The circulator system of spiders * Spiders are arthropods and they have an open circulatory system. * The open circulatory system is a system in which the organs are directly bathed with nutrients and oxygen. The blood flow is not restricted as much as a closed circulatory system. * The spider’s heart is a simple heart‚ a tube surrounded by muscle with a one-way valve at each end. * It is located in the abdomen a short distance within the middle line of the dorsal body-wall‚ and

closed circulatory system of some mollusks and all higher invertebrates and the vertebrates is a much more efficient system. Here blood is pumped through a closed system of arteries‚ veins‚ and capillaries. Capillaries surround the organs‚ making sure that all cells have an equal opportunity for nourishment and removal of their waste products. However‚ even closed circulatory systems differ as we move further up the evolutionary tree. One of the simplest types of closed circulatory systems is found

Circulatory system is an organ system where nutrients pass through. Cardiovascular and lymphatic systems make up the complete circulatory system. Arteries‚ veins‚ and the heart are the main organs in the circulatory system. Examples of nutrients that are passed through are electrolytes‚ amino acids and lymph. Also other substances passed through the specific organ system are gases‚ hormones and blood cells to and from cells. The reason the substances are passed through the circulatory system is to

The Circulatory System The Circulatory System is designed to deliver oxygen and nutrients to all parts of the body and pick up waste materials and toxins for elimination. This system is made up of the heart‚ the veins‚ the arteries‚ and the capillaries. Circulation is achieved by a continuous one-way movement of blood throughout the body. The network of blood vessels that flow through the body is so extensive that blood flows within close proximity to almost every cell. Heart The heart

4 CIRCULATORY SYSTEM The circulatory system contains several very different components‚ including the heart‚ a hollow muscular pump that stands at the operational center of the system that pumps liquid blood throughout the body through three types of flexible tubes‚ the blood vessels (Fig. 4.1). The arteries channel blood from the heart to all parts of the body needing service. Once there‚ the blood passes through narrow arteries and enters the capillaries‚ which are the narrowest blood vessels

When we exercise circulatory system‚ respiratory system and muscles are affected. Short term effects are immediate and long term refers to our adaptation to exercise. After an intense exercise we are still breathing heavily‚ that is due to our internal respiration taking in more oxygen or cellular respiration (where the cells converts the food into energy or releases the molecules of Carbon‚ Hydrogen‚ Oxygen and Nitrogen which make up our food and are stored to higher cells known as ATP or Adenosine

The Blood Circulatory System The Circulatory system is a system in the bodies of all organisms that moves the nutrients that are needed as well as gases and wastes to and from cells and helps fight unwanted bacteria and other diseases. It also helps alleviate the body temperature to maintain homeostasis‚ which is the property of either an open system or a closed system in a living organism. It brings the body’s cells what they need in order to survive – oxygen and nutrients. The center of the circulatory

The Respiratory‚ Circulatory‚ Skeletal‚ Nervous‚ Digestive and Endocrine are the body systems. The Circulatory system has a disease that is very common.Which is called Peripheral Artery Disease. Peripheral Artery Disease or P.A.D. is something that causes plaque buildup in the arteries that carries blood to the head‚ organs‚ and limbs. P.A.D. affects the body from blocking the blood flow or slowing it down. It is more known in people older than 50. The disease is caused by a condition known as
