CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM: CIRCULATION and LYMPHATICS Flashcards
There are 3 types of blood vessel:
- Artery
- Vein
- Capillary
Hepatic portal vein
Oxygenated blood
The 3 layers of
tissue in arteries & veins
- Tunica intima
- Tunica media
- Tunica externa (or adventitia)
Anastamosis
branches of arterials provides alternative route for blood if blockages form
Arteriolosclerosis
disease where the arteries harden or
thicken
Blood pressure is controlled by
baroreceptors in
aortic arch and carotid sinuses
Hormonal control
Angiotensinogen
what is ACE
angiotensin converting enzyme
Open Circulatory System
Directly baths organs in blood- small organism
Closed ciculatory system
blood is fully enclosed within blood vessels at all times
The Cardiovascular System Of Vertebrates?
Single and double
Species that use a Single cardiovascular system
Fish
What species used double cardiovascular system
Mammals
SYSTEMIC CIRCULATION
Heart and tissue
PULMONARY CIRCULATION
Heart and lungs
Carotid arteries function
supply blood to the head/brain
