Top Cardiovascular System Flashcards

The cardiovascular system is an organ system that allows blood to circulate through the body and move vital nutrients (such as amino acids and electrolytes), oxygen, carbon dioxide, hormones to and from the cells in the body to provide nourishment and aid in fighting diseases, stabilizing temperature, and many other crucial things for survival. In our cardiovascular system flashcards, we cover the physiology of the cardiovascular system, take an in depth look at the heart and so much more.

After reviewing our first set of flashcards, you will be able to answer questions like: what are the four principal functions of the cardiovascular system? In our second set of flashcards, we answer questions like: What are the specialised cells that initiate the electrical impulse in the heart? What are the events during the cardiac cycle? And in our final set, we cover topics such as the mediastinum, the structures that blood passes through, and the route of electrical conduction of the heart. Enjoy!
