The Cardiovascular System
The Cardiovascular SystemThe cardiovascular system is made up of the heart and all of the blood and lymphatic vessels in the body. The heart acts as a pump to drive the blood; a complex fluid made up of digested food materials, respiratory gasses (oxygen being carried in, carbon dioxide being carried out), and protective and regulatory chemicals through the approximately 60,000 miles of vessels in the body.

Every year, approximately 1.5 million Americans have a heart attack, 300,000 of whom die before receiving medical attention.
