptors monitor the pressure of blood

    flowing to the body and to the brain

    Baroreceptor located in the walls of the aortaand carotid arteries branch out from the aorta.
