﻿ ﻿The Circulatory System is also known as the Cardiovascular System !!

__Blood Circulation__

The names of the blood vessels are the arteries, veins, and capillaries. Arteries take deoxygenated blood __a__way from the #|heart to get oxygen from the lungs. Veins take oxygenated blood to the heart so the heart can pump it to the rest of the body .This circulation of the blood to the heart and lungs is called __Pulmonary Circulation__. Capillaries transfer blood from the arteries to the veins. The circulation of blood from the heart to the rest of the body is called __Systemic Circulation.__

There are 4 types of blood.They are...    Type A  Type B    Type AB  Type O

Blood may need to be transferred to someone that needs it .However, certain types of blood can't be given ﻿ to someone that has a different type. Here are what types of blood can and can't be transferred to other types.

__Recievers__ __Donors__ Type A Type A,AB, and O Type AB Type A,B,AB, and O Type O Type O

Type AB is also known as the "universal reciever" because if someone has type AB blood, they can recieve blood from all other blood types. Type O is known as the "universal donor" because people that have type O blood can give to people with all other blood types.

= All about the heart! = ==== The heart has 4 chambers, the left and right ventricles and the left and right artria.The Circulatory and Respiratory systems work together to get oxygen from the lungs into the blood cells,then pump through the heart.Blood starts by pumping from the right atrium to the right ventricle. then it goes through ﻿__arteries__ , picking up oxygen from the lungs while it travels through the ﻿__capillaries__. The now oxygenated blood travels back through the veins, back to the heart.This time,the blood goes through the left atrium, then to the left ventricle, where oxygenated blood is pumped to the rest of the body. The flow of the blood to the rest of the body is Systemic Circulation.The flow of blood to the heart and lungs is Pulmonary Crculation. Learn more about these types of circulation under __Blood Circulation.__ ====

= Keeping the Circulatory System healthy!! = It is crucial to keep the Circulatory System #|healthy. Follow these steps, and your Circulatory System will be healthier than ever!


 * Don't ever smoke! The #|cigarette smoke that gets into your lungs can be picked up by blood traveling through the lungs, and will affect you in ways like a #|heart attack, or even death.
 * Eat #|healthy! Fattier foods can clog your arteries,and give you not only a #|heart attack, but could kill you.
 * No alcohol! Alcoholic drinks can get intto your bloodstream and could damage your Circulatory System in more ways than one!
