So we’ve talked about the blood vessels, but do any of you have any ideas of why it is so important that our vital organs get a good supply of blood?
Zhenya had a quick think about the importance of a good blood supply to the vital organs, such as the heart, and raised her hand, "
Madame the vital organs need a rich supply of blood because it provides them with oxygen and glucose, and other vital nutrients for functioning. If the blood supply was in any way compromised then the tissues composing the organ would begin to damage and eventually die. The blood also carries the hormones which can be really important in the regulation and control of organs, and communicating between organs and systems, such as the brain and kidneys." she explained.
