  1. 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  2. Essential questions • What are the structures of blood? • What are the structures of the circulatory system? 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  3. Structures of the circulatory system • Blood • Heart • Arteries • Veins • Capillaries 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  4. Blood • Hemat- = blood • -ology = the study of • The average adult has 8 – 10 pints. 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  5. Blood One drop of blood contains: • 5 million RBCs • 250,000-500,000 platelets • 7,500 WBCs Red blood cells live 120 days. Make new blood cells 2 million per second! 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  6. Plasma Erythrocytes Leukocytes Thrombocytes Structures of the blood 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  7. Plasma • Straw-colored liquid • 55% of the blood’s volume • Water • Plasma proteins • Nutrients • Electrolytes • Hormones, vitamins, and enzymes • Waste products Plasma Cellular elements 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  8. Plasma proteins • Fibrinogen • Albumin • Globulin • Gamma globulin • Prothrombin Plasma Cellular elements 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  9. Biconcave disk Hemoglobin Transportation Oxygen Carbon dioxide Erythrocytes 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  10. Larger than erythrocytes Five types Leuk/o/cytes – white cells Leukocytes 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  11. Leukocytes • Agranulocytes • Lymphocytes • Monocytes 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  12. Granulocytes Neutrophils Eosinophils Basophils Leukocytes 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  13. Smallest of solid components of blood Synthesized in red marrow Not cells, composed of fragments of megakaryocytes Necessary for the initiation of the blood clotting process Thrombocytes 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  14. Life span of blood cells... 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  15. Inherited from parents Determined by presence or absence of an antigen on the surface of the red blood cell Blood types What are the types of blood? 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  16. In 1901, the Austrian immunologist Karl Landsteiner discovered that blood may be grouped into four main types. Based on the reaction that resulted when blood from different individuals were mixed. Check your knowledge of medical history... 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  17. Blood types • Someone with type A antigen has B antibodies • Someone with type B antigen has A antibodies • Someone with type AB antigen has no antibodies • Someone with type O antigen has A and B antibodies 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  18. Rhesus (Rh) factor is an inherited trait that refers to a specific protein found on the surface of red blood cells (antigen). Blood used in transfusions must match donors for Rh status as well as for ABO blood type. Although Rh factor doesn't affect the patient’s health, it can affect pregnancy. Rh factor 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  19. In 1940, the Rh factor was discovered as a result of studying Rhesus monkeys. When blood from monkeys was injected into rabbits and guinea pigs, it clotted. Rh factor 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  20. If the blood has the protein, the patient is Rh positive. If the blood lacks the protein, the patient is Rh negative. Rh factor Did you know??? 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  21. Structures of the circulatory system • Heart Did you know your heart is the size of your fist? 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  22. Heart Can you identify the structures of the heart? The heart is a double pump. 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  23. Heart Check your knowledge... Aorta Superior vena cava Pulmonary artery Aortic semilunar valve Pulmonary vein Right atrium Left atrium Tricuspidvalve Bicuspid (mitral) valve Inferior vena cava Pulmonary semilunar valve Right ventricle Left ventricle Septum Apex 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  24. Layers of the heart Left atrium Right atrium Pericardium Myocardium Endocardium Right ventricle Left ventricle 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  25. Conduction system of heart beats Refer to your textbook to identify the structures of the heart’s conduction system in the correct sequence for the heart to beat. 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  26. Structures of the circulatory system • ARTERIES 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  27. Vessels of the circulatory system • ARTERIES • Carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the capillaries • Elastic, muscular and thick-walled • Transport blood under very high pressure • Arteries > arterioles > capillaries 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  28. Vessels of the circulatory system Arteries • Arterial blood • Oxygen rich • Bright red, spurts 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  29. Structures of the circulatory system • VEINS 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  30. Vessels of the circulatory system • VEINS • Carry deoxygenated blood away from capillaries to the heart • Veins contain a muscular layer, but less elastic and muscular than arteries • Thin walled veins collapse easily when not filled with blood • Veins have values that permit flow of blood only in direction of the heart • Veins > Venules > Capillaries 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  31. Vessels of the circulatory system Veins • Venous blood • Oxygen poor • Dark crimson, oozes 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  32. Vessels of the circulatory system Identify the major veins. Identify the major arteries. 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  33. Structures of the circulatory system • Capillaries • The smallest blood vessels • Connect arterioles to venules 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  34. Structures of the circulatory system Trace the flow of blood through the body 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  35. Right side Superior vena cava Inferior vena cava Right atrium Tricuspid valve Right Ventricle Pulmonary valve Pulmonary artery Lungs CO2 and O2 exchange Left Side Pulmonary vein Left atrium Bicuspid valve Left ventricle Aortic valve Aorta Body Flow of blood through the body 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  36. Pulse sites • Alternating expansion and contraction of an artery as blood flows through it. Radial Temporal Brachial Ulnar Facial Carotid Popliteal Femoral tibialis dorsalis pedis 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system

  37. Common pulse sites Practice locating pulse sites... 2.01 Remember the structures of the circulatory system
