16
Q

How do superficial and deep veins play a role in body temp?

A

Hot weather = blood in superficial veins dilate to allow heat loss

Cold weather = blood in deep veins constrict to minimize heat loss

17
Q

How does deoxygenated drain back into the heart? (SVC & IVC)

A

IVC = areas inferior to diaphragm
SVC = areas diaphragm and above

18
Q

Which veins drain into superior vena cava?

A
  • Jugular vein (head and neck)
  • vertebral vein (cervical spinal cord, posterior surface of skull)
  • ulnar & radial vein
  • brachial & axillary vein
  • subclavian vein
19
Q

Veins from hand to superior vena cava in order?

A

Ulnar and radial vein -> brachial vein -> axillary vein and cephalic merge -> subclavian vein and jugular vein merge -> brachiocephalic vein -> right and left brachiocephalic vein merge to form superior vena cava

20
Q

What is the hepatic portal circulation?

A

Carries blood from digestive organs to liver for processing before returning to systematic circulation via inferior vena cava

21
Q

What three veins makes up hepatic portal vein?

A
  1. Splenic and gastric vein
  2. Superior mesenteric vein
  3. Inferior mesenteric vein
22
Q

What does the splenic and gastric vein drain?

A

Collects blood from stomach, spleen and pancreas

23
Q

What does the superior mesenteric vein drain?

A

Collects blood from stomach, small intestine, and 2/3 of large intestine

24
Q

What does the inferior mesenteric vein drain?

A

Collects blood from 1/3 of large intestine and rectum

25
Q

How does the lower limbs drain blood? In what order?

A

Tibial, fibular, popliteal and small saphenous veins -> femoral vein + great saphenous vein join -> iliac vein

26
Q

What do lumbar veins drain?

A

Spinal cord and muscles of body wall

27

32
Q

What are the three types of arteries you can find in the brain?

A
  1. Internal carotid arteries
