Q

What causes sickle cell disease?

A

Erythrocytes in body do not form complete round cell, but are hook shaped and can get stuck in blood vessels-causes build up and can rupture. Abnormal hemoglobin proteins build up and can deform. Sickle cells can rupture or block blood vessels.

25
Blood is oxygenated as it is being moved to the organs
Single pump system
26
Separate sets of arteries and veins are used to first oxygenate the blood and then send it to the organs
Double pump system
27
What animals usually have a single pump circulatory system?
Fish and marine animals
28
List the leukocytes, greatest to least in amount present
Neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils
29
Why is it important to expel CO2 from the body?
CO2 in water forms an acidic substance which lowers blood pH. This can denature enzymes and cause harm to body.
30
Example of endotherm
Mammals; birds. Require more O2 than ectotherms
31
Contraction/pumping of heart
Systole
32
Relaxation/filling phase
Diastole
33
What do animals that lack circulatory systems have? Functions both as a digestive system and a circulatory system
Gastrovascular cavity
34
Why are the endothelial walls of the capillaries so thin?
So that gas exchange can happen easily and more efficiently
35
Help body fight off infections
Lymph nodes
36
True/false: in single circulation, blood leaving the heart passes through two capillary beds before returning
True
37
True/false: oxygenated blood goes through the left atrium and left ventricle, towards the aorta
True
38
Order of blood flow for a 4 chambered heart starting with right atrium?
Right atrium, right ventricle, lung capillaries, left atrium, left ventricle, systematic capillaries
39
Separate each atrium and ventricle
Atrioventricular valves
40
The epithelial tissue that lines blood vessels
Endothelium
41
Which have thicker walls, veins or arteries?
Arteries
42
Why is diffusion only efficient over small distances?
The time it takes to diffuse is proportional to the square of the distance
43
What percentage of blood does plasma make up?
55%
44
What percentage of blood do elements make up?
45%
45
Positive pressure which forces air down the trachea
How amphibians breathe
46
Have 8/9 sacs which keep air flowing through lungs in one direction
How birds breathe
47
Negative pressure, which pulls air into the lungs
How mammals breathe
48
Frogs and amphibians have a ___ chamber heart
3
49
What do mammals have that allows them to be able to dive?
Myoglobin
50
A blood clot within a vessel
Thrombus
51
Animal with a closed system with blood and positive pressure
Panda
52
Fish have a ___ chamber heart
2
53
Protein responsible for the transport of O2 in the body
Hemoglobin
54
A mixture that contains phospholipids and proteins used to clot the alveoli and reduce surface tension
Surfactant
55
Part of brain that directly controls breathing
Medulla oblongata
56
What two factors are important for coagulation in the blood?
Calcium and vitamin k
57
Amphibians have a ___ chambered heart
3
58
Returns fluid that leaks out of the capillaries
Lymphatic system
59
Platelets and erythrocytes do not have a ___
Nucleus
60
Jellyfish and flatworms have body walls that are only ___ cells thick
2
61
What animal does not have a circulatory system?
Jellyfish
