Heart blood circulation


heart blood circulation 



The circulatory system includes the lymphatic system, which circulates lymph.[1] The passage of lymph for example takes much longer than that of blood.[2] Blood is a fluid consisting of plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets that is circulated by the heart through the vertebrate vascular system, carrying oxygen and nutrients to and waste materials away from all body tissues. Lymph is essentially recycled excess blood plasma after it has been filtered from the interstitial fluid (between cells) and returned to the lymphatic system. The cardiovascular (from Latin words meaning "heart" and "vessel") system comprises the blood, heart, and blood vessels.[3] The lymph, lymph nodes, and lymph vessels form the lymphatic system, which returns filtered blood plasma from the interstitial fluid (between cells) as lymph.
The circulatory system of the blood is seen as having two components, a systemic circulation and a pulmonary circulation.[4]
While humans, as well as other vertebrates, have a closed cardiovascular system (meaning that the blood never leaves the network of arteries, veins and capillaries), some invertebrate groups have an open cardiovascular system. The lymphatic system, on the other hand, is an open system providing an accessory route for excess interstitial fluid to be returned to the blood.[5]The more primitive, diploblastic animal phylalack circulatory systems.
Many diseases affect the circulatory system. This includes cardiovascular disease, affecting the cardiovascular system, and lymphatic disease affecting the lymphatic system. Cardiologists are medical professionals which specialise in the heart, and cardiothoracic surgeons specialise in operating on the heart and its surrounding areas. Vascular surgeons focus on other parts of the circulatory system.

Liver

Liver  The liver is the gland in the body weighing between 1 and 2.3 kg it is situated in  the upper part of the abdomonal cavity occupying the greater part of the right hypochondriac region part of the epigastric region and extending into the left hypochondriac region organs associated with the liverer The liver is endoclosed in a thin inelastic capsule and incompletely covered by a layer of peritoneumv. Folds of peritoneum form supporting ligaments atteching the liver to the inferior surface of the diaphragm  The liver has four lobes .The two most obivious are the large right lobe and the  smaller , wedge-shape left lobe .  The other two the caudate and quadrate lobes are areas on the posterior  The portal fissure This is the name given to the region on the posterior surface of the liver where various structure enter and leave the gland Blood supply  The hepatic aetery and the portal vein take blood to the liver venous return is by a variable number o

kidney

Kidney The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs in the renal system. They help the body pass waste as urine. They also help filter blood before sending it back to the heart. The kidneys perform many crucial functions, including: maintaining overall fluid balance regulating and filtering minerals from blood filtering waste materials from food, medications, and toxic substances creating hormones that help produce red blood cells, promote bone health, and regulate blood pressure Nephrons Nephrons are the most important part of each kidney. They take in blood, metabolize nutrients, and help pass out waste products from filtered blood. Each kidney has about 1 million nephrons. Each has its own internal set of structures. Renal corpuscle After blood enters a nephron, it goes into the renal corpuscle, also called a Malpighian body. The renal corpuscle contains two additional structures: The glomerulus.  This is a cluster of capilla
