|
|
Blood is pumped by a heart through vessels and does not normally fill body cavities |
CLOSED CIRCULATORY SYSTEM |
|
|
Blood is pumped by a heart into the body cavities, where tissues are surrounded by the blood |

|
|
Materials transported by Circulatory System |
• NUTRIENTS • WATER • OXYGEN • CARBON DIOXIDE ARE CARRIED AWAY OR REMOVED BY THE BODY |
|
|
Circulatory system is made up of/ consist of |
• HEART • BLOOD • BLOOD VESSELS |
