Study Notes
Circulatory System Overview
- Responsible for distribution and pumping of blood throughout the body.
- Transports materials, nutrients, and provides immune defense.
Components of Blood
- Composed of two main parts: plasma (fluid component) and cellular elements.
- The most abundant cell type in blood: red blood cells (erythrocytes).
- White blood cells (leukocytes) protect against infections.
White Blood Cells Functions
- Respond to bacterial and fungal infections.
- Aid in allergic responses and help control parasitic infections.
- Essential for combating vital infections and chronic health issues.
Blood Clotting
- The process of coagulation stops bleeding, preventing excessive blood loss.
Heart Structure
- Composed of strong cardiac muscle tissue for efficient pumping.
- Features four chambers: two atria and two ventricles.
Blood Vessels
- Includes arteries (carry oxygen-rich blood away from the heart) and veins (transport oxygen-poor blood back to the heart).
- Capillaries connect arteries and veins, facilitating nutrient, gas, and waste exchange.
Circulation Loops
- Two types: systemic circulation (oxygenated blood to the tissues) and pulmonary circulation (blood refilled with oxygen in the lungs).
- Prevents backflow of blood through one-way valves.
Pulse and Heart Rate
- Direct measure of heart rate indicates how many times the heart beats in a minute.
Hemoglobin
- A donut-shaped protein (without a hole) containing iron that binds oxygen tightly.
- Composed of four subunits that facilitate oxygen binding and gas transport.
- Hemoglobin can exist in a loaded form (with oxygen) or unloaded (without oxygen).
