Module 9.3 Prview

- Directions: 

- The vessels of the cardiovascular system are integrated within almost every single structure, organ, and organ system within the body for obvious reasons. This year, we won't be going into depth on the interaction will all systems so for this warm-up you will examine a specific example of interaction between the circulatory vessels and one other body system. 

- Urinary system (Kidneys) 

- Lymphatic system 

- The liver

- The Spleen 

- Directions: Pick one of the systems or organs from the list above or one of your choice and complete the following tasks: 

1) Give a general description of how your choice relies heavily on blood vessels. 

2) Draw a diagram that show a microscopic interaction between blood vessels and the structures that interact within whatever you picked from the list. Include labels in this diagram as well as any other information that explains how materials are exchanged between blood and organ. (you may to do some outside research!)

3) Finally, describe a homeostatic imbalance associated with your organ or organ system and how the cardiovascular system is involved. 

-EXAMPLE: See the diagram below to see a very basic version of the diagram required. This example shows the microscopic interaction between the small intestine and the blood vessels found there.
