20
Q

Carotid arteries

A

21
Q

Which blood vessels are oxygenated and which are deoxygenated?

A

All ARTERIES carry OXYGENATED blood EXCEPT for the PULMONARY ARTERY (carries deoxygenated blood). The PULMONARY VEIN carries oxygenated blood

22
Q

What is the correct sequence for the flow of blood in the human body?

A
Vena cava 
Right atrium 
Pulmonary capillaries 
Pulmonary vein 
Left ventricle 
Aorta
23
Q

A
  • function in housekeeping and defense
    1. ) neutrophils
    2. ) monocytes
    3. ) lymphocytes
    4. ) eosinophils
    5. ) basophils
24
Q

Neutrophils

A
  • most common
  • pushes cytoplasm
  • phagocytize foreign material
  • active transport
25
Q

Monocytes

A

Large phagocytizing cells
-WBC growth factors

Pus
-dead WBC

26
Q

Lymphocytes

A

T-cells
-attack cells through MHC complex, which contains viruses
B-cells
-antibodies to mark antigens

27
Q

Eosinophils

A

Granular : small sized

Release enzymes for fighting parasites and destroying allergens

28
Q

Basophils

A

Least common

Prevents quick blood clots

Vasodilator histamine- increases blood flow to the tissues

29
Q

Blood vessels

A

Arteries
Arterioles
Capillaries

30
Q

Arteries

A

Main source of oxygenated blood transport.

Heart to elsewhere

Largest

31
Q

Arterioles

A

Diameter adjusted to regulate blood flow

Smaller than arteries, larger than capillaries

32
Q

Capillaries

A

Diffusion occurs across thin walls
Smallest
Site of exchange between blood and interstitial fluid
Flow is flow

33
Q

Blood flow order

A

Capillaries–>venues—> veins

34

Veins layer

A
Outer
-fibrous 
Middle
-smooth muscle/elastic tissue 
Inner
-endothelium: squamous epith.

Not fully separated

39
Q

Birds/mammals

A

Four-chambered heart
Fully separated
Is able to keep themselves warm where as the others before them couldn’t

40
Q

Systematic circuit

A
Longer loop, Carries blood to and from tissues 
Abdominal aorta 
1.) right ventricle 
2.)pulmonary arteries
3.) capillaries beds in lungs 
4.) pulmonary veins
41
Q

Hepatic portal system

A

Blood from digestive organs to liver

Uses capillaries

Neck (cervical)
Armpits (axillary)

Note: no lymph nodes associated with CNS
