ABOUT THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM


The circulatory system is the body transport system. It is made of a group of organs that transport blood throughout body. The heart pumps the blood and the arteries and the veins transport it. Oxygen-rich blood leaves the left side of the heart and then enters the biggest artery, called the aorta. The aorta branches go to the smaller arteries, which then branch into smaller vessels that travel to whole of our body. When blood enter the smaller blood which is vessels, which are called capillaries and are found in body tissue it gives nutrients and oxygen to the cells and takes in carbon dioxide, water and, waste. The blood, which no longer contains oxygen and nutrients, then goes back to the heart through veins
