Movement of MaterialsMovement of Materials
• Substances that need to get from one part of the body to another are carried by the blood.
• Wastes are also picked up and expelled through exhalation.
• Transports cells that attack disease-causing microorganisms.

The Heart’s StructureThe Heart’s Structure
• The heart has two sides: right and left.
• Each side is completely separated from each other by a wall of tissue.
• Each side has two compartments called chambers.
• There is an upper and lower chamber on each side.– The upper chambers are called atria (atrium -
singular).– The lower chambers are called ventricles.

The AtriumThe Atrium• The atria are
separated from the ventricles by valves.– Valves are flaps of
tissue that prevents the backflow of blood.
• The atria receive blood that comes into the heart.
• The atria are separated from the ventricles by valves.– Valves are flaps of
tissue that prevents the backflow of blood.
• The atria receive blood that comes into the heart.

• Located in the lower portion of the heart.
• Pumps blood out of the heart.

How The Heart WorksHow The Heart Works
• Two main phases.– Heart muscles relax and the atria fill with
blood.– The atria contract and fill the ventricles and
the ventricles contract to pump blood forward. (The sound of your heartbeat is made by this pumping phase.)
• This process happens in less than a second.

PacemakerPacemaker
• A group of cells located in the right atrium.
• Constantly receives messages about the body’s oxygen needs.
• Heart rate is adjusted to match needs.

Two LoopsTwo Loops
• Body has three kinds of blood vessels:– ARTERIES -- blood vessels that carry
blood away from the heart.– CAPILLARIES -- substances are
exchanged between the blood and body cells.
– VEINS -- blood vessels that carry blood back to the heart

• Blood flows through the body in a figure eight pattern.
• The heart is at the center where the two loops cross.

Loop OneLoop One
• Blood travels from the heart to the lungs and then back to the heart.– Blood from the body
flowing into the right atrium is oxygen-poor (low oxygen and high carbon dioxide)
– Oxygen-poor blood is dark red.
• Blood travels from the heart to the lungs and then back to the heart.– Blood from the body
flowing into the right atrium is oxygen-poor (low oxygen and high carbon dioxide)
– Oxygen-poor blood is dark red.

Loop One -- cont’dLoop One -- cont’d
• Flow of blood:– Right atrium ---> right ventricle ---> arteries
towards the lungs ---> capillaries close to the lungs ---> picks up oxygen from the lungs (the blood is now oxygen-rich) ---> carbon dioxide moves from blood into the lungs (and carbon dioxide-poor) ---> blood (bright red now) flows to the left side to be pumped through Loop Two.
• Flow of blood:– Right atrium ---> right ventricle ---> arteries
towards the lungs ---> capillaries close to the lungs ---> picks up oxygen from the lungs (the blood is now oxygen-rich) ---> carbon dioxide moves from blood into the lungs (and carbon dioxide-poor) ---> blood (bright red now) flows to the left side to be pumped through Loop Two.
Loop TwoLoop Two
• Blood flows to the body and back.– Left atrium fills with oxygen-rich blood
coming from the lungs ---> left ventricle ---> aorta (largest artery in the body) ---> branching arteries and tiny capillaries in different parts of the body ---> oxygen moves out of the blood and into the body cells ---> carbon dioxide passes from the body cells into the blood ---> blood flows back to the right atrium through veins.
