The document summarizes the structure and function of the circulatory system. It describes that blood is composed of plasma and blood cells. Plasma contains nutrients, waste, gases, and proteins. Red blood cells carry oxygen, white blood cells protect against disease, and platelets help with clotting. The heart has four chambers and uses systole and diastole to pump deoxygenated blood to the lungs and oxygenated blood to the body in double circulation. Blood vessels include arteries, veins, and capillaries to transport blood throughout the body.

The circulatory system:
It consisting of blood, blood vessels, and heart.
This supplies oxygen and other nutrients,
Transports hormones
Removes unnecessary waste products.
Heart and its Structure
The heart is a muscular organ about the size of a fist,
located in mediastinum just behind and slightly left of the breastbone (sternum).
The heart pumps blood through the blood vessels (arteries and veins called the cardiovascular system).
Structure of heart:
Layers of the heart (3)
Chambers of the heart (4)
Valves of the heart (4)
Blood vessels of the heart (5)
3 layers of the heart:
Epicardium/pericardium: outer protective layer of the heart. Visceral and parietal (pericardial fluid). Protection for the heart and big vessels and prevent collapse of heart,
Myocardium: muscular middle layer wall of the heart. Responsible for keeping the heart pumping blood around the body.
Endocardium: the inner layer of the heart. Regulate blood flow through the chambers of the heart and pass the electrical impulses
Chambers of the heart:
The atria: These are the 2 upper chambers, which receive blood. RA / LA
The ventricles: These are the 2 lower chambers, which discharge blood. RV/ LV
A wall of tissue called the septum separates the left and right atria called atrial septum and the left and right ventricle called ventricular septum.
Valves in the heart:
There are four valves
Two-atrio ventricular valves: The 2 types: bicuspid (mitral) - LA & LV, and tricuspid valves - RA & RV.
Two-semilunar valves: The aortic valves and the pulmonary valve.
Major blood vessels of the heart
There are 5 major blood vessels
Pulmonary artery
Pulmonary veins
Aorta[artery]
Inferior vena cava [IVC] veins
Superior vena cava [SVC] veins
Functions of heart:
Pumping oxygenated blood to the body parts.
Pumping nutrients and other vital substances
Receiving deoxygenated blood and carrying metabolic waste products from the body
Pumping deoxygenated blood to the lungs for oxygenation.
Maintaining blood pressure.
Conduction system
The electrical conduction system that controls the heart rate.
This system generates electrical impulses and conducts them throughout the muscle of the heart, stimulating the heart to contract and pump blood.
The electrical pulses determine the order in which the chambers contract & the heart rate
Conductive system consist of:
SA Node
AV Node
Bundle of his or His Bundles – bundle of branches
( right and left)
4. Purkinje fibres
Sinoatrial node (SA) : also known as the pace maker of the heart and Located in the upper wall of the right atrium
Made up of both muscle and nervous tissue
Here the electrical impulse begins
Atrioventricular (AV) node:
located between the atria and ventricles of the heart
The electrical impulse is carried fr

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
2. Composition of mammalian blood
I. Plasma (55% by volume)
contains:
1. water
2. soluble substances which include:
a. nutrients, e.g. glucose
b. wastes, e.g. carbon dioxide
c. plasma proteins, e.g. fibrinogen
d. hormones, e.g. insulin
e. antibodies for body defense,
f. dissolves gases, e.g. carbon dioxide
II. Cells (45% by volume) which include: red blood
cells, white blood cells and platelets
Blood cells produced in the bone marrow
3. The Transport Function of blood
• Blood transports the following:
Digested food: glucose, amino acids, vitamins
etc..
Excretory products from tissues
Nitrogenous wastes: urea uric acid (to the kidney)
Carbon dioxide ( to the lung)
Hormones: insulin
Heat
oxygen
5. What are the different types of blood cells?
• RBCs: contain red hemoglobin which enables RBCs to carry
oxygen and some carbon dioxide
• WBCs: lymphocytes & phagocytes, protect us from diseases
• Platelets: broken cell fragments, help in blood clotting
6. The Mechanism of Blood Clotting
1. Damaged tissue and platelets produce
thrombokinases (enzyme)
2. Thrombokinase converts the protein
prothrombin into thrombin
3. Thrombin is an enzyme which converts
fibrinogen into fibrin
4. Fibrin threads form a clot
Normally, undamaged blood vessels does
not clot. This is due to the absence of
anti-clotting substance called heparin
7. How does blood transport oxygen to the cells of the body?
1. Oxygen diffuses from the alveoli into the blood
2. Hemoglobin combines with oxygen to form oxyhemoglobin
3. Blood transports oxyhemoglobin to all tissues of the body
4. In the tissues oxyhemoglobin release oxygen
8. Lymphocytes & phagocytes, protect us from diseases
1. Lymphocytes: produce antibodies which acts by:
I. Destroying the bacteria
II. Causing bacteria agglutinate together, so it is easily to
ingested by phagocytes
III. Neutralizing the harmful substances (toxin)
IV. Attaching to virus, prevent them to bind to the body cell
2. Phagocytes: it engulfs the bacteria and then ingests it
by a process called phagocytosis
Phagocytosis: the process of engulfing and ingesting foreign
particles, such as bacteria, by the white blood cells
Immunization: dead bacteria injected to animal body to induce
antibodies production. Then these antibodies are injected to the
human body to provide immunity against pathogens
9. Organ transplant
• Organs can be transplanted from a donor to a recipient
• The recipient’s lymphocytes may respond by producing
antibodies to destroy the transplanted organ
How can tissue rejection be prevented?
• The tissues of both donor and recipient must be genetically close
(transplant between relatives)
• Reduce the risk of tissue rejection by using immunosuppressive drugs
11. The circulatory system
Circulatory system consists of:
• Arteries are blood vessels that carry blood
from the heart to other parts of the body
• Wall is thick muscular and elastic
• Elastic walls help to withstand the high pressure in the
artery
• Blood at high pressure
• Arterioles: arteries branch out into smaller
arteries called arterioles
• Capillaries: Tiny, thin-walled blood vessels.
Made of only a single layer of cells, partially
permeable allow diffusion of gases and
nutrients to take place
12. The circulatory system
• Veins: carry blood from the tissues
to the heart
blood pressure is much lower than in the
artery
Less thick
Less elastic
Contains semi-lunar valves
• Venules: leave an organ and join to
form bigger veins
13. Movement of blood in the vein
• Semi- lunar valves prevent the back flow
of blood
• The movement of blood along the vein is
assisted by the action of the skeletal muscles
on the vein
• Movement of muscles makes pressure on
the veins and move the blood quickly
15. Double circulation in Mammals
In Mammals, there is double circulation consists of:
Pulmonary circulation: circulation of blood
between heart and lung
Pulmonary artery carries blood (rich in CO2) to the
lung
Pulmonary vein carries blood rich in O2 to the heart
Systemic circulation: circulation of blood between
heart and rest of the body
Aorta carries the oxygenated blood from the left
side of the heart to all parts of the body
Venae Cava carries deoxygenated blood from all
parts of the body back to the right side of heart
19. The Heart
• The heart is surrounded by a ‘bag’ called
pericardium
Pericardium contains fluid to reduce friction
• The heart has four chambers:
Two upper chambers: left and right
auricles or atria (singular atrium)
Two lower chambers: left and right
ventricles
• The left side of the heart is separated from
the right side by muscular wall called
septum
20. The Heart
• The ventricles has thicker walls than
auricles
Because ventricles require high
pressure to push blood out of the heart
while auricles only push blood to
ventricles
• The right ventricle has thinner walls
than the left ventricle
It pumps blood to the lungs which are a
short distance from the heart
21. The Heart
What paths does blood take through the heart?
• Deoxygenated blood from various parts of the
body is returned to the right atrium by a large
vein called Vena Cava
• When the right atrium contract, the tricuspid
valve open and blood flows to the right
ventricles
• When the right ventricles contract, tricuspid
valve close and blood moves to the pulmonary
artery
• The pulmonary artery divides into two
pulmonary arteries, one to each lung
• Oxygenated blood from the lung enter the left
atrium by the pulmonary vein
22. The Heart
What paths does blood take through the heart?
• When the left atrium contract, bicuspid valve
open and blood flows to the left ventricle
• When the left ventricle contract, bicuspid
valve close and blood is blood is pushed at
high pressure to the aorta
• From the aorta, blood is distributed to all
parts of the body except lungs
• Two small coronary arteries emerge from the
aorta and supply the heart with oxygen and
nutrients
• Semi lunar valve prevent the back flow of
blood into the ventricles
23. The Heart
Cardiac cycle
• Diastole: the heart is relaxed
Blood comes into the atria through the pulmonary veins (left atrium) and vena cava (right
atrium).
From the left and right atria the blood flows directly into both ventricles because both the
bicuspid and tricuspid valves are open (80 % of blood).
• Auricular systole: the auricles contract.
Bicuspid and tricuspid valves are open
The blood from the left and right atria (approximately 20%) is pumped into
the ventricles.
• Ventricular systole: the ventricles contract
the bicuspid and tricuspid valves close to prevent any backflow
Semi-lunar valve open
The blood moves to the pulmonary artery and aorta
26. Blood pressure
Blood pressure is a force that blood
exerts on the walls of blood vessels
Blood pressure is measured by
sphygmomanometer
Blood pressure is measured by mm of
mercury
The blood pressure in the arteries is the
highest during ventricular systole
It decreases during ventricular diastole
Pressure is low in veins
Systolic pressure: 120-140 mm
Diastolic pressure: 75-90 mm
27. The main arteries of the body
• The arteries leaving the heart:
1. pulmonary artery: from right ventricle to lung
2. aorta: from left ventricle to all parts of body
• The following arteries arises from the aorta:
1. Arteries to the head, neck and arms
2. Arteries to the posterior parts of the body
a. Hepatic artery to the liver
b. Arteries to the stomach and intestine
c. Renal artery to the kidney
28. The main Veins of the body
• Blood returned to the heart by:
1. pulmonary vein: from lung to the left atrium
2. anterior or superior vena cava: from head,
neck and arms to the right atrium
3. Posterior or inferior vena cava: from the lower
parts to the right atrium
• The inferior vena cava collects blood from
various veins. Among these are:
1. Renal vein: bringing blood from kidney
2. Hepatic vein bringing blood from the liver
29. Tissue and Lymph
• Tissue fluid is a colorless liquid found in the tiny space
between cells.
How are substances transferred between capillaries and
tissue cells?
1. Dissolved food substances (nutrients) and oxygen
diffuse from the blood capillaries to the tissue fluid and
then into the cells
2. Waste products diffuse from the cells into the tissue
fluid and then through the blood capillary walls into the
blood
How tissue fluid is formed?
Blood plasma is forced out through the capillary walls
into the spaces between the cells as tissue fluid
Tissue fluid contains white blood cells (phagocytes)
and plasma with no red blood cells
30. Coronary heart disease
• The most common heart disease is
coronary heart disease
• During heart attack, blood flow to a
particular part of the heart may be
completely blocked.
• Due to this block, part of the heart
does not receive sufficient oxygen and
nutrients
• This region of the heart dies
31. Coronary heart disease
Causes of heart attack:
• Fatty acid (cholesterol) deposits on the
inner surface of the coronary artery. This is
called atherosclerosis
• This narrows the artery and increase the
blood pressure
• This affects the artery and develops rough
inner surface
• This increase the risk of blood clot called
thrombosis
• The supply of blood and oxygen to the
heart muscles may be completely cut off
• This leads to death of heart muscles cells
and heart attack occurs
32. Factors that increase the risk of coronary heart
disease
1. Diet rich in cholesterol
2. stress
3. smoking
Nicotine: increase blood pressure
Carbon monoxide: increase fatty deposits
4. hereditary factors
5. Increasing age
6. Sedentary life (not doing exercise)
7. Overweight (obesity)
8. Diabetes
9. High blood pressure
