4. The circulatory system We need to deliver various essential substances to our cells, and remove waste materials from our cells. We need to deliver various essential substances to our cells, and remove waste materials from our cells. The blood carries all of these substances from one place to another. The blood carries all of these substances from one place to another. Your blood carries food (from your digestive system) and oxygen (from your lungs) to your body’s cells. Your blood carries food (from your digestive system) and oxygen (from your lungs) to your body’s cells. It also carries waste materials away from the cells. It also carries waste materials away from the cells. As well as this, blood carries heat around the body. As well as this, blood carries heat around the body.

5. The circulatory system consist of the heart and the blood vessels. Arteries are blood vessels which carry blood away from the heart Veins are blood vessels which carry blood back to the heart. Capillaries are tiny blood vessels which connect arteries to veins. These are just some of the arteries and veins of the body.

6. Arteries take blood to all parts of the body. Arteries take blood to all parts of the body. They divide many times to form tiny capillaries. They divide many times to form tiny capillaries. These supply all the cells of the body with the food and oxygen they need. These supply all the cells of the body with the food and oxygen they need. Veins take blood containing carbon dioxide and waste materials away from the cells. Veins take blood containing carbon dioxide and waste materials away from the cells.

9. The Heart Your teacher will show you a model of the human heart The heart has four chambers, two on the left side and two on the right side. (Look carefully at the diagram – what do you notice!) The heart has four chambers, two on the left side and two on the right side. (Look carefully at the diagram – what do you notice!) The aorta is the main artery taking blood away from the heart. It branches into smaller arteries which go to all parts of the body. The aorta is the main artery taking blood away from the heart.

After delivering oxygen After delivering oxygen to the cells, the blood to the cells, the blood returns to the right side returns to the right side of the heart again. of the heart again.

11. Listen to your heart Your teacher will show you how to use the stethoscope. It is important to clean it with disinfectant before and after you use it. Place the end of the stethoscope against your skin, just to the left of the middle of your chest. Can you hear the two sounds the heart makes for each beat ?– this sound is sometimes called ‘Lub-DUB’.

12. Did you know? The heart beats about 100,000 times each day. The electrocardiograph (ECG) was invented in 1902 by Dutch physiologist Willem Einthoven. This test is still used to evaluate the heart's rate and rhythm. Your system of blood vessels - arteries, veins and capillaries - is over 60,000 miles long. That's long enough to go around the world more than twice! The ‘lub-DUB’ sound of the heart is caused when the heart valves (like tiny doors) close. Early Egyptians believed that the heart and other major organs had wills of their own and would move around inside the body.
