To transport substances like oxygen and nutrients around the body, larger animals need a circulatory system. A circulatory system has three main parts: a pump, vessels for the blood to travel in, and structures to ensure the blood flows in only one direction.
Quiz#2
In a circulatory system, what organ acts as the pump to move blood?
the heart
Quiz#3
In a circulatory system, what structures are responsible for maintaining one-way blood flow?
valves
Lesson#4
Let's start with the simplest type, called a single circulation, which is found in fish. In a single circulation system, the blood passes through the heart only once for each complete circuit of the body. The route is: heart to gills, then to the rest of the body, and finally back to the heart.
Quiz#5
What is the term for a circulatory system where blood passes through the heart only once for each complete circuit of the body?
single circulation
Quiz#6
Which group of animals typically has a single circulatory system?
fish
