multicellular organisms in obtaining their
cellular requirements and getting rid of waste
product
2. Suggest how these problems are overcome in
multicellular organisms
3. Transport
• To describe how the substance in our body
move from one part to the other part
• Transport process varies in different types of
organism
4. Difference transport in unicellular and
multicellular organisms
• 1. Unicellular organism
Ex?
They have large total surface area to volume
(TSA/V) ration that enable substance to diffuse
easily into the cell
• To obtain oxygen and nutrients directly from
external environment
• Carbon dioxide and other waste product also
eliminated by diffusion through plasma
membrane
• So, They do not need any internal transport
system
5.
6. Multicellular organisms
Ex?
• The TSA/V ration decreases
• Cells often located away from external surface of
the body
• Diffusion rate also decrease which is a limiting
factor to cellular activities in large animals
• These organism have specialized structure to
increase surface area ( alveolus)
• They also need circulatory system to
– Distribute nutrients and oxygen
– Remove waste product
7. exercise
• Examine cuboid A and B. Calculate the TSA/V
of both cuboids. Assume that the cuboids are
two organisms.
• Which organisms obtain their cellular
requirement (O2 and nutrients) and removing
their waste product( co2 and urea) easily?
• Why?
8. Assignments

10. Functions of the circulatory system
The circulatory system has three functions:
1. Transporting substances around the body. These
include oxygen, glucose, carbon dioxide, nutrients,
water and waste products.
2. Controlling body temperature.
3. Protecting the body. Blood contains cells
and anti-bodies that fight infection and
clotting agents to stop bleeding.
11. 3 components of circulatory system
1. Medium of transport/ Blood
2. Blood vessel
3. Heart
12.
13. 1. Medium of transport/ Blood
Animals:
Blood which consist of blood plasma, blood cells
( RBC, WBC) and plateles
Invertebrates:
Ex:
Use haemolymph (fluid in hoemocoel)
Hoemocoel: rongga
Functions: transport material around the body
14. Blood
Blood is the body’s means of transporting
substances around. It transports:
oxygen from the lungs to the heart and then to the
body’s tissues
carbon dioxide from the tissues to the heart and
then to the lungs to be expired
materials like hormones from one organ to another
nutrients (especially glucose) and minerals from the
intestines to the tissues
waste products to the kidneys.
15. Composition of Human Blood
• Blood: connective tissue that are composed of
1. Cellular components (45%)
• Platelets
• Erythrocytes (RBC)
• Leucocytes( WBC)
1. Plasma (55%)
• Water(90%)
• Soluble solutes
16. Cellular components ( 45%)
1. Platelets
• Fragments of cells from bone marrow
• No nucleus
• Important for blood clotting process
17. 1.Platelets
Platelets are also carried in the blood.
Formed in red bone marrow.
Produce thrombokinase –
a chemical needed for blood clotting.
Platelets help to repair tissues
and close wounds both
internally and externally.
When needed, they grow into
irregular shapes and stick together to
form a plug over the wound.
18. • They aggregate and release factors which
promote the blood coagulation.
•
19. 2.Red blood cells
Blood is made up of a number of different elements.
The most common cell in blood is the red blood cell.
Also called erythrocytes.
Disc-shaped.
Made in the bone marrow.
Contain a red-coloured compound
called haemoglobin which bonds
with oxygen to form
oxyhaemoglobin.
Transport oxygen to the tissues.
20. • In the other vertebrates (e.g. fishes,
amphibians, reptilians and birds), they have a
nucleus.
21. 3.White blood cells
Blood also contains white blood cells.
Also called leucocytes.
They are bigger than red
blood cells and have large
nuclei.
Act as the body’s defence
system.
Some white blood cells surround and consume
harmful microbes.
Some produce chemicals called antibodies that
fight infection.
colorless
22. • Each type of leukocyte is present in the blood
in different proportions:
• neutrophil 50 - 70 %
eosinophil 2 - 4 %
basophil 0,5 - 1 %
lymphocyte 20 - 40 %
monocyte 3 - 8 %
23. • In fact, these granules have a different affinity
towards neutral, acid or basic stains and give
the cytoplasm different colors.
• So, granulocytes distinguish themselves in
neutrophil, eosinophil (or acidophil) and
basophil.
25. 1. Granulocytes
• Granular cytoplasm
• filled with microscopic granules that are little
sacs containing enzymes, compounds that
digest microorganisms.
• Lobed nuclei( kelepek)
• Form in bone marrow
Consist of:
1. Basophils
2. Neutrophils
3. Eosinophils
26. Neutrophils
• As a Phagocytes
• Which digest
bacteria and dead
cells
• By phagocytosis
process
32. • In the different types of granulocytes, the
granules are different and help us to
distinguish them.
• In fact, these granules have a different affinity
towards neutral, acid or basic stains and give
the cytoplasm different colors.
• So, granulocytes distinguish themselves in
neutrophil, eosinophil (or acidophil) and
basophil
33. 2. Agranulocytes
• Clear cytoplasm
• Nuclei are not lobed( terkelepek)
• Consist of
1. Lymphocytes
2. monocytes
34. • Lymphocytes are cells which, besides being present
in the blood,
• Its populate the lymphoid tissues and organs too, as
well as the lymph circulating in the lymphatic
vessel.
• An antibody is a molecule able to bind itself to
molecules of a complementary shape
called antigens, and recognize them.
• As for all proteins, even the antibodies are coded by
genes.
• On the basis of a recombination mechanism of
some of these genes, every lymphocyte produces
antibodies of a specific shape.
35. Lymphocytes
• Produce
antibodies
• Neutralize toxins
• Produce immune
responses against
foreign substance
• Largest leucocytes

44. Plasma
The blood cells and platelets are suspended in a
substance called plasma. Plasma is made up of:
90% water
inorganic salts(Na+, Mg2+, Cl-)
glucose
antibodies
urea and other waste products
plasma proteins.(ex: albumin, fibrinogen,prothrombin)
Dissolved gases( oxygen and carbon dioxide)
Hormones ( insulin)
45. • The plasma is a slightly alkaline fluid, with a
typical yellowish color
• The mineral substances are dissolved in ionic
form, that is dissociated into positive and
negative ions.
• Ex: Ca2+
46. plasma
Plasma can be separated from the
other components of blood using
a centrifuge.
47. Functions of blood in Transport
1. Transport in oxygen
2. Transport of carbon dioxide
3. Transport of water to tissues
4. Transport of excretory waste products
5. Transport of hormones
6. Transport of heat
7. Transport of absorbed food materials
48. 1. Transport of oxygen
• Transport o2 from lung/alveolus cells/ all
part of body
• Oxygen combine with haemoglobin in
erythrocytes to form = oxyhaemoglobin
• Oxyhaemoglobin dissociates into haemoglobin
and 02
• O2 then supplied for cellular respiration (ATP)
Hb + O2 ---> HbO
<-------
49.
50. 2. Transport of carbon dioxide
• Cellular respiration release co2
Glucose + o2 - energy +co2+ water
• Carbon dioxide transported from cells to lungs/
alveolus in the form of:
a)Hydrogen carbonate ions
b) Carbaminohemoglobin
c)Dissolves directly in the blood plasma
When the blood reaches the lungs, the co2 release
and diffuse out of the blood into the alveoli
51.
52. • Hydrogen carbonate ions are produced when
carbon dioxide produced by tissue respiration
is absorbed by blood plasma.
• In your lungs, hydrogen carbonate ions turn
back to carbon dioxide which is excreted when
you exhale.
53. • Carbaminohaemoglobin is a combination of
carbon dioxide and hemoglobin,
• CO2HHb, being one of the forms in which
carbon dioxide exists in the blood.
54. 3. Transport of water to tissues
• Water is transported by blood to provide a
medium for biochemical reactions
55. 4.Transport of excretory waste
products
1. Deamination
• Process removing the amino group from the
excess amino acid.
• The amino group is converted to ammonia
and then to urea by the liver
• From liver, urea transported by blood to
kidneys to be excreted
56. 5.Transport of hormones
• Blood transport hormones produced by
endocrine gland to the target organs
• Ex: insulin and glucagon carried by blood from
pancreas to the liver
57. 6. Transport of heat
• Blood helps regulate body temperature by
distributing heat
58. 7. Transport of absorbed food
materials
• Soluble digested food, vitamins and mineral
absorbed into capillaries of the villi in small
intestine
• Ex: simple sugar: glucose
• Amino acids
• Water soluble vitamins
• Mineral salts
59. • They are transported by the hepatic portal
vein from small intestine to liver and then to
the heart
• Other food materials are absorbed into
lacteals in the villi
• Ex: fatty acids, glycerol , vitamin ADEK (Fat
soluble susbtances)
• They are then transported by the lymph into
the blood circulatory system via the left
subclavian vein
65. Function of Haemolymph in transport
Haemolymph:
• the circulating fluid in open tissue spaces of
invertebrates
• A circulating blood-like nutritive fluid which
fills the entire body cavity called haemocoel
• A circulating system in invertebrates = open
circulatory system because the haemolymph:
1. Is not confined to vessels only
2. Bathes the tissues and internal organs
directly
66. • Nutrients such as digested food and hormones
diffuse from haemolymph into cells.
• Waste products diffuse out from cells into the
haemolymph
• Haemolymph does not transport respiratory
gases.
• Gaseous exchange via the tracheal system
67.
68. 2. Blood vessels
• Consist of arteries
• Capillaries
• Veins
functions: carries blood around the body
70. Blood vessels
There are three types of blood vessels,
blood from blood to the

the thick muscle can
contract to push the
blood along.
75. The VEIN
Veins carry deoxygenated blood towards from the
heart.
veins have valves
which act to stop the
blood from going in
the wrong direction.
thin muscle and
elastic fibres body muscles surround the veins
so that when they contract to
move the body, they also
squeeze the veins and push the
blood along the vessel.
76. The CAPILLARY
Capillaries link Arterioles with
Venus
they exchange materials
between the blood and
other body cells.

capillary The exchange of materials
is only one cell thick between the blood and the
body can only occur
through capillaries.

79. Blood vessels: valves
When blood is flowing against gravity, or when a vein is
squeezed by muscle action, there is a risk that blood will
flow in the wrong direction. Veins have valves to prevent
backflow.

80. 3. Heart
• A heart is an organ that generates pressure to
pump the blood through out the body
81.
82. How blood is propelled through
the human circulatory system?
83. Location of the Heart
• The heart is located between the lungs behind
the sternum and above the diaphragm.
• It is surrounded by the pericardium.
It is a fluid filled sac that surrounds the heart
• Its size is about that of a fist, and its weight is
about 250-300 g.
85. Anatomy of the heart
• Heart made up of myogenic cardiac
muscles which contract and relax
automatically throughout life
• It is not controlled by nervous system
86. • The human heart has four chambers:
1. Left and right Atrium (atria= plural)
• Upper chambers which receive blood
returning to the heart
• Thin -walled
2. Left and right ventricles
• Lower chambers which pump blood out of
the heart
• Thick walled
87. Septum:
• Separates the right chambers from the left
chambers
The valves: ensure that blood flows only in one
direction.
1. Tricuspid valve
2. Bicuspid valve
3. Semi lunar valve
88.
89.
90. The Heart Valves
• The tricuspid valve- the valve between the
right atrium and right ventricle
• The bicuspid valve- the valve between left
atrium and left ventricle
• Semi lunar valve- the valves at the base of
aorta and pulmonary artery
91.
92.
93. • The right pump forces deoxygenated blood to
the lungs
• The left pump forces oxygenated blood to
other parts of the body
94. Pumping of the heart/ the heartbeat
• http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/heart/heartmap.html
98. SAN and AVN
• Electrical signal begins in the sinoatrial (SA)
node: "natural pacemaker."
– causes the atria to contract.
– Blood is then forced into the ventricles
• The signal then passes through the
atrioventricular (AV) node.
– sends the signal to the ventricles via the
“bundle of His”
– causes the ventricles to contract.
– And pump the blood out of the heart
99. • Right ventricle pumps the blood into
pulmonary artery – which forces the blood to
the lung
• Left ventricle pumps the blood into aorta –
which forces the blood to all part of the body
101. • Left ventricle is thicker and more muscular
than the wall of the right ventricles
• Because it needs to generate greater pressure
to pump blood to all parts of the body
• While the right ventricle pumps the blood to
the lungs only
102. What is the cardiac cycle?
• Cardiac cycle is the series of events that occur
during one complete heartbeat
• Including contraction (systole) and relaxation (
diastole) of both atria and ventricles
103. • The sino atrial node(SAN) can initiate the
heartbeat on its own
Sympathetic nerve carrying impulse to the heart
can increase the heart rate
Parasympathetic nerve can slow it down
The heart rate increase when:
• Increase in the secretion of hormone
(adrenaline)
• An increase in partial pressure of carbon
dioxide in the blood
• Body temperature is elevated
105. 1.Muscle relaxed , valves closed
2.Muscles contract, upper valves open and
blood is forced upwards , lower valve remain
close
3. Muscles relaxed, upper valves closed, lower
valve opens as a result of muscle contraction
elsewhere and blood flows forwards
106. Regulatory mechanism of blood
pressure
• Blood pressure is the force of the blood exerted
of the arterial blood vessels
• Arterial blood pressure is highest during
ventricular systole , and lowest during diastole
• Baroreceptors monitor the pressure of blood
flowing to the body and to the brain
• Baroreceptor located in the walls of the aorta
and carotid arteries branch out from the aorta.
