If you take a closer peek at theIf you take a look closer at the circulatory system, it looks like a big ball of wool that a kitty has gotten hold of, and played it into one big tangled deal. Actually the circulatory system is probably a lot better 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 have many us to consider about how it actually involves our full bodies, and that by familiarizing what it wants, and why it requires certain items, we will be all the more likely to ensure it gets it.
At times to exhaustively understand something it helps to paint a picture. So permit me do something the same to that here ,and give you something that is simple to visualize.
Imagine a two lane highway. One is going North the other South. At the beginning of the highway going south is a enomous manufacturing plant (the heart). In this plant are four chambers (four chambers of the heart) that each produce a material, for the final merchandise that this company makes(the enriched oxygen filled blood cells). This good product is pumped out into containers (arteries). These containers are now sent away from the plant (heart) down the expressway (the blood flow) to various shops along the way(body organs that need 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 carry on with this visual image as to what comes about in the four rooms (chambers of the heart) in order to get the good merchandise prepared.
Hopefully this has given you a little more understanding of how the system works and the grandness of it . For example going back to our visualisation, if one item were to collapse then it would have a direct affect on all the other steps. This is exactly would happen in our bodies. - 15254
