    Study Notes

    Cardiovascular System

    • The heart is divided into 4 chambers.
    • The right ventricle pumps blood into the pulmonary artery, transporting oxygen-poor blood to the lungs.
    • The left ventricle pumps oxygen-rich blood to the body.
    • The septum is the muscular wall that separates the left and right sides of the heart.

    Heart Valves

    • The tricuspid valve is a flap that lies between the right atrium and the right ventricle, preventing back-flow of blood.
    • The mitral valve is located between the left atrium and the left ventricle, preventing back-flow of blood.

    Blood Vessels

    • Arteries carry blood away from the heart throughout the body.
    • Veins carry blood towards the heart.
    • Capillaries are responsible for the exchange of materials such as gases, nutrients, etc. between the blood and body.

    Respiratory System

    • Alveoli are tiny sacks in the lungs surrounded by capillaries where oxygen enters the bloodstream, and carbon dioxide exits.
    • The trachea (windpipe) is kept open by rings of cartilage.
    • The diaphragm is a sheet of muscle under the lungs that regulates the pressure inside the chest.
    • The bronchial tubes split off from the trachea.
    • The pharynx connects the nasal cavity and the oral cavity.

    Respiration

    • Respiration occurs in all cells.
    • The respiratory system is responsible for moving oxygen throughout the body.

    Joints and Ligaments

    • Joints are places where two bones come close together and are connected by ligaments.
    • Ligaments connect bone to bone.
