MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Two distinct fluids move through the circulatory system: blood and lymph. Blood carries oxygen and nutrients to the body’s cells, and carries waste materials away. Blood also carries hormones, which control body processes, and antibodies, to fight invading germs.

Detailed explanation-2: -The vascular system, also called the circulatory system, is made up of the vessels that carry blood and lymph through the body. The arteries and veins carry blood throughout the body, delivering oxygen and nutrients to the body tissues and taking away tissue waste matter.

Detailed explanation-3: -The lymphatic system is a network of delicate tubes throughout the body. It drains fluid (called lymph) that has leaked from the blood vessels into the tissues and empties it back into the bloodstream via the lymph nodes.

Detailed explanation-4: -The circulatory system (cardiovascular system) pumps blood from the heart to the lungs to get oxygen. The heart then sends oxygenated blood through arteries to the rest of the body. The veins carry oxygen-poor blood back to the heart to start the circulation process over.
