The Cardiovascular System. William Harvey (1628) demonstrated that the circulatory system forms a circle so that blood is continuously pumped out of the heart by way of another set of vessels. (i.e. Arteries and Veins). The Cardiovascular System.

The Cardiovascular System Heart attacks are, perhaps, the number one killer in the USA. In middle age and older persons, the probability of developing a coronary disease increases with: 1. Smoking 2. Obesity 3. Cholesterol/triglycerides 4. Abnormal ECG 5. Hypertension

Heart & Circulation 1.Blood Blood cells become packed at the bottom of the tube when whole blood is centrifuged, leaving the fluid at the top of the tube. Red blood cells are the most abundant of the blood cells -- white cells & platelets float ?? Only a thin, light-colored “buffy coat” at the interface between the packed red blood cells and the plasma.
