Study Notes
Circulatory System Overview
- Carries oxygen-rich blood through arteries to body tissues.
- Responsible for transporting nutrients to the body's cells, ensuring proper function.
Waste Removal
- Veins are responsible for carrying waste products away from the body's cells, completing the waste cycle.
Capillaries Function
- Capillaries are tiny blood vessels that facilitate the exchange of gases, nutrients, and waste between blood and tissues.
- They connect arteries and veins, forming a network that permeates tissues, allowing efficient diffusion.
Systems Interconnection
- The circulatory system is also referred to as the cardiovascular system, highlighting its role in connecting the heart and blood vessels.
- The lymphatic system, integral to immune function, is considered a part of the circulatory system, aiding in fluid balance and waste management.
Educational Framework
- Class 4 ICSE curriculum includes teachings on the respiratory system, connecting breathing with circulatory functions in overall health and oxygen distribution.
