A vessel is a
structure that carries something
example- vein (blue) and artery (red)
157
Blood vessels are a set of tubes that connect
to the heart
158
Name two specific circulations
pulmonary - lungs
| systemic - body
159
Three types of vessels
arteries
veins
cappilaries
160
arteries
take blood away from the heart
| arterioles are small arteries
161
veins
take blood back to the heart
| venules are small veins
162
capillaries
connect arteries and veins
163
aorta
largest artery in the body
164
dilator
to open up
165
rrhea
discharge (flow/running)
166
rrhagia
hemorrhage
167
Angiogram
| DEFINE/EXAMPLES
visualize the blood vessels with an angiogram to see abnormalities
- deposits of fat
- floating material
- cutoff in flow
- dilation of a vessel
168
Vena cava/ vena cavae (PLURAL)
largest veins in the body
- superior vena cava (Above)
- inferior vena cava (Below)
- these two large veins enter the right atrium of the heart - bringing blood LOW IN OXYGEN
169
aneurysm
bulging or ballooning of a vessel
170
right side of the heart
receives blood from the top (superior vena cava_
receives blood from bottom (inferior vena cava)
sends blood to the lungs
blood is high in Co2
171
left side of the heart
receives blood from the lungs
sends blood to the rest of the body
blood is high in O2
