Ch 9 - Circulatory, Lymphatic, and Immune Systems Flashcards
_____ circulation carries blood between the heart and lungs for gas exchange
pulmonary
______ circulation carries blood between the heart and the rest of the body’s tissues
systemic
muscular double pump located in the thoracic cavity
heart
the thin, membranous sac surrounding the heart
pericardium
the three layers of the heart wall
epicardium
myocardium
endocardium
outer layer of the heart
epicardium
thick middle layer of the heart
myocardium
innermost layer of the heart
endocardium
four chambers of the heart
left and right atria
left and right ventricles
the _____ valve separates the right atrium and right ventricle
tricuspid
the _____ valve separates the left atrium and left ventricle
mitral (bicuspid)
the ____ _____ valve separates the left ventricle from the aorta
aortic semilunar
contraction of the ____ ____ forces blood through the pulmonary semilunar valve to go to the lungs
right ventricle
path deoxygenated blood takes from the right ventricle to the lungs to get oxygenated:
right ventricle –> pulmonary semilunar valve –> pulmonary trunk –> _______ _____ –> lungs
pulmonary arteries
path the recently oxygenated blood takes from the lungs to the aorta:
lungs –> pulmonary veins –> pulmonary trunk –> ___ ___ –> mitral valve –> left ventricle –> aorta
left atrium
each heartbeat (or cardiac cycle) includes a _____ & _____ of each chamber
contraction, relaxation
contraction of the heart
systole
relaxation of the heart
diastole
____ develops pressure and forces blood through the circulatory system
systole
_____ allows the chambers of the heart to fill again
diastole
_____ _____ is measured by a sphygmomanometer
blood pressure
___ ___ is the measure of force of blood on the arterial walls and is given as a ratio
blood pressure
three layers surrounding the lumen of arteries and veins:
tunica adventitia
tunica media
tunica intima
the outer layer of blood vessels
tunica adventitia
