The Mammalian Circulatory System
Recall:
What are the 3 cycles of the mammalian circulatory
system? What are their functions?
What are the three main vessel types in the
mammalian circulatory system? What are their
functions?
What are the main components of blood? What are
their functions?

Directional Blood Flow
The heart itself is divided into 4 chambers and 2 sides separated by a septum.
Blood only flows in one direction in the circulatory system.
Blood returns to the heart through veins and exits the heart through arteries.
Veins bring blood to the atria. Blood then flows to the ventricles. The blood then exits the heart through arteries.
To keep blood flowing in one direction in the heart, there are valves that prevent backflow of the blood when the close. These valves only open in one direction.

Control of Heartbeat
A heartbeat is divided into periods of relaxations
(diastole) and contractions (systole).
During diastole, the heart muscles are relaxed.
Blood flows into the atriums through the veins.
The heart has two nodes which are responsible for
controlling contraction of the chambers which
results in a heartbeat.

Control of Heartbeat
The sinoatrial node (the pacemaker of the heart)
then sends out a signal that contracts the atriums
(atrial systole). This causes blood to flow past the
atrioventricular valves into the ventricles.
The atrioventricular node then sends out a signal
that contracts the ventricles (ventricular systole). This
causes the atrioventricular valves to close, and the
semilunar valves open.
The “lub-dub” sound of a heart beat is the sound of
first the atrioventricular valves closing and then the
semi-lunar valves closing.

Blood Pressure
Upon contraction of the ventricles (systole), blood
rushes out into the arteries. This produces high
pressure in the arteries.
When the heart muscles relax and blood is returning
to the heart, there is lower pressure in the arteries.
When blood pressure readings are given as two
numbers, they represent the pressure at systole and
at diastole.
E.g. 120
80mm Hg

Electrocardiogram
When the SA node and the AV node send out
signals, they are electrical impulses that travel along
the walls of the atria and ventricles, causing them to
contract.
An electrocardiogram (ECG) can measure the
change in voltage for these impulses which
produces an electrocardiograph which displays a
regular pattern for a heartbeat.
An irregular pattern indicates fibrillation, which is a
random contracting of muscles which can
sometimes be reset by a strong electrical current to
the heart.

Cardiac Output
Cardiac output is a measure of the volume of blood pumped from each ventricle per unit of time.
Cardiac output is affected by two factors: stroke volume and heart rate.
Cardiac output = stroke volume x heart rate
Stroke volume is the amount of blood pumped out of the heart in a heartbeat.
Heart rate is the number of beats per period of time.
Average stroke volume is around 70 mL and average resting heart rate is around 70 beats per minute. What is the cardiac output?
If an average person has 5L of blood, how long would it take to pump their total blood volume?

Heart Rate and Fitness
Maximum heart rate is the highest heart rate that
can be attained during high physical activity. This
rate is reduced with age.
However, maximum heart rate does not seem to
correlate with fitness. The time to return to a resting
heart rate seems to be a better indicator of physical
fitness.
A low resting heart rate is also associated with
general physical fitness as a lower number of beats
is needed to delivery blood to the body. This
indicate efficiency per pump.

Stroke Volume and Fitness
There are two factors that affect stroke volume:
1. How easily the heart fills with blood.
i. This is affected by distensibility (stretchiness) of the
ventricles.
2. How easily the heart empties the blood.
i. This is affected by the strength of ventricular
contractions.
Regular cardiovascular exercise can increase stroke
volume by enlarging and strengthening the
chambers. Cardiovascular exercise can also increase
distensibility of the ventricles.

Atherosclerosis
Build-up of fatty material forms a plaque through a
chain of reactions that blocks blood flow in the
artery.
Medication, an angioplasty or a coronary bypass
may be necessary to treat the problems of high
blood pressure and blood clots that are associated
with arteriosclerosis.
