    Cardiopulmonary System

    Uploaded by

    Maxxdlc 16
    The circulatory system transports blood throughout the body, while the respiratory system supplies the blood with oxygen and removes carbon dioxide. The major organ of the respiratory system is the lungs, which oxygenate blood in the pulmonary circuit. The major organ of the circulatory system is the heart, which pumps oxygenated blood into the systemic circuit to deliver oxygen to tissues and remove wastes. Together, these systems maintain homeostasis by regulating the levels of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and other gases in the blood and body tissues.

    How do the
    CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
    and RESPIRATORY
    SYSTEM work together to
    maintain HOMEOSTASIS?
    Homeostasis

    • tendency of organisms to auto-


    regulate and maintain their
    internal environment in a stable
    state.
    • The stable condition is the
    condition of optimal functioning
    for the organism

    What is the major organ of the CIRCULATORY SYSTEM?
    The Cardiac Cycle
    The chambers of the heart alternately contract and relax
    in a rhythmic cycle.

    • During the period of contraction (systole), the


    heart pumps blood out through the arteries;
    during the period of relaxation (diastole), the
    heart fills with blood.
    • One complete sequence of filling and
    pumping blood is called a cardiac cycle, or
    heartbeat.
    Electrical Activity of the Heart
    • The heart's rhythm of contraction is controlled
    by the sinoatrial node (SA node), often called
    the pacemaker. This node is part of the
    heart's intrinsic conduction system, which is
    made up of specialized myocardial cells called
    nodal cells.
    • The heart will beat without input from the
    nervous system
    • continue to beat, even outside the body, as
    long as its cells are alive
    • Automaticity is due to the spontaneous
    electrical activity of the SA node. Electrical
    impulses generated from the SA node spread
    through the heart via a nodal tissue pathway
    that coordinates the events of the cardiac
    cycle.
    Blood Vessel Structure and Function
    Blood vessels form a tubular network throughout the body that allows blood to flow from the heart to every body cell and then back to the heart.

    •The three types of blood


    vessels are arteries,
    capillaries, and veins.
    •Each blood vessel
    consists of a layered wall
    surrounding a central
    blood-containing space,
    or lumen.
    Structure and Function of Arteries, Capillaries, and Veins
    The vessels of the pulmonary
    and systemic circuits carry blood
    to the tissues of the entire body.

    •In the pulmonary circuit, blood takes


    up oxygen in the lungs.
    •In the systemic circuit, oxygenated
    blood is distributed to body tissues.
    Capillary Function
    Capillaries make possible the exchange of molecules
    between blood and interstitial fluid. Sphincters open
    and close to regulate the flow of blood through
    capillary beds.
    The crucial exchange of
    substances required for
    cellular metabolism takes
    place through the capillary
    endothelium, which allows
    cells of the various tissues to
    take up oxygen and
    nutrients and to expel
    carbon dioxide and wastes.
    Blood Pressure
    Heart contractions generate blood pressure, the fluid
    pressure that blood exerts against vessel walls.
    •Blood pressure is
    expressed in mm Hg.

    •Normal blood pressure in


    adults is 120 mm Hg/80
    mm Hg (systolic/diastolic),
    when measured at the
    brachial artery in the arm,
    the standard point of
    reference.

    •Blood pressure is highest
