What to Focus On

  • The circulatory system includes the heart, blood, and blood vessels.
  • Blood transports nutrients, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and wastes.
  • Human beings and animals have a closed vascular system.
  • Blood moves inside the heart and blood vessels.
  • Tissue fluid fills spaces between body cells.
  • Lymph is tissue fluid that enters lymph vessels.
  • The heart weighs about 225 to 340 grams.
  • The heart is about the size of a folded fist.
  • It is enclosed by the pericardium.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The pulmonary artery carries oxygenated blood because it is an artery.

The pulmonary vein carries deoxygenated blood because it is a vein.

Blood on the right side of the heart mixes with blood on the left side.
