The cardiovascular system is a component of the circulatory system (the other component being the lymphatic system) and consists of the heart, blood vessels and blood. Its 3 main functions include:
1. Transport of oxygen and nutrients toward and wastes away from cells of our body
2. Immunological protection of our body from foreign organisms and substances
3. Maintenance of homeostasis including the regulation of body temperature, blood pressure, electrolytes and water balance.
Because the cardiovascular system interacts with other organs of the body in a complex fashion, you cannot simply state that it has one main or overall function. Like most organ systems of the body it serves several vital roles which are necessary for the survival of the organism. However, in terms of IMPORTANCE, the function of transportation (of which oxygen if often cited as essential) would probably rank as paramount above the maintenance of homeostasis and immunologic protection.
There are two: the digestive system and the cardiovascular system.
1. Respiratory system 2. Cardiovascular system
The cardiovascular system is made up of the heart (which pumps blood) and the blood vessels (which transport blood throughout the body).
The respiratory system and the circulatory (cardiovascular) system.
I believe it's the cardiovascular system and the respiratory system.
The circulatory system, which includes the heart, blood vessels, and blood, is responsible for distributing oxygen and nutrients to all parts of the body. Oxygen and nutrients are carried in the blood and delivered to cells throughout the body.
The two organs responsible for bringing oxygen into the body are the lungs and the cardiovascular system. The lungs extract oxygen from inhaled air and transfer it to the bloodstream, while the cardiovascular system circulates the oxygenated blood throughout the body to deliver it to cells.
The four major functions of the human body are: supplying the body with oxygen and removing carbon dioxide through respiration, providing structure and support through the skeletal system, facilitating movement through the muscular system, and coordinating bodily functions through the nervous system.
There are bivalves in the human cardiovascular system have two "flaps" that help move the blood in one direction and prevent it from flowing back in the incorrect direction.
The systems controlling the whole human system are the vital systems in the body...they are:Airway&Breathing > Respiratory SystemCirculation >CardioVascular systemAbove two system form the ABC of Resucitation & for Maintainance of LifeThe Integrity & functional preservation of Central Nervous System are maintained by the above two systems.Preservation of Central Nervous System is the basis for a gud quality of life.
The respiratory system removes carbon dioxide from the body by exhaling it from the lungs. The cardiovascular system also plays a role by transporting the carbon dioxide to the lungs where it can be exhaled.
1) Transport of oxygen into the body 2) Transport of carbon dioxide out of the body
