The Circulatory System http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=fvwp&v=r_RQMdqccqc&NR=1
Circulatory System and Blood • Circulatory System relates to: • Skeletal system Where blood cells are produced • Respiratory System carries oxygen/carbon dioxide to the body • Lymphatic System lymph and foreign invader defenders travel through the blood system • Functions of blood • Fluid connective tissue • Transport dissolved gasses, nutrients, hormones, and metabolic wastes • Regulates pH and ion composition • Restricts fluid loss at injury sites • Defense against toxins/pathogens
The composition of whole blood • 46-63% Plasma • 37-54% Formed Elements • 3 components: • Red Blood Cells, RBC’s or erythrocytes • Most abundant • Transport oxygen/carbon dioxide • White Blood Cells, WBC’c or leukocytes • Involved in body’s defense mechanisms • Platelets • Small packets of cytoplasm that contain enzymes and other substances for clotting • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-sKZWqsUpw
Plasma • Plasma composition: • 92% water • 7% Plasma Proteins • 1% other solutes
Plasma: Plasma Proteins • 3 Primary types: • Albumins • Regulate osmotic pressure of plasma • Transport fatty acids, hormones • Globulins • Antibodies that attack foreign proteins and pathogens • Fibrinogens • Blood clotting if platelets don’t clot properly
Formed Elements • 99.9% Erythrocytes • Contain the red pigment hemoglobin • Single blood drop = 260 million RBC’s • Structure: • Biconcave disc • Enables RBC’s to form smooth stacks that flow through narrow openings • Enables bending/flexing • During differentiation, RBC’s loose most organelles short lifespan (<120 days)
Red Blood Cells Elements • Hemoglobin • Bloods cells with attached oxygen bright red • binds and transports oxygen/carbon dioxide to tissues throughout the body • Anemia: condition where the Hemoglobin levels are low • Interferes with oxygen delivery • Symptoms: weak, lethargic, confused • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkC5Hf-AKwo&NR=1
Red Blood Cells Elements • Blood Doping: involves harvesting an athlete's own blood before a competition or finding a matching blood donor • blood is processed to create a concentration of red blood cells, then frozen until needed for transfusion back into the athlete shortly before the event • the extra red blood cells will deliver more oxygen and other essential elements to the athlete's muscle tissues, which means more stamina and endurance
Blood Types • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4qkwW-Fl3E • A classification determined by presence/absence of antigens • Substances that trigger an immune response • Attached to cell membranes of RBC’s • RBC’s of individual will have either • A antigens • B antigens • Both A and B antigens • Neither A or B antigens
Blood Types • Type A • Antigen A • 40% • Type B • Antigen B • 10% • Type AB • Antigens A and B • 4% • Type O • Neither antigens • 46%
Blood Types • Rh factor • Surface antigen • Rh+ • Presences of Rh antigen • 85% • Rh- • Absence of Rh antigen • 15% • Example: • O- No antigens present • AB+ A, B, and Rh antigens present
Day 2 • Blood typing lab
Blood Types • Why do we need to be aware of blood types? • Agglutinins: cells in plasma that attack antigens on “misplaced” RBC’s • When agglutinins attack the foreign RBC’s clump together = agglutination • If you are Type A your plasma carries anti-B (antibodies B) which will attack Type B surface antigens • Universal Recipient: AB+ • Universal Donor: O-
Inheritance of Blood Types • Inherited through genes on chromosome 9 • Determined by the inheritance of 1 of 3 alleles(A, B, or O) from each parent. The possible outcomes are shown below: • Both A and B alleles are dominant over O. The A and B alleles are codominant. Therefore, if an A is inherited from one parent and a B from the other, the phenotype will be AB.
White Blood Cells • Compared to RBC’s • Have a nuclei, organelles • Lack hemoglobin • Function • Defend against invasion by pathogens • Remove toxins, wastes, abnormal/damaged cells
Movement of White Blood Cells • Use bloodstream to travel from organ to organ • Detect chemical signals within the blood to seek out the damaged area • Can move out of bloodstream • Some can do phagocytosis: the ability to engulf large particles • Types of Leukocytes • Neutrophils • Eosinophils • Basophils • Monocytes • Lymphocytes
Types of White Blood Cells • Neutrophils • 50-76% of WBC’s • The first WBC to arrive at injury site • Specialize in attacking and engulfing bacteria that has been marked • Eosinophils • Red in color • 2-4% of WBC’s • Phagocytize marked bacteria, parasites, or cellular debris • Basophils • <1% of WBC’s • Trigger dilation of blood vessels to avoid clotting
Types of White Blood Cells • Monocytes • 2-8% of WBC’s • Aggressive phagocytes • Engulfing items larger than themselves • Release chemicals to attract other neutrophils and monocytes • Lymphocytes • 20-30% of WBC’s • 3 Classes: • T Cells • B Cells • NK Cells
Classes of Lymphocytes • Lymphocytes • T Cells • Cell mediated immunity • Against invading foreign cells and tissue • B Cells • Humoral immunity • Producing of antibodies • NK Cells • “Natural Killer” cells • Immune surveillance • Detection of destruction • Important in preventing cancer
White Blood Cell Disorders • Leukopenia: abnormally low #’s of leukocytes • Leukocytosis: abnormally high #’s of leukocytes • Leukemia: type of Leukocytosis, many kinds • Leukocytes fight off normal, healthy cells within the body
Platelets • Platelets: thrombocytes • Thrombocytopenia: abnormally low platelet count • Cause: excessive bleeding • Thrombocytosis: exceedingly high platelet count • Infection, inflammation, cancer • Functions • Release enzymes at appropriate times to initiate clotting control • Formation of temporary patch in walls of damaged vessels
Cardiovascular Circuit • Blood pumped through the body is involved in 2 main circuits: • Pulmonary • Carries blood to and from the gas exchange surfaces of the lungs • Systemic • Transports blood to and from the rest of the body • Both circuits start and end at the heart • Circuits made up of: • Arteries • Veins • Capillaries
Anatomy of the Heart • Surrounded by the pericardial cavity • Visceral Pericardium: lining covering the surface of the heart • Parietal Pericardium: lining on the inside surface of the pericardial cavity • Pericardial fluid: lubricant found between both pericardium layers to reduce the friction
Superficial Anatomy of the Heart • Anterior View • Aorta • Ascending • Descending • Arch • Right Atrium • Right Ventricle • Left Atrium • Left Ventricle • Pulmonary Trunk • Superior Vena Cava • Left Pulmonary Artery
Superficial Anatomy of the Heart • Anterior View • Aorta • Arch • Right Atrium • Right Ventricle • Left Atrium • Left Ventricle • Pulmonary Trunk • Superior Vena Cava • Inferior Vena Cava • Left Pulmonary Artery • Right Pulmonary Artery
Other Anatomical Structures • Interatrial Septum separates the right and left atria • Interventricular Septum separates the right and left ventricles • Atrioventricular Valves—(2 of them) valves that open between atria and ventricles • 1 on right side: “Right AV valve” or tricuspid (3 flaps) • 1 on left side: “Left AV valve” or bicuspid (2 flaps) • Pulmonary Semilunar valve valves that open between the right ventricle and the pulmonary trunk • Aortic Semilunar valve valves that open between the left ventricle and the aorta
Other Anatomical Structures Left Atrioventricular Valve or Bicuspid Pulmonary Semilunar Valve Aortic Semilunar Valve Right Atrioventricular Valve or Tricuspid Chordae Tendinae: connective tissue that pulls cusps open Papillary Muscles: attach to Chordae Tendinae and constrict to pull cusps open
Blood Pathway • Blood from body Inferior/Superior Vena Cava's Right Atrium Right Atrioventricular Valve/Tricuspid Right Ventricle Pulmonary Semilunar Valve Pulmonary Artery • Lungs (BECOMES OXYGENATED) • Pulmonary Veins Left Atrium Left Atrioventricular valve/bicuspid Left Ventricle Aortic Semilunar Valve Ascending Aorta Aortic Arch Descending Aorta the Body
Blood Supply to the Heart • The heart, as a muscle, needs a blood supply too = coronary circulation • Coronary Arteries: (left and right) originate from the ascending aorta • Supplies blood to the heart tissue • Cardiac Veins: takes blood from the heart tissue and dumps it directly into the right atrium • Removes deoxygenated blood from the heart tissue
