Cardiovascular system (blood pressure, hypertension) Pharmacy Universe
The circulatory system, also called the cardiovascular system or the vascular system, is an organ system that permits blood to circulate and transport nutrients (such as amino acids and electrolytes), oxygen, carbon dioxide, hormones, and blood cells to and from the cells in the body to provide nourishment and help in fighting diseases, stabilize temperature and pH, and maintain homeostasis.
The circulatory system includes the lymphatic system, which circulates lymph.[1] The passage of lymph for example takes much longer than that of blood.[2] Blood is a fluid consisting of plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets that is circulated by the heart through the vertebrate vascular system, carrying oxygen and nutrients to and waste materials away from all body tissues. Lymph is essentially recycled excess blood plasma after it has been filtered from the interstitial fluid (between cells) and returned to the lymphatic system. The cardiovascular (from Latin words meaning "heart" and "vessel") system comprises the blood, heart, and blood vessels.[3] The lymph, lymph nodes, and lymph vessels form the lymphatic system, which returns filtered blood plasma from the interstitial fluid (between cells) as lymph.
This presentation provides a clear understanding of the physiology of the circulatory system. It focus lies on the division and component of the circulatory system, the three major function of the circulatory system, blood composition, structure of the heart, blood circulation; pulmonary and systemic circuit, valves of the heart, the pathway of blood flow through the heart, the cardiac cycle, pressure changes during the cardiac cycle; systole and diastole, cardiac output, heart sounds among others.

Cardivascular system
Cardiovascular system include Heart and Blood vessels
Heart:
Pumps the blood
Blood Vessels:
Carries the blood to all parts of the body.
Location
Thorax between the lungs
Pointed apex directed toward left hip
From 2nd Rib to 6th Rib
About the size of your fist
The peripheral vascular system consists of the veins and arteries not in the chest or the abdomen that in the arm, hands, legs and feet.
The peripheral arteries supply the oxygenated blood to the body.
The peripheral veins lead deoxygenated blood from the capillaries in the back to the heart.

You're probably quite familiar with how the heart work as a pump to transport blood around your body by now. In AS level, you will take this understanding to the next level - understanding the intricate system and the processes that goes on every time you draw a breathe.
