Cardiovascular System
The cardiovascular system is responsible for delivering blood, nutrients, ion, oxygen and heat throughout your body. It is a transportation system. If you are exercising, such as running, it moves more oxygen down to your legs and moves lactic acid out of your legs. It moves heat around your whole body; moving heat from your body core to the tips of your fingers and toes on a cold day. It also distributes nutrients from everything you eat throughout your body. This feeds your bones, nerves organs and tissues in your body. The cardiovascular system is vital for survival.
