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
How is the circulatory system of insects different from mammals?
Yes, in fact you can see veins on the wings of some flying bugs, such as dragonflies. I also found out that spiders don't have muscles; their blood circulates very swiftly from one leg to the other for them to run.
What type of circulatory system do African lions have?
Their circulartion system is very similar to humans (closed circulatory system)
Why is the circulatory system of a reptile called a double loop circulatory system?
I think is because the circulatory system of a reptile has the ability to redirect deoxygenated blood from the lungs to save energy.
How many loops are in a frogs circulatory system?
A birds circulatory system consists of two loops.
Which system is responsible for transporting hormones from endocrine glands to various body tissues?
The circulatory system is responsible for transporting hormones from endocrine glands to target tissues.
Which system relies on the circulatory system for the transport of hormones?
the urinary system
How do your hormones travel?
The endocrine glands secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream. The hormones then travel to target tissues via the circulatory system.
What are the chemicals secreted by the endocrine system?
The chemicals secreted by the endocrine system are known as hormones. These chemical messengers are carried by the circulatory system to their target tissues.
Why is circulatory system known as body's transport system?
The circulatory system not only transports oxygen to and CO2 from cells, but also transports nutrients and hormones around the body.
Endocrine glands release chemicals directly to what?
Endocrine glands release chemicals directly into the bloodstream. These hormones are then carried by the circulatory system to their target tissues.
What are the one main funtions of the circulatory system?
The main function of the circulatory system is to transport nutrients, oxygen, and wastes through the body. It also carries immune components and hormones.
How are secretions distributed from the endocrine glands?
The hormones produced by the endocrine glands are secreted directly into the bloodstream. The circulatory system then distributes these chemical messengers to target tissues throughout the body.
What is the main functoin of circulatory cardvascular?
The main function of the circulatory or cardiovascular system is carrying oxygen, nutrients, and wastes to the body tissues. It also carries immune materials and hormones.
Which system carries hormones from glands to all tissues?
The cardiovascular system carries hormones from glands to tissues.
Do Endocrine hormones act as chemical messengers?
Yes, endocrine hormones act as chemical messengers. The circulatory system carries them to target tissues, where they carry messages to regulate body processes.
What does blood do with hormones in the circulatory system?
No
