    The document discusses the human circulatory system and heart. It contains diagrams and descriptions of the heart anatomy, including the labeling of structures like the aorta, ventricles, and pulmonary veins. It explains the double circulation of blood through the heart and lungs, which is necessary to oxygenate blood and remove carbon dioxide. Blood and lymph are also summarized, outlining their roles in nutrient/waste transport and immune functions throughout the body.

    Answers of Blood Circulation
    1. Blood-helps in transport of O2,CO2,urea,hormones etc.
    WBC present in blood kills germs
    Lymph carries digested and absorbed fat from intestine,drains excess fluid from extra cellular space
    back into the blood.
    2. To maintain body temperature.The left and right side of human heart are useful to keep oxygenated
    and deoxygenated blood from mixing.This separation of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood
    ensures a highly efficient supply of oxygen to the body.
    Venous blood --heart--- lungs ---oxygenated blood to heart---to body.
    Thus blood travels twice through the heart in one complete cycle.
    3. Double circulation means the flow of blood twice through the heart,during each cycle of transport
    through the body.Systemic circulation and pulmonary circulation.
    The deoxygenated blood is brought to the right Atrium of the heart by inferior Vena cava and
    superior Vena cava.
    From here blood moves to right ventricle which pumps it to the lungs through Pulmonary artery.
    The oxygenated blood is brought to the left Atrium by pulmonary veins.
    From here blood moves to left ventricle which pumps it to all parts of the body through aorta.
    Double circulation is necessary because oxygenated blood from heart goes back to lungs for
    purifying.ie:for removing carbon dioxide from the blood.
    4. Left Atrium- receives oxygenated blood from Pulmonary vein.
    Right Atrium -receive deoxygenated blood from vena cava
    Left ventricle -pumpss oxygenated blood to all parts of the body.
    Right ventricle -pumps deoxygenated blood to lungs.
    5. Blood has many different functions, including: transporting oxygen and nutrients to the lungs and
    tissues. forming blood clots to prevent excess blood loss. carrying cells and antibodies that fight
    infection,regulates body temperature,transport of waste products,defence against infection.
    Functions of lymph are:-
    It supplies nutrition and oxygen to those parts of the body where blood cannot reach.
    It transports oxygen, hormones and nutrients to different parts of the body and removes metabolic
    waste from the cells.
    It transports antibodies and lymphocytes to the blood.
    Maintaining the composition of tissue fluid and the volume of blood.
    Absorption of fats from the small intestine through lymphatic vessels.
    Prevents invasion of microbes and foreign substances inside the lymph nodes.
    6. The blood consists of plasma and blood cells.
    7. Arteries are
    Thick walled
    Have no valves
    Carry oxygenated blood except pulmonary artery.
    Veins are thin walled
    Have valves
    Carry deoxygenated blood except pulmonary vein
    8. A typical heart has two upper and two lower chambers. The upper chambers, the right and left atria,
    receive incoming blood. The lower chambers, the more muscular right and left ventricles, pump
    blood out of the heart.
