What is one function of the circulatory system?

• Regulating body temperature.
• Producing hormones for digestion.
• Transporting oxygen and nutrients to cells.
• Filtering waste from the blood.

What is transported by the circulatory system?

• Nerve signals
• Muscle contractions
• Oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, hormones, and waste products.
• Blood cells only

What are all the organs of the circulatory system?

• Heart, blood vessels (arteries, veins, capillaries), blood.
• Brain, spinal cord, nerves
• Stomach, intestines, pancreas
• Lungs, kidneys, liver

What happens once blood is in lungs?

• Blood becomes thicker and clots in the lungs.
• Blood is filtered and sent back to the heart.
• Blood gets oxygenated and releases carbon dioxide in the lungs. Gases are exchanged.

• Blood is stored in the lungs for later use.

What is the bloods job in the cells?

• The blood's job is to store energy for the cells.
• The blood's job is to produce hormones for the cells.
• The blood's job in the cells is to transport oxygen and nutrients while removing waste products.
• The blood's job is to provide structural support to the cells.

What is the pulmonary circuit?

• The pulmonary circuit is responsible for transporting blood between the heart and the lungs. (Gas exchange)

• The pulmonary circuit is a part of the digestive system.
• The pulmonary circuit refers to the flow of lymphatic fluid in the body.
• The pulmonary circuit is responsible for delivering oxygen-rich blood to the body.

What is the systemic circuit?

• The systemic circuit is involved in regulating body temperature.
• The systemic circuit transports carbon dioxide-rich blood to the lungs.
• The systemic circuit is responsible for delivering oxygen-rich blood to the body's tissues and organs.
• The systemic circuit is responsible for filtering waste from the blood.

What is transported by the circulatory system?

• Oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, hormones, and waste products.
• Blood pressure and heart rate
• Skin temperature and moisture levels
• Muscle contractions and reflexes

Arteries?

• carry oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the body's cells, tissues, and organs

• collect oxygen-poor blood and return it to your heart

• pump blood and oxygen around the body and deliver waste products (carbon dioxide) back to the lungs to be removed

Veins?

• collect oxygen-poor blood and return it to your heart

• pump blood and oxygen around the body and deliver waste products (carbon dioxide) back to the lungs to be removed

• transport food entering the mouth through the throat and into the stomach

• converting the food we eat into fuel for the body's cells
