Concepts of organs and systems Organ: composed of four kinds of the tissues in a particular way Hollow organs: studied from inside to outside vpes parenchyma Substantial organs: Interstitium System: composed of many organs which have relationship with each other in structure and function

Cardiovascular System The histological study of the cardiovascular system Includes two major components Heart- mainly functions as a pump to move blood (and all the things blood carries)through the body Blood vessels -are the tubes that distribute the blood to the cells and then back to the heart
Cardiovascular System The histological study of the cardiovascular system includes two major components • Heart – mainly functions as a pump to move blood (and all the things blood carries) through the body. • Blood vessels – are the tubes that distribute the blood to the cells and then back to the heart
The blood vessels include three major divisions arteries deliver blood from heart to capillaries Capillaries the smallest blood vessels and closest to body cells, the interchanges between blood and tissues occur there Veins carry blood from body to the heart
The blood vessels include three major divisions: Arteries – deliver blood from heart to capillaries Capillaries – the smallest blood vessels and closest to body cells, the interchanges between blood and tissues occur there Veins – carry blood from body to the heart

Artery transport blood from heart to capillaries according to their size, structure and function Large artery Medium-sized artery d>lmm are classified Small artery d>0.3-1mm Arteriole d<o 3mm
Artery ▪ transport blood from heart to capillaries ▪ according to their size, structure and function Large artery Medium-sized artery D>1mm Small artery D>0.3~1mm Arteriole D<0.3mm are classified

• The wall of Arteries consist of three layers or “coats” often referred to as tunics. – Tunica intimae – is the inner coat – Tunica media – is the middle layer – Tunica adventitia or tunica externa is the outer layer of the wall of the blood vessel • Layers of arteries wall differ in different size blood vessels. The structure and function of arteries change as their diameter decreases. Structure features of artery
