All of these blood vessels are located throughout the entire body. The arteries are what blood goes through while leaving the heart. Capillaries are tiny blood vessels where molecules are exchanged between the blood and body cells. And veins are blood vessels that carry blood back to the heart.

What other body systems does the cardiovascular system interact with?

# data[].attributes.body
The cardiovascular system interacts with the immune system. It interacts with the immune system because the cardiovascular system transports cells that attack disease-causing microorganisms.

What behaviors maintain cardiovascular health

# data[].attributes.body
Exercise strengthens your heart muscle and helps prevent atherosclerosis. Eating a balanced diet helps maintain cardiovascular health as well. Eating foods that are high in cholesterol and fats can lead up to a build of fatty deposits on artery walls, which is called atherosclerosis. Avoiding smoking will reduce your chances of cardiovascular disease.

a very small blood vessel where substances are exchanged between the body cells and the blood.

A condition in which an artery wall thickens as a result of the buildup of fatty material.

An artery that supplies blood to the heart itself.

A blood vessel that carries blood out of the heart.

The blood takes two loops. Firstly, it goes from the heart to the lungs to get oxygen. The right ventricle is the one that pumps blood to the lungs. And the left atrium receives the oxygenated blood. When the blood has oxygen, it turns bright red, not blue. It travels back to the heart. That is the first loop. Now the heart, or the left ventricle specifically, pumps blood throughout the body. Then the blood is returned to the right atrium and back to the heart. That is the second loop. The blood travels to the right ventricle from the right atrium and the two loops start over again.

The atriums are each of the two upper chambers of the heart that receives blood that comes into the heart.

The pressure that is exerted by the blood against the walls of blood vessels.

The aorta is the largest artery in the body

# data[].attributes.body
The pacemaker is a group of cells located in the right atrium that sends signals that make the heart muscle contract. This regulated the heartbeat rate.

A hollow and muscular organ located in your chest that pumps blood throughout the body.

A heart attack is a disease and occurs when blood flow to a part of the heart is blocked, which causes cells to die. This permanently damages the heart. It is also called the coronary artery disease.

A vein is a blood vessel that carries blood back to the heart.

# data[].attributes.body
The valve is a vein or a flap of tissue in the heart that doesn't let blood flow backwards.

# data[].attributes.body
The cardiovascular system, or the circulatory system, is the system in which blood is pumped throughout the body and transports items through the blood stream.

# data[].attributes.body
The origin of the heartbeat is from the Pacemaker.  It is a group of cells located in the right atrium. The pacemaker sends out signals for the heart to contract. When you are exercising the pacemaker increases it speed. Why? Your muscles need oxygen to keep working. The rapid heartbeat supplies blood, that carries oxygen, to the body.

The heart is a hollow and muscular organ. It is the major organ in this system. The heart has two sides to it. The left and the right of course. Each side has two chambers. The two top chambers are called Atria or Atrium (Singular). The Atria receive blood from veins. The two bottom chambers are called Ventricles. Ventricles pump out blood.

As said in the introduction, the cardiovascular (circulatory) system transports items through the bloodstream and pumps blood throughout the body.
