Circulation

By Sam Regan-Edwards and George Rutt

Circulation is the process of blood being pumped

around the body. This allows oxygen and energy

(glucose) to travel to the muscles. An artery takes the oxygenated blood out

of the heart and out to the muscles.Capillaries are blood vessels that have thin walls. Walls thin enough to allow water and oxygen in and out. They are found all throughout the body. The capillaries in the lungs allow oxygen into the blood. When this blood reaches the heart, the heart pumps the oxygenated blood around the body to other capillaries, which let the oxygen out through the thin walls to the muscles.

CIRCULATION

Circulation describes the process of blood moving from the heart

(the pump), out to the brain, then limbs, back to the lungs and

heart.

What Is Circulation?

The Heart is one of the most important muscles in your body. It helps pump all the

blood around your body. The average amount of beats per minute is 72BPM.

What Does The Heart Do?

The capillary is the mini arteries that comes of the main artery,

that feeds the blood to the smaller places in your body.An Artery is a small tunnel

that allows blood, with oxygen in, to pass around your body from the heart.

A Vein is a small tunnel that allows blood, without

oxygen, to pass around your body to the heart.

What Is A Vein?

What Is An Artery?

What Is A Capillary?

Circulation:Circulation is where the blood goes around the body starting from the heart.It is sent out by the artery’s and brought back by the veins.

The heart is a muscle that acts as a pump to take all the blood around your body.It helps to keep you alive.

Circulation

The Circulatory system is the system when the heart sends heart round the body and back. It works like a circuit.

The Heart creates blood and sends it around the body, through the arteries and then its pumped back through the veins.

Arteries and veins are the tunnels of which the blood passes through on the way to and from the heart. Capillaries however are small blood vessels with walls so thin that nutrients can pass into them to energise the body. This is what they look like.

Tyler and Nathan Circulation

Circulation is the process in which blood transfers around the body. The heart pumps blood around the heart, the blood is carried around the body in blood vessels. Arteries are blood vessels coming from the heart and veins are blood vessels going to the heart. The artery and veins are strong and elastic tubes that blood vessels used to move around the body. The artery carries the oxygen into the blood and the veins gets rid of the waste/carbon dioxide.

CIRCULATION

BY Charlie Palmer and Leonid Marshall

The circulation system an organ system that passes different gases, nutrients, hormones and blood round the body with the use of veins and arteries.

Circulation is the process by which the heart pumps blood around the body. This is needed so that organs and muscles can work properly.

The circulation system was found on ancient Egyptian papyrus it had over 700 descriptions of the circulation system although most of it’s details were wrong it contained all the basics.

• Circulation is the system in which blood is transported from the heart around the body and to all of the major organs e.g. The Brain.

• The heart is one of the body's most vital organs and its job is to pump blood around the body, it is a main part of the circulatory system.

• A capillary is a minute blood vessel in the tissue of the anatomy.

• An artery is a tube that transports blood away from the heart and to the organs.

• A vein is another tube that this time transports blood from the organs and back to the heart.

• Veins and arteries can be told apart because the artery takes blood to the organs and the vein takes blood from the organs to the heart, this process is repetitive.

CirculationCirculation is the travelling of blood through the body; blood is pumped through the heart and makes its way to the lungs, to collect oxygen, then travels through an artery and into a capillary and transfers its oxygen to the muscles nearby, and is de-oxygenated. It then travels through a vein to the heart, which then is transferred to the lungs again to be re-oxygenated and then the whole process starts again.The heart is a muscle that pumps blood around the body to help the process called circulation. An artery is type of blood vessel that transfers blood from the heart to the capillaries .A capillary is a smaller blood vessel that allows the transfer of oxygen to surrounding muscles (including the heart).A vein transfers de-oxygenated blood from a capillary back to the heart to be pumped to a lung to be re-oxygenated. Arteries have a brighter red blood in them, capillaries are small and thin and veins have a darker red blood, not blue.Anton Farmar and Archie Elliot.

What is….

CIRCULATION• Circulation is a process in the body where the heart

pumps blood around your body into the muscles in your body. We need this because oxygen is in the blood and also glucose and the muscles use that in respiration to make usable energy.

• Capillaries are the smallest of the body’s blood cells and they make it possible to transfer oxygen, carbon dioxide, glucose and water in the blood.

• Arteries are blood vessels that send blood away from the heart it is oxenygised.

• Veins carry blood to the heart this is deoxenygised.• Usually you can tell on an x-ray as they colour one red

one blue but you cant tell on a normal look.

Circulation!Circulation is the process of passing nutrients concerning the organ system, these includes blood cells, hormones etc. this is important to stabilize pH levels, keep the right temperature and generally keep Homeostasis. The heart is a muscle in your body that is vital for pumping you blood around the body, collecting it again and then pumping it again. Kardia in Greek means heart, hence the phrase cardiac arrest. The more fat in your blood, the harder it is because it is like pumping syrup, this is called cholesterol.

CirculationHuman circulation system, we need this system to pump oxygen around our body, we need oxygen to get to all our major muscles. Our veins are blood vessels , they carry blood into the heart. Arteries are also blood vestals which carry the blood around, but away from the heart. The small blood vessels are called capillaries. They have very small walls, with small gaps so that molecules like water can get in and out of them.

Blood is pumped around the body, through the capillaries which take all the blood (oxygen and glucose) to all the vital muscles and organs. More accurately the right hand side receives the blood the left sends it out.

What is circulation?Circulation is the process of the heart pumping blood around

the body to the brain, major organs and limbs through arteries and veins.

What does the Heart Do?

The heart is an organ that is crucial to surviving. It beats so blood can be pumped around the body, out through arteries and back in by veins.

What is a Capillary?(what does it look like)?

A Capillary is the smallest blood vessel in the human body and is used to deliver nutrients and oxygen to all the tissues. They are microscopic cells

What is an Artery?An Artery is a part of the body circulation that brings blood

from the heart out to the rest of the body. It is in the form of a tube so blood can pass through more easily.
