Plant circulation

Transport of:

- water & minerals from roots

- organic materials prod. by photosynthesis (sugars) from shoots (above ground part of

plant)

- hormones

Vessels:

- xylem: transports water & minerals

- phloem: transports organic materials

- circulatory fluid = water

Animal circulation

- carry nutrients and waste products

- carry O2 and CO2

- carry hormones and antibodies

- maintenance of body temp

Invertebrate circulatory systems

invertebrates like sponges, cnidarians (jex. jellyfish), etc. don't need a separate

circulatory system b/c their cells are close to outside environment (no need for long

,distance transport by circulatory system)

- sponges: water pumped by choanocytes through canals allow nutrients, oxygen, and

smaller organisms to come in contact w/ the cells and be captured

- jellyfish: have high SA to volume ratio so can exchange nutrients, gases, wastes etc.

by diffusion

open vs closed circulatory systems

Open: (ex. arthropods, mollusks) blood vessels (incomplete) are not a closed system;

exchange occurs b/t hemolymph & tissues then hemolymph is brought into blood

vessels that bring it back to the heart (in short: blood bathes organs in hemolymph)

- arthropod: blood from vessels empties into body fluid (hemolymph) & bathes the

organs then returns to heart through openings (ostia)

- mollusk: circ system brings blood to organs then flows out again; blood bathes organ

in hemolymph then gets collected in veins that bring blood back to heart



Closed: (ex. annelids/worms) blood is entirely kept in vessels; capillaries are site of

exchange of materials w/ tissue

- more control over blood flow speed & routing (needed for animals w/ high metabolic

demands)

Vertebrate Circulatory system

- shows diversity in environment

- Fish: 1 atria, 1 ventricle, resp/circ system is not separated, no low/high oxygen blood

mixing; no bypass (blood coming from heart won't bypass gills)

- lungfish: 2 atria, left receives from pulmonary blood, right from systemic blood, 1

,ventricle, there is separate resp/circ system, there is low/high O2 blood mixing, no direct

control of amt of blood pumping to body, blood can bypass the gills (has lungs; bypass

allows it breathe air in hypoxic water)

- Amphibian - 2 atria (right gets from systemic, left from pulmonary); 1 ventricle w/

low/high O2 blood mixing; separate resp/circ system; bypass is possible; skin circulation

allows underwater breathing; Double circulation as lungs evolved for land; Despite one

ventricle most of blood entering from left and right atria do not mix (some mixing

though). Most oxygenated blood = high pressure flow into systemic arteries

- Reptile - 2 atria (left receives pulmonary, right gets systemic); 2 ventricles partially

separated by septum (so low/high O2 blood mixing); Can bypass pulmonary circulation

during periods of low metabolism/breath holding (allows shutdown of flow to lungs when

underwater for long periods of time - hibernation/predation; just won't breathe)

- Mammal/bird - 2 atria (right gets systemic; left gets pulmonary); separate resp/circ

system; complete septum (no mixing of low/high O2 blood); can't bypass pulmonary

circulation; high metabolic need of endotherms -> separate system allows blood to

return to heart = full force of contraction to pump to body

Human Heart & Circulation

- 4 chambered heart (2 atria; 2 ventricles)

- blood from upper/lower body drains into right atrium through sup/inf vena cava ; right

atrium -> tricuspid valve (3 flaps) -> right ventricle -> pulmonary valve -> L & R

pulmonary arteries -> lungs (blood gets oxygenated) -> returns to heart by pulmonary

veins -> left atrium -> bicuspid/mitral valve (2 flaps) -> left ventricle -> aortic valve ->

aorta pumps blood to rest of body

, - AV valves: tri/bicuspid valves - prevent backflow of blood into atria when ventricles

contract

- Semilunar valves: pulmonary/aortic valves - prevent backflow of blood into ventricles

from arteries when ventricles relax

Valves operate according to pressure differences

Semilunar valves: ventricles to arteries

Atrioventricular: atria to ventricles

- when ventricle pressure increases & it contracts, papillary muscles pull on chordae

tendineae which stretch & AV valve closes



- ventricle contracting: AV valves close, SL valves open

- ventricle relaxed: SL valves close; AV valves open for filling (b/c low pressure)



** valves don't actively open/close, they are passively opened/closed by the pressure

differences on either side of them

**valves closing causes lub dub sound of heart; lub (1st) is caused by AV valves

closing, dub (2nd) is caused by SL valves closing

The cardiac cycle

cycle of contraction and relaxation of the heart to bring in/pump out blood to pulmonary

& systemic circulation

- 3 measurements: pressure in LV, pressure in aorta, volume in LV (over 1s period aka

about 1 cardiac cycle)
