Blood vessel/ Artiers vs veins/ Brain & Liver drainage Flashcards
() system consists of two main circulations:
() circulation: short loop that runs from heart to lungs and back to heart
() circulation: long loop to all parts of body and back to heart
Blood returning to heart is delivered via terminal () veins, superior and inferior vena cava, as well as coronary sinus

Deep veins share same name with corresponding artery
() vein, () artery
Femoral
Superficial veins do not correspond to names of any arteries
() & () veins
Basilic,Cephalic
Arteries and veins tend to run side by side, and, in many places, they also run with nerves
() vessels do not always match on right and left sides of body
Systemic
Name of vessel usually reflects:
Body () being traversed (axillary, brachial, popliteal),
() served (renal, hepatic, splenic)
() being followed (vertebral, radial, tibial)

Bone
The brain and digestive systems have unique venous drainage systems
Brain contains dural () sinuses
() portal system: drains most GI venous blood back to liver via portal vein prior to returning to heart
venous
Hepatic
