A diagram showing the circulatory system including the heart and blood vessels.

The Circulatory System is a group of organs that work together to carry oxygen and nutrients around the body.

The circulatory system is how nutrients and oxygen are transported to every part of the body.

The circulatory system is made up of the heart, blood vessels and the blood.

If the circulatory system stops working all the organs in the body will run out of oxygen and die.

The circulatory system is a transport system found in some animals used to transport oxygen, nutrients and waste around the body.

The circulatory system is made of:

The heart - An organ which pumps blood.
Arteries - Blood Vessels which transport blood away from the heart.
Veins - Blood Vessels which transport blood towards the heart.
Capillaries - Extremely small Blood Vessels that spread through the organs to deliver the blood.
