When most people hear the term cardio-vascular system, they immediately think of the heart. We have all felt our own heart “pound” from time to time when we are ner- vous. The crucial importance of the heart has been recognized for ages. However, the cardiovascular system is much more than just the heart, and from a scientific and medical standpoint, it is important to understand why this system is so vital to life.
Night and day, minute after minute, our tril- lions of cells take up nutrients and excrete wastes. Although the pace of these exchanges slows dur- ing sleep, they must go on continuously: when they stop, we die. Cells can make such exchanges
only with the interstitial fluid in their immediate vicinity. Thus, some means of changing and “refreshing” these fluids is necessary to renew the nutrients and prevent pollution caused by the buildup of wastes. Like a bustling factory, the body must have a transportation system to carry its various “cargoes” back and forth. Instead of roads, railway tracks, and subways, the body’s delivery routes are its hollow blood vessels.
Most simply stated, the major function of the cardiovascular system is transportation. Using blood as the transport vehicle, the system carries oxygen, nutrients, cell wastes, hormones, and many other substances vital for body homeostasis to and from the cells. The force to move the blood
The Cardiovascular System
WHAT

WHY
The cardiovascular system delivers oxygen and
nutrients to the body tissues and carries away wastes such as carbon dioxide
via blood.
The heart pumps blood throughout the body in blood vessels. Blood flow
requires both the pumping action of the heart and changes in
blood pressure.
If the cardiovascular system cannot perform its
functions, wastes build up in tissues. Body organs fail to function properly,
and then, once oxygen becomes depleted, they will die.

➔ConCeptLinkThe terms for the connective tissue coverings of a nerve should seem familiar: We discussed similar struc-tures in the muscle chapter (Figure 6.1, p. 209). Names of muscle structures include the root word mys, whereas the root word neuro tells you that the struc- ture relates to a nerve. For example, the endomysium covers one individual muscle fiber, whereas the endo- neurium covers one individual neuron fiber. ➔
Like neurons, nerves are classified according to the direction in which they transmit impulses. Nerves that carry impulses only toward the CNS are called sensory (afferent) nerves, whereas those that carry only motor fibers are motor (efferent) nerves. Nerves carrying both sensory and motor fibers are called mixed nerves; all spi- nal nerves are mixed nerves.

About the Authors
Elaine Marieb After receiving her Ph.D. in zoology from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, Elaine N. Marieb joined the faculty of the Biological Science Division of Holyoke Community College. While teaching at Holyoke Community College, where many of her students were pursu- ing nursing degrees, she developed a desire to bet- ter understand the relationship between the scientific study of the human body and the clinical aspects of the nursing practice. To that end, while continuing to teach full time, Dr. Marieb pursued her nursing education, which culminated in a Master of Science degree with a clinical specializa- tion in gerontology from the University of Massa- chusetts. It is this experience that has informed the development of the unique perspective and acces- sibility for which her publications are known.
Dr. Marieb has given generously to provide oppor- tunities for students to further their education. She funds the E. N. Marieb Science Research Awards at Mount Holyoke College, which promotes research by undergraduate science majors, and has underwritten renovation of the biology labs in Clapp Laboratory at that college. Dr. Marieb also contributes to the Univer- sity of Massachusetts at Amherst, where she gener- ously provided funding for reconstruction and instrumentation of a cutting-edge cytology research laboratory. Recognizing the severe national shortage of nursing faculty, she underwrites the Nursing Schol- ars of the Future Grant Program at the university. In January 2012, Florida Gulf Coast University named a new health professions facility in her honor. The Dr. Elaine Nicpon Marieb Hall houses several specialized laboratories for the School of Nursing, made possible by Dr. Marieb’s generous support.
Suzanne Keller Suzanne M. Keller began her teaching career while she was still in graduate school at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio, Texas. Inspired by her life- long passion for learning, Dr. Keller quickly adopted a teaching style focused on translating challenging concepts into easily understood parts using analogies and stories from her own experi- ences. An Iowa native, Dr. Keller uses her expertise to teach microbiology and anatomy and physiol- ogy at Indian Hills Community College, where most of her students are studying nursing or other health science programs.
Dr. Keller values education as a way for students to express their values through the careers they pursue. She supports those endeavors both in and out of the classroom by participating in her local Lions Club, by donating money to the Indian Hills Foundation to fund scholarships, and by financially supporting service-learning trips for students. Dr. Keller also enjoys sponsoring children in need with gifts for the holidays.
Dr. Keller is a member of the Human Anatomy and Physiology Society (HAPS) and the Iowa Acad- emy of Science. Additionally, while engaged as an author, Dr. Keller has served on multiple advisory boards for various projects at Pearson and has authored assignments for the Pearson Mastering A&P online program. When not teaching or writ- ing, Dr. Keller enjoys reading, trav eling, family gatherings, and relaxing at home under the watch- ful eyes of her two canine children.
