3.2 Flashcards
Place the following chambers of the heart, vessels and lungs in order as blood flows through
FROM THE BODY 1. R. atrium 2. R. ventricle 3. pulmonary artery 4. lungs 5. pulmonary veins 6. L atrium 7. L. ventricle 8. aorta TO THE BODY
What structure is the remnant of the fetal blood shunt from the right atrium to the left atrium?
foramen ovale
Which chamber receives blood returning from the lungs?
L atrium
What are the muscular ridges within the ventricles called?
trabeculae carneae
What ensures the movement of blood in one direction through the heart?
valves
T/F: The coronary sulcus marks the position between the junction of the atria and the ventricles on the external surface of the heart.
True
T/F: The fibrous pericardium is the tough, fibrous sac that encloses the heart.
True; Deep to the fibrous pericardium is the serous pericardium.
Arteries of Lower Extremity:
popliteal a.
femoral a.
anterior tibial a.
posterior tibial a.
Arteries of Upper Extremity
ulnar

PROXIMAL celiac a superior mesenteric a renal a gonadal a inferior mesenteric a DISTAL
Superficial Veins:
Basilic
cephalic
great saphenous

Using the terms provided, trace a drop of blood from the elbow back to the heart.
brachial axillary subclavian braciocephalic superior vena cava
Using the terms provided, trace a drop of blood from the posterior side of the knee back to the heart.
popliteal femoral external iliac common iliac inferior vena cava
T/F: The tunica intima (interna) is the thickest layer in arteries.
False; The tunica media is the thickest layer in arteries, while the tunica adventitia (externa) is the thickest layer in veins.
T/F: The hepatic vein carries absorbed products of digestion to the liver.
False; The hepatic vein returns deoxygenated blood from the liver to the inferior vena cava. The hepatic portal vein carries absorbed products of digestion to the liver for processing.
