How is the circulatory system used?
The circulatory system is in constant use in humans. It is essential for the distribution of blood to and from your heart. Without it, the blood in your body would not be able to circulate. It brings oxygen and nutrients to the cells in your body as well as removes waste and toxins. The circulatory system is a system consisting of capillaries,arteries, and veins=]
Does oysters have a closed circulatory system?
No oysters do not have a closed circulatory system. They have something known as a open circulatory system. They are similar to that of fish. They have something similar to that of the gills in fish so that they are able to function in the aquatic environment. The closed circulatory systems, are usually in the terrestrial animals such as mammals, birds etc.
What is the function of blood in circulatory?
The function of blood in circulatory is to bring oxygen to the cells around the body. Without blood cells would not be able to get oxygen.
The circulatory system provides support for the skeleton?
The veins and arteries are able to wrap tightly around the skeleton, so they will not dislodge.
Do humans have open or closed circulatory system's?
they have a closed circulatory sytsem:]yur welcome..... Sorry, this answer is very incorrect. A closed circulatory system means that the blood is contained within blood vessels, which the heart is able to pump/move through the tissues for very efficient gas exchange. Sponges DO NOT have this. In fact sponges do not even technically have a circulatory system at all, gas exchange is achieved by diffusion from the outer cells. So this means that sponges do not have an open or a closed circulatory system, because they don't have one at all.
How does suffocation affect the circulatory system?
Suffocation will indirectly affect the circulatory system. Suffocation means that you are unable to breath. The lungs are not able to take in oxygen from the air. The oxygen does not transfer into the blood. The oxygen does not circulate in the blood throughout the body to nourish the cells. The cells in the body are not able to get the oxygen and eventually start dying. The most sensitive part of the body is the brain. After a few minutes of no oxygen,brain cells start dying. Eventually the cells in the heart die, the heart stops and the circulatory system shuts down.
Why is the advantage of a closed circulatory system?
You are able to turn on and off electricity.
Why are the respiratory and circulatory system necessary for life?
Without these systems, we wouldn't be able to breathe or to pump blood throughout our body. We need these systems in order to stay alive.
What can go wrong with the circulatory system?
Some of the problems of the circulatory system are; angina (when the heart stops working), aortic aneurysm (when the aorta explodes), arrhythmia (when the heart doesn't have a very good beat rhythm), high blood pressure (this is easy to remember, it says exactly what it means), peripheral vascular disease (when blood doesn't get to the outsider areas of the body). All of these terms are not very scientific. But good for people like me to be able to understand :) So if you need scientific terms don't use these ones.
Why do flatworms have no need for a circulatory or respiratory system?
Flat worms do not have blood. There fore, they do not require a respiratory system to infuse fresh oxygen into the blood. This lack of a respiratory system, means they do not have lungs.
What are the similarities between the circulatory system and an electrical circuit?
in order for a circuit to work the whole circuit has to be connected, just like the circulatory system. The heart pumps the blood around the body so that the oxygen in the blood can go around the body to the required organs or muscles. In a circuit the battery pumps the electrons around the circuit so that the bulb is able to work.
How do insects move and fly actively despite the type of circulatory system they have?
Even if insects have an open circulatory system, which is usually characterized by slow animals with low metabolic rates, their circulatory system does not participate in supplication of oxygen to the tissues and in the gas exchange process. That is handled by the independent tracheal system, the spiracles, which allows direct contact of cells with the air. With this, the oxygen demand can be supplied even with an open circulatory system.source: http://www.biology-questions-and-answers.com/the-circulatory-system.html
