💓 The Human Circulatory System
This paragraph introduces the circulatory system, also known as the cardiovascular system, which is responsible for circulating blood throughout the body. It explains the system's role in transporting oxygen and nutrients to body cells and carrying waste products back to the heart and lungs. The main components of the circulatory system are the heart, blood, and blood vessels. The heart, a muscular organ about the size of a fist, pumps blood; blood is composed of plasma, red and white blood cells, and platelets; and blood vessels, including arteries, veins, and capillaries, transport blood. The paragraph also outlines three types of circulation: pulmonary, which exchanges carbon dioxide for oxygen in the lungs; coronary, supplying blood to the heart; and systemic, distributing oxygenated blood to the rest of the body.
🫀 The Chambers and Valves of the Heart
This paragraph delves into the structure and function of the human heart, which has four chambers: two atria and two ventricles. The atria are the receiving chambers, with the right atrium receiving blood from the body and the left atrium receiving oxygenated blood from the lungs. The ventricles are the pumping chambers, with the right ventricle sending deoxygenated blood to the lungs and the left ventricle pumping oxygenated blood throughout the body. The right ventricle has a thinner wall due to the lower pressure required for pulmonary circulation, while the left ventricle has a thicker wall to generate the high pressure needed for systemic circulation. Valves between the atria and ventricles, such as the tricuspid and mitral valves, ensure unidirectional blood flow. Additionally, the septum separates the left and right chambers to prevent mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. The paragraph also describes the flow of oxygenated blood from the body to the right atrium, through the ventricles, and to the lungs, as well as the return of oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium and ventricle, eventually being pumped out through the aorta.

Highlights
There are around five liters of blood circulating inside the average adult human body.
The circulatory system, also known as the cardiovascular system, is responsible for blood circulation.
The circulatory system's main functions are to transport oxygen and nutrients to body cells and carry carbon dioxide back to the heart and lungs.
The major parts of the circulatory system include the heart, blood, and blood vessels.
The heart is a hollow muscular organ about the size of a fist, located in the center of the chest.
Blood circulates from the heart throughout the body and back to the heart approximately every 60 seconds.
Blood is composed of plasma, red and white blood cells, and platelets.
Plasma makes up about 55 percent of the total volume of blood and is a straw-colored fluid.
Blood vessels are tubular structures that transport blood and include arteries, veins, and capillaries.
Arteries carry oxygen-rich blood away from the heart towards the body's cells, tissues, and organs.
Veins carry oxygen-poor blood from the body back to the heart and are characterized by a darker red color.
Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels where gases and nutrients are exchanged.
There are three types of circulation: pulmonary, coronary, and systemic.
Pulmonary circulation carries oxygen-poor blood to the lungs for gas exchange.
Coronary circulation supplies blood to the heart muscle and removes it from the heart.
Systemic circulation carries oxygenated blood to all body cells and returns it to the heart.
The human heart has four chambers: two ventricles and two atria.
The right atrium receives blood from the body, while the left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the lungs.
The right ventricle pumps blood to the lungs, and the left ventricle pumps it to the entire body.
The right ventricle has a thin wall due to the low pressure required to circulate blood around the lungs.
The left ventricle has a thicker wall to generate the high pressure needed to circulate blood to the head and body.
Valves between the atria and ventricles prevent backflow and ensure unidirectional blood flow.
The septum separates the left and right chambers, preventing the mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood.
The flow of oxygenated blood from the body to the heart involves the superior and inferior vena cava.
Oxygenated blood from the lungs moves to the left atrium through the pulmonary vein.
The aorta is the main artery that transports oxygenated blood away from the heart to the rest of the body.

that transport blood throughout the body
the three types of blood vessels are
arteries
veins and capillaries
arteries
arteries carry oxygenated or oxygen-rich
blood away from the heart towards the
cells tissues and organs of the body
in your body oxygen-rich blood has a
bright red color
veins
veins carry the oxygenated or oxygen
poor blood from the rest of the body
back to the heart
in your body
oxygen poor blood has a darker red color
capillaries the smallest blood vessels
in the body connecting the smallest
arteries to the smallest veins
they are the actual site where gases and
nutrients are exchanged
there are three types of circulation
the first is the pulmonary circulation
pulmonary circulation is the movement of
blood
between the heart and the lungs
the main function of this circulation is
to carry the oxygenated or oxygen poor
blood to the lungs where it exchanges
carbon dioxide for oxygen
and carries oxygenated or oxygen-rich
blood back to the heart
the second circulation is coronary
circulation
coronary circulation is the movement of
blood throughout the tissues of the
heart
the main function is to supply blood to
the heart and remove blood from the
heart
the third circulation is systemic
circulation
systemic circulation is the movement of
blood from the heart to the rest of the
body excluding the lungs
the main function of this circulation is
to carry oxygenated blood to all cells

blood flow through the heart
the human heart
the human heart has four chambers which
are the two ventricles and two atria
atria is the plural form of
atrium the right and left atriums which
are the upper chambers
are the receiving chambers of the heart
the right atrium accepts blood from the
body
while the left atrium accepts blood from
the lungs
on the other hand
the lower chambers are the right and
left ventricles
which are the pumping chambers that
force blood out of the heart
the right ventricle moves the blood to
the lungs
while the left ventricle moves the blood
into the body
the right ventricle has a thin wall
because it only needs to pump the blood
around the lungs at low pressure
well the left ventricle has a much
thicker wall
because
it generates the high pressure needed to
push blood to the head and body
there is a valve between each atrium and
ventricle to prevent the blood from
flowing backward
the valves which are the trichospeed
valve between the right atrium and right
ventricles
and mitral or bicuspid valve between the
left atrium and the left ventricles
are like one way doors
that keep the blood moving in only one
direction
[Music]
the left and right chambers are
separated by a wall of muscle called
septum
to prevent the mixing of the oxygenated
and the oxygenated blood
the flow of the oxygenated blood
the oxygenated blood comes from the
different parts of the body towards the
heart
this is what happened during the flow of
the oxygenated blood
the right atrium receives the oxygenated
blood from the other parts of the body
to the vena cava
the superior vena cava a large veins
returns blood to the heart from the head
neck and both upper limbs
while the inferior vena cava returns
blood to the heart from the lower parts
of the body
the oxygenated blood moves from the
right atrium to the right ventricle to
the trichosphere valve
the right ventricle pumps the blood to
the main pulmonary artery which connects
to the lungs
the flow of oxygenated blood
oxygenated blood comes from the lungs
towards the heart
the left atrium receives the oxygenated
blood from the lungs to the pulmonary
vein
the blood moves to the left ventricle
through the mitral valve
and to the artha to the arctic valve
the arta is the main artery that
transports blood away from the heart
