Human circulatory system with a female skeleton,artwork. The cardiovascular,or circulatory system,transports oxygen and nutrients to all cells and tissues in the body via the blood. Its major components are the heart,the veins (blue) and the arteries (red). The heart (seen here between the lungs) is a muscular pump that circulates the blood. The lungs oxygenate the blood and remove the waste product carbon dioxide. The veins (mostly carrying deoxygenated blood) bring blood from the body to the heart,while the arteries take blood (mostly oxygenated) from the heart to the body | |
