- It is a muscular organ that pumps blood around the body.
- The Circulatory System can also be defined as...
- It is an organ which include the arteries, veins, and capillaries.
- It is made up of red and white blood cells, plasma, and platelets.
- It is a muscular organ in the chest that pumps blood through blood vessels when it contracts.
- It is a fluid connective tissue that circulates throughout the body through blood vessels.
- These are blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart. Most of them carry oxygen-rich blood, and one of their main functions is distributing oxygen to tissues throughout the body.
- It refers to the smallest arteries.
- These are blood vessels that carry blood toward the heart. Most of them carry deoxygenated blood.
- It refers to the smallest veins.
- These are the smallest blood vessels. They connect arterioles and venules. As they pass through tissues, they exchange substances including oxygen with cells.
