Open and Closed Circulatory Systems

• How do open and closed circulatory systems compare?

• In an open circulatory system, blood is only partially contained within a system of blood vessels as it travels through the body.

• In a closed circulatory system, blood circulates entirely within blood vessels that extend throughout the body.

Page 4: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Do all animals have hearts?

• Many animals move blood through their bodies using one or more hearts.

• A heart is a hollow, muscular organ that pumps blood around the body.

• A heart can be part of either an open or a closed circulatory system.

Page 5: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

• In an open circulatory system, blood is only partially contained within a system of blood vessels as it travels through the body.

• Arthropods and most mollusks have open circulatory systems.

Page 6: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

• One or more hearts or heart-like organs pump blood through vessels that empty into a system of sinuses, or spongy cavities, where blood comes into direct contact with body tissues.

• Blood then collects in another set of sinuses and makes its way back to the heart.

Page 7: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

• In a closed circulatory system, blood circulates entirely within blood vessels that extend throughout the body.

• Many larger, more active invertebrates, including annelids and some mollusks, and all vertebrates have closed circulatory systems.

– A heart or heartlike organ forces blood through vessels.

Closed Circulatory Systems

Page 8: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Closed Circulatory Systems • Nutrients and oxygen reach body tissues by

diffusing across thin walls of capillaries, the smallest blood vessels.

• Blood that is completely contained within blood vessels can be pumped under higher pressure and circulated more efficiently than can blood in an open system.

Single- and Double-Loop Patterns of Circulation

Which type of organisms would you expect to have which type of circulation? Why?

Page 10: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Single-Loop Circulation

• Most vertebrates with gills have a single-loop circulatory system with a single pump that forces blood around the body in one direction.

• In fishes, for example, the heart consists of two chambers: an atrium and a ventricle.

Page 11: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Single-Loop Circulation

• The atrium receives blood from the body.

• The ventricle then pumps blood out of the heart and to the gills.

• Oxygen-rich blood travels from the gills to the rest of the body. Oxygen-poor blood then returns to the atrium.

Page 12: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Double-Loop Circulation

• Most vertebrates that use lungs for respiration have a double-loop, two-pump circulatory system.

• The first loop of the circulatory system is powered by one side of the heart and forces oxygen-poor blood from the heart to the lungs.

Page 13: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Double-Loop Circulation • The first loop, powered by one

side of the heart, forces oxygen-poor blood from the heart to the lungs.

• After the blood picks up oxygen and drops off carbon dioxide in the lungs, it returns to the heart.

• The other side of the heart pumps oxygen-rich blood through the second circulatory loop to the rest of the body.

Page 14: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

RESPIRATION: THINK ABOUT IT

• All animal tissues require oxygen for respiration and produce carbon dioxide as a waste product. For that reason, all animals must obtain oxygen from their environment and release carbon dioxide.

• Humans can drown because our lungs can’t extract the oxygen we need from water. Most fishes have the opposite problem; out of water, their gills don’t work.

• How are these different respiratory systems adapted to their different functions?

Page 15: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Gas Exchange

• What characteristics do the respiratory structures of all animals share?

• Respiratory structures provide a large surface area of moist, selectively permeable membrane.

• Respiratory structures maintain a difference in the relative concentrations of oxygen and carbon dioxide on either side of the respiratory membrane, promoting diffusion.

Page 16: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Gas Exchange

• Living cells can not actively pump oxygen or carbon dioxide across membranes. Yet, in order to breathe, all animals must exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide with their surroundings.

• Animals have evolved respiratory structures that promote the movement of these gases in the required directions by passive diffusion.

Page 17: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

REMINDER: Gas Diffusion and Membranes

• Substances diffuse from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.

• Gases diffuse most efficiently across a thin, moist membrane that is permeable to those gases.

• The larger the surface area of that membrane, the more diffusion can take place.

Page 18: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Requirements for Respiration • Respiratory structures provide a large surface

area of moist, selectively permeable membrane.

• Respiratory structures maintain a difference in the relative concentrations of oxygen and carbon dioxide on either side of the respiratory membrane, promoting diffusion.

• Because respiratory surfaces are moist, an animal’s breath condenses into fog when the air outside is very dry.

Page 19: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Respiratory Surfaces of Aquatic Animals

• How do aquatic animals breathe?

• Many aquatic invertebrates and most aquatic chordates other than reptiles and mammals exchange gases through gills.

• Aquatic reptiles and aquatic mammals, such as whales, breathe with lungs and must hold their breath underwater.

Page 20: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Respiratory Surfaces of Aquatic Animals

• Some aquatic invertebrates, such as cnidarians and some flatworms, are relatively small and have thin-walled bodies whose outer surfaces are always wet.

• These animals rely on diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide through their outer body covering.

• A few aquatic chordates, including lancelets, some amphibians, and even some sea snakes, rely on gas exchange by diffusion across body surfaces.

Page 21: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Respiratory Surfaces of Aquatic Animals• Many aquatic invertebrates and most aquatic

chordates exchange gases through gills.• Gills are feathery structures that expose a large

surface area of thin, selectively permeable membrane to water.

• Many animals actively pump water over their gills as blood flows through inside.

• As water passes over the gills, gas exchange is completed within the gill capillaries.

• Inside gill membranes is a network of tiny, thin-walled blood vessels called capillaries.

Respiratory Surfaces of Aquatic Animals

• Aquatic reptiles and aquatic mammals, such as whales, seals, and walruses breathe with lungs and must hold their breath underwater.

• Lungs are organs that exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide between blood and air.

Page 24: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Respiratory Surfaces of Terrestrial Animals

• What respiratory structures enable land animals to breathe?

• Respiratory structures in terrestrial invertebrates include skin, mantle cavities, book lungs, and tracheal tubes.

Respiratory Surfaces of Terrestrial Animals

What respiratory structures enable land animals to breathe?

All terrestrial vertebrates—reptiles, birds, mammals, and the land stages of most amphibians—breathe with lungs.

Page 26: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Respiratory Surfaces in Land Invertebrates

• Terrestrial invertebrates have a wide variety of respiratory structures.

• Some land invertebrates, such as earthworms, that live in moist environments can respire across their skin, as long as it stays moist.

• In other invertebrates, such as land snails, respiration is accomplished by the mantle cavity, which is lined with moist tissue and blood vessels.

Page 27: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Respiratory Surfaces in Land Invertebrates

• Spiders respire using organs called book lungs, which are made of parallel, sheetlike layers of thin tissues containing blood vessels.

Page 28: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

– Most insects respire using a system of tracheal tubes that extends throughout the body.

– Air enters and leaves the system through openings in the body surface called spiracles.

Lung Structure in Vertebrates

– Although lung structure in terrestrial vertebrates varies, the processes of inhaling and exhaling are similar.

Page 30: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Lung Structure in Vertebrates

• Inhaling brings oxygen-rich air through the trachea, or airway, into the lungs.

• Inside the lungs, oxygen diffuses into the blood through lung capillaries.

• At the same time, carbon dioxide diffuses out of capillaries into the lungs.

• Oxygen-poor air is then exhaled.

Page 31: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Amphibian, Reptilian, and Mammalian Lungs

• The internal surface area of lungs increases from amphibians to reptiles to mammals.

Page 32: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Amphibian, Reptilian, and Mammalian Lungs

• A typical amphibian lung is little more than a sac with ridges.

Page 33: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Amphibian, Reptilian, and Mammalian Lungs

• Reptilian lungs are divided into chambers that increase the surface area for gas exchange.

Page 34: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Amphibian, Reptilian, and Mammalian Lungs

Mammalian lungs branch extensively and are filled with bubblelike structures called alveoli.

Page 35: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Amphibian, Reptilian, and Mammalian Lungs

Alveoli provide an enormous surface area for gas exchange, and enable mammals to take in the large amounts of oxygen required by their high metabolic rates.

Page 36: Circulatory and Respiratory Systems

Bird Lungs

• In birds, the lungs are structured so that air flows mostly in only one direction, so no stale air gets trapped in the system.

• Gas exchange surfaces are continuously in contact with fresh air.

• This highly efficient gas exchange helps birds obtain the oxygen they need to power their flight muscles at high altitudes for long periods of time.
