You panic. You feel hurt and stupid at the same time. About 2 days later you feel a lot better and actually free from the burden of carrying around all that weight. You think, 'at least I know now how they feel'. Then you pick yourself up, dust yourself off and move on. Love is sweet.
The cardiovascular system contains your arteries. This system is responsible for pumping blood throughout the body and contains the heart, veins, capillaries, and other parts â¦that pump blood to the rest of the body. Blood passes through arteries, therefore making the arteries part of the cardiovascular system.
Three sets of vessels comprise the circulatory system: arteries, lymphatics, and veins. Arteries bring oxygen-carrying blood from the heart to the tissues. In the normal course of blood circulation, small amounts of fluid and protein leak from arteries and veins. Lymphatic vessels bring this protein-rich fluid back into the circulation. The third type of blood vessel is the vein. Veins bring oxygen-depleted blood from the organs and tissues to the heart and lungs, where it is re-oxygenated. Blood return to the heart tends to be passive and is enabled by muscle contraction in the arms and legs.
