are the lungs part of the circulatory system
Major blood vessels include  the Inferior Vena Cava, Superior Vena Cava, Pulmonary Artery,  Pulmonary Veins, Coronary Artery, and Aorta.    The four parts of the circulatory system are the heart, artery,  capillaries, and the veins. The heart is the center or the main  source of the circulatory system, it pumps blood throughout a  network of blood vessels. An artery is a blood vessel that carries  blood away from the body. Capillaries are very thin vessels that  gases, nutrients, and wastes pass to body cells. It includes the pulmonary circulation, a loop through the lungs where blood is oxygenated; and the systemic circulation, a loop through the rest of the body to provide oxygenated blood. The systemic circulation can also be seen to function in two parts–a macrocirculation and a microcirculation. Above is a diagram of an open circulatory system. An open circulatory system is made up of a heart, vessels, and hemolymph. This diagram shows how the hemolymph, fluid present in most invertebrates that is equivalent to blood, is circulated throughout the body of a grasshopper. The alveoli are surrounded by tiny blood vessels, called capillaries. The alveoli and capillaries both have very thin walls, which allow the oxygen to pass from the alveoli to the blood. The capillaries then connect to larger blood vessels, called veins, which bring the oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart. The circulatory system of the lungs is the portion of the cardiovascular system in which oxygen-depleted blood is pumped away from the heart, via the pulmonary artery, to the lungs and returned, oxygenated, to the heart via the pulmonary vein. The three parts of the circulatory system are:   1. The heart-beats 60 to 100 times per minute   2. The blood vessels-about 60 000 miles / 96561 km of vessels,  i … ncluding the arteries, veins, and capillaries. The circulatory system is often seen to comprise both the cardiovascular system, which distributes blood, and the lymphatic system, which circulates lymph. These are two separate systems. The passage of lymph for example takes a lot longer than that of blood. Part I: The Role of the Lungs. contents: 1. Location and Structure of the Lungs. 2. Breathing and Respiration. 3. Gas Exchange. * picture of the heart and its parts. * picture of the body and some of its organs. Location and Structure of the Lungs. The lungs are a pair of elastic, spongy organs used in breathing. In humans the lungs take up a lot of the chest cavity. They are located just behind, and to either side of, the heart. the purpose of the lungs in circulatory system is breathe in and out, supply oxygen to the blood And remove poisons and damaged blood cells. The open circulatory system is a system in which a fluid in a cavity called the hemocoel bathes the organs directly with oxygen and nutrients and there is no distinction between blood and interstitial fluid; this combined fluid is called hemolymph or haemolymph.
