What to Focus On

  • The circulatory system transports substances in the body.
  • It includes the heart, blood, and blood vessels.
  • It helps in delivering oxygen and nutrients and removing waste.
  • The heart is a pump made of cardiac muscle.
  • It has four chambers: two atria and two ventricles.
  • It beats about 72 times per minute.
  • Blood is red due to haemoglobin.
  • It carries oxygen, food, and waste.
  • White blood cells protect the body from germs.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

All arteries carry pure (oxygen-rich) blood and all veins carry impure (carbon dioxide-rich) blood.

The heart pumps blood only once per minute or only when we exercise.

Blood is only for carrying oxygen.

Memory Tips

The four chambers of the heart: Right Atrium, Right Ventricle, Left Atrium, Left Ventricle

Function of the heart: pumps blood to all body parts

Arteries carry oxygen-rich blood away from the heart

Veins carry oxygen-poor blood back to the heart
