Q

phrenic nerve innervates what important muscle ?

A

diaphragm

27
Q

where does the right phrenic pass and what level does it reach the diaphragm

A

along the right lung root, and descends anteriorly at t8

28
Q

where does the vagus nerve pass and function

A

behind the right lung root

Parasympathetic innervation to all organs in abdomen and thorax

29
Q

at what level does the vagus nerve pass through the diaphragm

A

T10

30
Q

Where is the main source of total peripheral resistance

A

arterioles

31
Q

difference between pulmonary and systemic circulation and pathway

A

pulmonary- heart to lungs RV to pulmonary trunk which divides into left and right PA

Returns via the 4 PA to LA

systemic- heart to rest of body
LV THROUGH TO AORTA
Returns via svc into ra

32
