The Human Circulatory System and the Components
of Blood
Functions of the Cardiovascular System: delivers vital nutrients (e.g., oxygen)
to all body cells eliminates waste products and carbon
dioxide transports chemical messengers (e.g.,
hormones) from one part of the body to another
helps to maintain a constant body temperature

Types of Circulatory System
Open Circulatory System – Hemolymph (mix of blood and tissue fluid) is pumped directly into the body cavity.

Types of Circulatory System
Closed Circulatory System – Blood is separate from the rest of the body in a network of tubes.
![Page 11: Lesson 9 – Intro to circulatory system and BLOOD](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56815f4a550346895dce27f1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Single-circuit circulatory system – Only one track the blood can travel
Two-circuit circulatory system - Circulation to the lungs is separated from circulation to the rest of the body.
![Page 12: Lesson 9 – Intro to circulatory system and BLOOD](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56815f4a550346895dce27f1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Two-Circuit Circulatory System:Circulation to the lungs is separated from circulation to the rest of the body.
pulmonary circuit:the part of the circulatory
system that delivers blood to the lungs
systemic circuit:the part of the circulatory
system that delivers blood around the body
![Page 13: Lesson 9 – Intro to circulatory system and BLOOD](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56815f4a550346895dce27f1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Blood: What is in it?
Human body contains 4L to 5L of blood depending on the size of the individual Blood is a connective tissue – a tissue that
consists of cells suspended in an intercellular matrix
Using a centrifuge, blood can be separated into its two components – plasma (less dense, rises to top) and cellular components (more dense, sinks to bottom)
![Page 14: Lesson 9 – Intro to circulatory system and BLOOD](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56815f4a550346895dce27f1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Plasma:
Protein-rich liquid; over 90% is water Oxygen, proteins, nutrients (glucose,
minerals and vitamins), carbon dioxide and other waste products from cellular respiration are dissolved or suspended in plasma
![Page 15: Lesson 9 – Intro to circulatory system and BLOOD](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56815f4a550346895dce27f1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Blood proteins in plasma include; albumins, globulins, fibrogens Albumins: helps regulate the amount of water
within the body Globulins: transports lipids, cholesterol, some
fat-soluble vitamins, some minerals▪ Immunglobins (or antibodies) help fight infectious
diseases Fibrogens: play a critical role in blood clotting;
plasma with fibrogen removed is called serum
![Page 16: Lesson 9 – Intro to circulatory system and BLOOD](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56815f4a550346895dce27f1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Plasma also carries a number of dissolved ions: Na+, K+, Ca2+, Cl- , HCO3
-. Na+ and Cl- are most common ions. When the concentration of Na+ in the plasma is high, it creates an osmotic pressure gradient and causes water to enter the blood stream. As more water enters the blood, the total volume of blood increases and the blood pressure rises. This explains why high salt diets lead to hypertension (high blood pressure)

Cellular Components:
Red Blood Cells - For Transport (erythrocytes) carry oxygen from the lungs to the body
cells and carry carbon dioxide from the body cells back to the lungs to be expelled
Formed from stem cells in marrow of vertebrae, ribs, breastbone, skull and bones of the arms and legs
Erythrocytes die after about 120 days ; then removed by the liver and spleen
Between 2million and 3 million erythrocytes are produced each second
When erythrocytes are developing in the marrow, they have a nucleus, but as they mature and are released into the blood stream, their nucleus breaks down and disappears.
![Page 20: Lesson 9 – Intro to circulatory system and BLOOD](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56815f4a550346895dce27f1/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
White Blood Cells – For Protection
- (Leukocytes) are formed in bone marrow and always have a nuclei
first line of defense against harmful bacteria, viruses and other
disease causing agents
![Page 21: Lesson 9 – Intro to circulatory system and BLOOD](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56815f4a550346895dce27f1/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
▪ Granular – have grains in their cytoplasm and attach foreign material and microorganisms▪ Agranular – specialized for engulfing bacteria
and microorganisms through phagocytosis. This involves engulfing the bacteria within the cell membrane and release enzymes to destroy the target and the leucocyte itself
Remnants of leuckocytes and whatever it engulfed are left behind in a whitish substance called pus
![Page 22: Lesson 9 – Intro to circulatory system and BLOOD](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050723/56815f4a550346895dce27f1/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Platelets (thrombocyte) – For Protection
For protection; involved in clotting or coagulation Small cell fragments produced from stem cells in
bone marrow When blood vessel is broken, chemicals in
platelets cause the platelets to stick to collagen fibres in the blood vessel wall. As more and more platelets stick to the fibres, a clot is created to seal the hole in the blood vessel
The permanent clot stops the leakage of blood and allows time for the injury to heal and then the blood clot is absorbed by the body.

Blood Types:
Recall that the four blood types are: A, B, AB, O.
The Rhesus Factor: The Rhesus factor is another inherited factor
discovered by studying the blood of rhesus monkeys. The rhesus factor is an antigen on erythrocytes that produce an antibody reaction. This is not as severe as the antibody reaction to blood type markers. The rhesus factor is present in approximately 85% of the population deeming them Rh-positive. The remaining 15% do not have this factor and are considered Rh-negative. Rh-negative people can donate their blood to Rh-positive people, but they cannot receive Rh-positive blood.
