Lymphatic System and Heart Disease
Do Now Please draw a Venn Diagram. One circle
should be labeled ‘Veins’ the other circle should be labeled ‘lymphatic vessels’
Compare and contrast.
Homework Due Today
Questions on page 961, 1-3
1. List the main functions of plasma, red blood cell, white blood cells and platelets.
2. Hemophilia is a genetic disorder that results from a defective protein in the clotting pathway. What do you think happens to a person with hemophilia who has a minor cut?
3. Describe the role of the lymphatic system
4. How are the functions of veins and the lymphatic vessels similar? How are they different? (Venn Diagram)
5. What are the risk factors for the three common diseases of the circulatory system?
6. Why do you think atherosclerosis may lead to hypotension?
Answers1. Plasma contains dissolved gases and salts; RBCs carry
oxygen; WBCs fight infection; platelets clot blood
2. Hemophiliacs would bleed uncontrollably
3. Collects lymph and returns it to the circulatory system, removes microorganisms from the blood, and helps absorb fats and fat soluble vitamins from the digestive tract
4. Venn Diagram
5. High fat diet, lack of exercise, being overweight, smoking, having diabetes, age, family history, gender
6. The heart exerts more pressure to push blood through stiff veins, leading to hypertension

Plasma 90% water 10% dissolved gases, salts, nutrients,
enzymes, hormones, etc. Helps control body temperature Albumin, globulins, and fibrinogen
Review
Red Blood Cells Most numerous cells in blood Transport oxygen Get their color from iron in hemoglobin
Binds oxygen in the lungs
Produced by cells in red bone marrow Circulate for average of 120 days
Review
White Blood Cells Also called, leukocytes Guard against infection Increased levels signify a fight against
serious infection Outnumbered by RBCs 1000 to 1 Can live for years
Review
Platelets Plasma proteins and cell fragments Assist with the clotting of blood
Review
Lymphatic System Network of vessels, nodes and organs that
collect lymph that leaves capillaries, checks for microorganisms, and returns it to the circulatory system
There is no pump; lymph is moved via pressure created from skeletal muscles
When injury or disease blocks lymph vessels, lymph can collect in tissues, causing swelling
Lymphatic System About 500-600 lymph nodes in you body
Under jaw Armpits Groin
Organs of the Lymphatic System
Thymus – located beneath the sternum Matures lymphocytes
A type of white blood cell, helps with immune system functions
Spleen – Upper right quadrant Filters blood of microorganisms and other
loose debris
Circulatory System Disease
Heart Disease
Stroke
High Blood Pressure
Heart disease is the leading killer in the United States
Heart Disease Facts (CDC)
600,000 people die of heart disease each year in the US 1 in 4
Leading cause of death in both men and women
Every year, 935,000 Americans have a heart attack 610,000 of those are ‘First timers’

MORE)NOT SMOKINGHIGH BLOOD PRESSUREHIGH BLOOD CHOLESTEROLDIABETES
Cholesterol Lipid (fat) that is part of animal cell membranes
Synthesizes hormones, bile and vitamin D Vitamin D – cell growth and immune function
Cholesterol is in HDL and LDL LDL – Bad cholesterol
Becomes a part of plaque
HDL – Good Cholesterol Transports cholesterol from tissues and arteries to the
liver for removal
HDL/LDL Cholesterol should be between 100 – 200
mg / dL
LDL – less than 100 mg/dL
HDL Men – greater than 40 mg/dL Women – greater than 50 mg/dL
PREVENTION It is much easier to prevent heart disease than cure it
Starts when you’re young
Includes Balanced diet Regular Exercise Not smoking
Exercise strengthens the heart and helps it work more efficiently
