Cardiovascular System The cardivascular sysyem is the system that circulates oxygen through the blood. The main parts of the cardiovascular system are the heart and the blood vessels. Humans have a "closed cardiovascular system" which means blood never leaves the network of blood vessels. Blood contains red blood cells, white blood cells/leukocyte, platelets and plasma. Within the system there are many different types of blood vessels included in the major groups of arteries and veins. Arteries are vessels that bring oxygenated blood to the organs, muscles and rest of the body. The veins carry blood throughout the body. Most veins carry deoxygenated blood from tissues back from the lungs. Capillaries are the smallest part of the body's blood vessels. Capillaries help for the exchange of water,oxygen,nutrients and other body needs through the body. There are many valves in the humans heart. Valves in the heart keep the flow of blood in the heart going by opening and closing
