2 Blood & circulation

3 Define these terms -Cardiovascular system -Heart -Atrium -Pacemaker -Ventricle -Valve -Artery -Capillary -Vein -Aorta -Coronary artery -Pulse -Diffusion -Blood pressure

4 Circulation  Your body resembles a large roadmap, There are routes or “arteries” that take you downtown to the “heart” of the city.

5 3 Major Parts of the Circulatory system Blood Vessels - routes blood travels Heart – pumps or pushes blood through body Blood – carries important “ *stuff ” through body * Stuff – includes oxygen, food, & waste

6 # 1 Blood Vessels : One Way Streets Blood Vessels resemble very long and skinny tunnels that are all through your body.

7 3 Types of Blood Vessels ArteriesCapillariesVeins

8 Arteries The walls of arteries are generally very thick. In fact, artery walls consist of three cell layers.

9 Capillaries In the capillaries, materials are exchanged between the blood and the body’s cells. Capillary walls are only one cell thick. One way that materials are exchanged between the blood and body cells is by diffusion.

10 Veins After blood moves through capillaries, it enters larger blood vessels called veins, which carry blood back to the heart. The walls of veins, like those of arteries, have three layers, with a muscle middle layer.

11 The Heart –4 chambers ( or compartments ) 2 upper chambers : Left Atrium Right Atrium 2 lower chambers : Left Ventricle Right Ventricle

13 Blood Flow

14 Lub If you listen to your heartbeat, it makes a lub dub sound. The lub is when blood is pushed out of the heart into the body and the dub is the reloading of the heart with more blood ready to push it out to the body Dub

15 Heart Rate can be determined using a Stethoscope

16 Heart Facts Hold out your hand and make a fist. If you're a kid, your heart is about the same size as your fist, and if you're an adult, it's about the same size as two fists. Your heart beats about 100,000 times in one day and about 35 million times in a year. During an average lifetime, the human heart will beat more than 2.5 billion times. Give a tennis ball a good, hard squeeze. You're using about the same amount of force your heart uses to pump blood out to the body. Even at rest, the muscles of the heart work hard--twice as hard as the leg muscles of a person sprinting.

17 Heart Beat Lab Purpose: How does physical activity affect your pulse rate? Hypothesis: Materials: stethoscope, stop watch What to do: First find your pulse in your wrist. Write down what you feel. Now, with your partner use the stethoscope and listen to his/her heartbeat. Count the number of beats in one minute. Record this number. Next, walk in place for one minute and then listen to your partner’s heart beats and count them for one minute. Finally, do this again after running in place for one minute. After you have rested for another minute, record the number of beats in a minute. The last rest time is three more minutes. Record the number of beats again that occur in one minute. Now, record all this information in a data table. Observation: ActivityPulse Rate At rest (before you start) Walking -1 minute Running – 1 minute Resting for one minute (after running) Resting for an additional three minutes

18 Conclusion Questions 1.Create a graph of data table. 2.What happened to your pulse rate when your physical activity stopped? 3.What can you infer about the heartbeat when your pulse rate increased? 4.What conclusion can you draw about the relationship between physical activity and your pulse rate? 5.Explain how you could improve the accuracy of your pulse/heartrate measurement.

19 Your blood is made of Plasma Red Blood Cells White Blood Cells Platelets

20 YOUR BLOOD

21 Plasma –Liquid part of blood –Water makes up 90% Red Blood Cells –They carry oxygen to all parts of the body –hemoglobin

22 White Blood Cells –Fight and kill germs that may enter your bloodstream

23 Platelets –Pieces of cells that form “scabs” when you cut yourself –Helps stop the bleeding –fibrin

24 Blood Types There are 4 main Blood Types : Type A, Type B, Type AB, and Type O Blood types are determined by proteins known as marker molecules that are on the red blood cells.

25 Rh Factor All blood types are either positive or negative. If your blood type is Rh positive, you have the Rh marker, and if your blood type is Rh negative, you lack the marker on your cells.
