Biological systems Flashcards
Thrombocytes are the technical word for __________
Platelets
These small vessels can be used to assess circulatory health
Capillaery
The division of circulation transports blood around the body
Systemic
This type of circulation is present in dogs and cats
Closed
__________ saturation in arterial blood should be above 95%
Oxygen
Technical term for red blood cells
Erythrocytes
This division of circulation takes blood from the heart to the lungs and back again
Pulmonary
These blood vessels take blood away from the heart
Arterys
Technical term for white blood cells
Leucocytes
The buffy coat layer sits in the __________ of a centrifuged blood sample
Middle
Takes blood to the lungs
Pulmonary Arterys
Returns blood to the heart from the lungs
Pulmonary Veins
Aorta
Takes blood around the body
Vena Cava
Takes blood from body to right atrium
Coronary Vessels
Supplys the heart with its own blood supply
Cardiac Septum
Separates the left and right sides of the heart
Plumonary Arterys
Takes blood to the lungs
Plumonary Veins
Returns blood to the heart from the lungs
Separates the left and right sides of the heart
Cardiac Septum
Supplys the heart with its own blood supply
Coronary Vessels
Takes blood from body to right atrium
Vena Cava
Takes blood around the body
Aorta
What blood vessels take oxygenated blood away from the heart
Systemic Arterys
What blood vessel takes deoxygenated blood towards the heart
Plumenaty arteries, vena cava, systemic veins
What type of vessel can have either oxygenatied or deoxygenated blood toegether
Capillaerys
What links Veins and Arterys together
Capillaerys
__________ Circulation supplys the lungs
Pulmonary
__________ Circulation supplys the body
Systemic
What vessel leaves the heart? To either to supply the body or lungs
Arterys
What vessel returns to the heart? from either the body or lungs
Veins
If you divide the heart up into 4 sections what would they be called?
Top part - Atrium
Right Atrium, Left Atrium
Lower part - Ventricle
Right Ventricle, Left Ventrical
Do pulmonary artery’s and systemic artery’s both carry oxygenated blood
No
Only the systemic artery’s carry oxygenated blood away from the heart. LORD (left oxygenated, right deoxygenated)
Circulatory system.
What vessels or side carry a deoxygenated blood
Both the artery’s and veins on the right side.
Systemic veins, located on the right side carry deoxygenated blood towards the heart.
Pulmonary artery’s, located on the right side carry deoxygenated blood towards the lungs.
