    The document discusses animal transport systems and the human circulatory system. It explains why multicellular organisms need transport systems and describes how oxygen is transported through the lungs into the blood. It then provides details on the structure and function of the heart and blood vessels that make up the human circulatory system to transport blood and materials around the body.

    TRANSPORT IN

    ANIMALS Brought to you by A. Christie


    WEEK 1
    Objectives
    1. Explain the need for transport systems in multicellular organisms
    2. Identify materials needed to be transported in animals
    3. Describe the structure and function of the circulatory systems in
    humans
    FUN FACT!
    YOU HAVE 96000 KM OF BLOOD
    VESSELS!
    That’s more than 59000 miles.
    THAT’S 408 TIMES BIGGER THAN
    JAMAICA!!!!!
    “We are linked by blood, and blood is
    memory without language.”

    Transport Systems
    Why do Unicellular Organisms NOT need a
    transport system?

    Unicellular organisms do
    not need a circulatory
    system because they are
    much simpler in structure
    than compared to
    multicellular organisms.
    Why do Multicellular Organisms need a
    Transport System?

    Most multicellular plants and


    animals have too small a surface
    area to volume ratio so diffusion
    would be too slow to provide the
    necessary molecules. Therefore,
    they require a system to transport
    nutrients and waste products
    around the organism.
    How does
    oxygen get into
    the blood?
    How is
    oxygenated/
    deoxygenated
    blood carried
    around body?

    The Circulatory System


    The Circulatory System

    The circulatory system actually


    consists of two separate systems:
    pulmonary circulation and systemic
    circulation.
    The Circulatory System

    Pulmonary circulation is the part of the


    circulatory system that carries blood
    between the heart and lungs.

    Systemic circulation is the part of the


    circulatory system that carries blood
    between the heart and body.
    The blood is transported around the body in
    blood vessels. The heart helps to push
    blood around in its transport system called a
    circulatory system. Most substances dissolve
    red blood cells are
    in the plasma, but
    specialized to transport
    oxygen.

    Materials transported in the Blood

    ● Products of ● Vitamins
    digestion ● Urea
    ● Carbon Dioxide ● Salts
    ● Hormones
    ● Heat
    The circulatory system
    is made up of 3 parts:

    1. Heart - a pump
    2. Blood Vessels - allows blood to get to
    where it needs to go
    3. Blood - fluid being transported
    The Heart
    The heart is divided into four chambers, or spaces: the left and right
    atria, and the left and right ventricles.
    ● An atrium (singular for atria) is one of the two small, thin-walled
    chambers on the top of the heart where the blood first
    enters.
    ● A ventricle is one of the two muscular V-shaped chambers that
    pump blood out of the heart.
    The walls of the heart are made up of a
    special type of muscle called the
    cardiac muscles, which contract and
    relaxed throughout life. The cardiac
    muscles never get tired, however, it may
    stop working if it is not supplied with
    glucose and oxygen to make energy.
    ● The right atrium receives oxygen-poor
    blood from the body.
    ● The right ventricle pumps oxygen-poor
    blood toward the lungs, where it receives
    oxygen.
    ➢ The left atrium receives oxygen-rich blood
    from the lungs.
    ➢ The left ventricle pumps oxygen-rich blood
    out of the heart to the rest of the body.
    Between the atrium and ventricles are
    valves which prevent the backflow of
    blood in the heart.
    Between the right atria and ventricle is
    the tricuspid valve.
    Between the left atria and ventricle is the
    bicuspid valve.
    The walls of the left ventricle are thicker
    than the ones in the right ventricle. This is
    because the left ventricle pumps blood to
    the whole body. So blood will travel a long
    distance, so it needs lots of muscles to
    pump the blood more strongly. The right
    ventricle pumps blood to the lungs which
    are closer to the heart.
    Blood Vessels associated with the Heart

    1. Pulmonary Vein
    2. Aorta
    3. Vena Cava
    4. Pulmonary Artery
