- 2. Objectives • At the completion of this unit, learners will be able to: 1. Define blood and list its functions 2. Describe the composition, sites of production and functions of cellular parts of blood and plasma 3. Briefly explain the ABO blood groups & Rh factor. 4. Explain the structure and function of: Arteries Veins & Capillaries
- 3. Conti….. 5. Describe the location, structure and functions of the heart and its great blood vessels. 6. Discuss the blood flow through the heart 7. Describe the structure and functional features of the conducting system of the heart. 8. Describe the principle events of a cardiac cycle. 9. Describe the following types of blood circulation: Pulmonary circulation Systemic circulation (coronary & hepatic portal circulation).
- 4. The circulatory system carries blood and dissolved substances to and from different places in the body. The Heart has the job of pumping these things around the body. The Heart pumps blood and substances around the body in tubes called blood vessels. The Heart and blood vessels together make up the Circulatory System. What is the circulatory system?
- 5. lungs head & arms liver digestive system kidneys legs pulmonary artery aorta pulmonary vein main vein Left Right How does this system work? Circulatory System
- 6. Lungs Body cells Our circulatory system is a double circulatory system. This means it has two parts parts. the right side of the system deals with deoxygenated blood. the left side of the system deals with oxygenated blood.
- 7. The Heart These are arteries. They carry blood away from the heart. This is a vein. It brings blood from the body, except the lungs. Coronary arteries, the hearts own blood supply The heart has four chambers 2 atria 2 ventricles now lets look inside the heart
- 8. The Heart Left Ventricle Left Atrium Right Atrium Right Ventricle valve Vein from Lungs Artery to Head and Body Artery to Lungs Vein from Head and Body valve
- 9. How does the Heart work? blood from the body blood from the lungs The heart beat begins when the heart muscles relax and blood flows into the atria. STEP ONE
- 10. The atria then contract and the valves open to allow blood into the ventricles. How does the Heart work? STEP TWO
- 11. How does the Heart work? The valves close to stop blood flowing backwards. The ventricles contract forcing the blood to leave the heart. At the same time, the atria are relaxing and once again filling with blood. The cycle then repeats itself. STEP THREE
- 12. blood from the heart gets around the body through blood vessels There are 3 types of blood vessels a. ARTERY b. VEIN c. CAPILLARY
- 13. The ARTERY thick muscle and elastic fibres Arteries carry blood away from the heart. the elastic fibres allow the artery to stretch under pressure the thick muscle can contract to push the blood along.
- 14. The VEIN Veins carry 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.
- 15. The CAPILLARY Capillaries link Arteries with Veins 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 the body can only occur through capillaries.
- 16. artery vein capillaries body cell The CAPILLARY A collection of capillaries is known as a capillary bed capillary bed.
- 17. what’s in red blood cells white blood cells platelets plasma carbon dioxide digested food waste (urea) hormones oxygen
- 18. The Blood plasma red blood cell white blood cell platelets
- 19. Red Blood Cells contain haemoglobin, a molecule specially designed to hold oxygen and carry it to cells that need it. can change shape to an amazing extent, without breaking, as it squeezes single file through the capillaries. a biconcave disc that is round and flat without a nucleus
- 20. White Blood Cells there are many different types and all contain a big nucleus. the two main ones are the lymphocytes and the macrophages. some lymphocytes fight disease by making antibodies to destroy invaders by dissolving them. other lymphocytes make antitoxins to break down poisons. macrophages ‘eat’ and digest micro- organisms .
- 21. Platelets Platelets are bits of cell broken off larger cells. Platelets produce tiny fibrinogen fibres to form a net. This net traps other blood cells to form a blood clot.
- 22. Plasma A straw- coloured liquid that carries the cells and the platelets which help blood clot. • carbon dioxide • glucose • amino acids • proteins • minerals • vitamins • hormones • waste materials like urea. It also contains useful things like;
- 23. SUMMARY copy and complete the following; Arteries take blood ______ from the heart. The walls of an artery are made up of thick _________ walls and elastic fibres. Veins carry blood ________ the heart and also have valves. The _________ link arteries and veins, and have a one cell thick wall. Blood is made up of four main things ______, the liquid part of the blood; Red Blood Cells to carry ______; White Blood cells to protect the body from disease and _________ to help blood clot. away platelets towards capillaries plasma oxygen muscular
