The circulatory system, also known as the cardiovascular system or vascular system, is a network of organs that includes the heart, blood vessels, and blood. It is responsible for circulating oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and other essential substances throughout the body, while removing waste products like carbon dioxide. The system consists of two main circuits: the pulmonary circulation, which carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs for oxygenation, and the systemic circulation, which delivers oxygenated blood to the body’s tissues. The circulatory system plays a vital role in maintaining the body’s overall health, supporting organ function, muscle activity, and tissue repair.
