Discover Facts Of The Human Circulatory System

By James R

If you take a closer peep at theIf you take a see closer at the circulatory system, it looks like a big ball of wool that a kitten has gotten hold of, and worked it into one big tangled deal. In Reality the circulatory system is likely a lot simpler to sort out then that wool would be.

Our standard wisdom of the heart is, we know if its not working right we may suffer a heart attack. That there are four rooms in the heart, and that there is a entire string of veins and arteries We dont know a whole lot about these except, that if we cut an artery we could easily bleed to death. Another fact that is somewhat familiar to us, is we know that if we have overmuch fat in our blood, then cholesterol has everything to do with it, and its not good for us. That may be what we know of the circulatory system. Really when you stop to think about it, thats a fair amount of wisdom.

If we had just a few more details to our knowledge it may drive many us to consider about how it actually affects our whole bodies, and that by familiarizing what it wants, and why it needs certain items, we will be all the more likely to check it gets it.

At times to exhaustively understand something it aids to paint a an image. So let me do something the same to that here ,and give you something that is simple to visualise.

Visualize a two lane expressway. One is going North the other Southward. At the beginning of the main road going southward is a enomous constructing industrial plant (the heart). In this industrial plant are four chambers (four chambers of the heart) that each produce a material, for the last merchandise that this company makes(the enriched oxygen filled blood cells). This good product is pumped out into containers (arteries). These containers are instantly shipped away from the plant (heart) down the expressway (the blood flow) to various storages along the way(body organs that require the enriched cells.)

Now in the other direction coming down the North main road is containers (veins) coming back toward the plant. These containers are containing waste materials (blood that needs to be re oxygenated) These are dropped off at the plant (heart) where it will be refurbished(re oxygenated) and then shipped out once again in the good containers (arteries).

This operation takes place over and over again continuously. This scenerio is only presented this way as a visual image, to merely help you know how the circulatory system works.

If we wanted to, we could go on with this visual image as to what takes place in the four rooms (chambers of the heart) in order to get the good merchandise ready.

Hopefully this has given you a little more visualizing of how the system works and the importance of it . For example going back to our visualisation, if one good were to collapse then it would have a direct impact on all the other steps. This is precisely would befall on in our bodies. - 15437
