| Summary: | "CIRCULATION OF THE BLOOD: The human body requires a constant supply of oxygen and nutrients to its billions of cells, and the constant removal of carbon dioxide and water. Those tasks are performed by the blood. In this examination of the circulatory system, colorful animation documents the process that keeps human beings alive. The program explains the function of each part of the heart, shows how matter is exchanged in the cells, and illustrates the role of the nervous system in regulating heartbeat. KIDNEY FUNCTIONS: The body removes useless or potentially harmful waste materials by filtering blood through the kidneys. This program explains the process, showing how the network of blood vessels in a frog's kidney works to extract waste material. Microphotography traces the progress of harmless blue pigment as it is filtered through the kidney's blood vessels, then carried away by the ureter to the bladder"--AIMS Multimedia Web site. |
