3. The blood travelling in the artery is under great pressure.

4. The high pressure is caused by the heart beat.

Slide 24

Capillaries and Veins.

Capillaries and Veins.

1. The arteries divide into smaller vessels called capillaries.

2. The capillaries join up to form larger vessels which in turn form veins.

3. The veins carry blood back to the heart.

4. The veins are under less pressure than the arteries.

5. Veins have no pulse and are found nearer the surface than arteries.

Slide 25

Valves.

Valves.

Red blood cells.

These cells are the carriers of oxygen round the body.

The chemical called haemoglobin makes the blood red.

Slide 28

White blood cells.

White blood cells.

1. These cells are responsible for building up immunity to disease.
