Chapter 42 (Module 3) Flashcards
Simple organisms exchange system:
Happens within the Gastrovascular cavity. The body wall of the gastrovascular cavity is only 2 cells deep –> no need for circulation
Complex organisms exchange system:
Circulatory system and gas exchange system connected
Circulatory system components: (3)
- Muscular pump
- Circulatory fluid
- Interconnecting vessels (veins/arteries (valves))
Open systems… (3)
- are found in some vertebrates (insects, mollusks)
- has a dorsal/tubular heart with Ostia (pores)
- has hemolymph, not blood
Closed systems… (2)
- can be found in Annelids (earthworms), Cephalopods (octopi), and Vertebrates
- blood is confined to vessels and is distinct from the interstitial fluid
Another name for closed circulatory system in vertebrates?
Cardiovascular system
Three types of vessels:
- Arteries
- Veins
- Capillaries
Arteries carry blood…
AWAY
Arteries –> _____ –> capillaries –> _____ –> Veins
arterioles, venules
Vertebrate heart chambers #?
2 or more
Blood enters through ____ and is pumped out through ____.
(Chambers)
atrium/atria, ventricles
Single Circulation (fishes): (3)
- 2 chambered heart
- blood passes through 2 capillary beds before returning
- BP is very low after passing through gills, making it hard to get blood to the rest of the body
Double circulation (amphibians, reptiles, mammals): (3)
- O2 poor blood gets pumped to the lungs through pulmonary circuit
- O2 rich blood is delivered to body though systemic circuit
- Double circulation = higher BP in organs
Reptiles (except crocodilians) have __ chambered hearts with a partially separated ______.
3, ventricle
Amphibians: O2 poor blood flows through a __________ ______ and pick up O2 through the ____ and ____.
Pulmocutaneous circuit, lungs, skin
Mammals and birds are _____ and require more ____ than _______.
Endoderms, O2, ectoderms
Pulmonary Circuit: (3)
- purpose to gain O2 in blood and get rid of CO2 in blood
- deoxygenated blood flows via the pulmonary arteries/arterioles to the lungs
- oxygenated blood returns from the lungs via the pulmonary venules/veins
Goal of the systemic circuit?
To gain O2 and get rid of CO2
Heart chambers: (2)
- 2 atria: relatively thin walls, acts as collection chambers
- 2 ventricles: thicker walls, contract more forcefully
Heart valves: (3)
- Four valves to prevent back flow
- Atrioventricular (AV): separate each atria from their ventricle
- Semilunar valves: control blood flow to the aorta and pulmonary artery
Heart murmurs are causes by…
blood flowing back through a defective valve
Cardiac cycle:
when the heart contracts and relaxes in a rhythmic cycle
Systole:
contraction or pumping phase
