Circulatory + Respiratory System (Ch 19 & 20) Flashcards
1
Q
invertebrates (molluscs + arthoropods) have what kind of circulatory system
A
open circulatory system
2
Q
describe process of open circulatory system
A
=Blood is pumped out of open-ended vessels to bathe organs
=Nutrients diffuse out of blood into body cells
=Pores allow blood to be drawn back into heart @ relaxed state
3
Q
how does crayfish use open circulatory system
A
heart pumps blood out of opening of circulatory vessels bathe all of its cells
4
Q
animals and humans have what kind of circulatory system
A
closed circulatory system
5
Q
how does closed circulatory system work
A
Heart pumps blood through closed system of blood vessels
6
Q
2 types of closed circulatory system and exampples
A
single = fish
double = humans
7
Q
how many chambers does heart have
A
4 (2 atria and 2 ventricles)
8
Q
size of heart
A
fist
9
Q
what does red and blue represent in heart
A
red = oxygenated (high oxygen, low CO2) and blue is vice versa
10
Q
2 circuits that blood gets pumped
A
- Pulmonary = carries blood b/w hearts + lungs
- Systemic = carries blood b/w heart + rest of the organs and tissues
11
Q
is heart single or double pump and why
A
double
This is to create pressure needed to get O2 + nutrients to all body cells
Take up wastes for elimination
12
Q
2 major parts of human circulatory system
A
heart + blood cells (arteries + veins)
13
Q
does arteries carry blood away or towards heart
A
away
14
Q
is left side pump oxygenated or deoxygenated
A
oxygenated
15
Q
blood leaves heart from _ and returns via _
A
ventricles, atria
16
Q
Pulmonary arteries
function
A
Only arteries that transport deoxygenated blood / blood flow in oxygen from heart into lungs
17
Q
pulmonary veins function
A
Only veins that transport oxygenated blood from lungs into heart
18
Q
location of heart
A
under breastbone or sternum
19
Q
valve function
A
ensures that blood only goes one direction
20
Q
2 types of valve
A
tricuspid and bicuspid
21
Q
Tricuspid valve location
A
(right atrioventricular valve) = valve b/w right atrium + ventricle
22
Q
Bicuspid valve location
A
(left atrioventricular valve, mitral valve)
23
Q
why is pulmonary veins thin
A
blood only goes to lungs (short loop)
24
Q
pulmonary trunk function
A
carry blood into lungs
25
Chordae tendineae function
cords of tissues that holds valve in place
26
what happens to valve returning form tissues fills atria
blood pressure on these valves forces them to open into ventricles (which then fills blood)
Ventricles contracts
Blood pressures forces valves to close
27
*ensure u know the 7 steps of pulmonary circuit*
refer to google doc notes
28
2 main veins that carry deoxygenated back to heart:
1) Superior / anterior vena cava (carries blood from upper body)
2)Inferior / posterior vena cava (brings blood from lower body)
29
where does vena cava drain
Both drain into RA which pumps to RV and 2 circuits repeated
30
aorta function
delivers blood to rest of body tissues via arteries
31
function of capillary beds
where gas exchange b/w CO2 and O2 happen
32
Capillaries are only made of one layer, what is this layer?
thin wall of endothelial cells
33
3 layers of blood vessels
Tunica Intima
Media
Adventitia
34
Tunica Intima layer
=Innermost layer surrounds central space of vessel through which blood flows (lumen)
=Made of single layer of endothelium =
=provides smooth lining that allows blood flow easily
35
Media layer
=Middle layer made up of layers of smooth muscle cells + elastic fibres
=Muscle cells can relax + contract
=Makes lumen bigger / smaller
=Elastin = allows blood vessel to stretch + recoil
36
Adventitia layer
=Outer layer made of connective tissues w/ fibres
=Layer protects blood vessel, attaches it to surrounding structures
=Allows vessel to stretch + recoil
37
blood is a type of what tissue
connective b/c it has cells
38
blood consists of cells and what liquid
plasma
39
3 types of blood

blood clotting
43
2 main types of arteries
Elastic arteries
muscular arteries
44
Elastic arteries function (4)
=Include aorta + branches
=Close to heart so experiences greatest pressure as heart contracts
=Contracts = elastic tissue of arteries allows them to expand
=Relaxes: recoils
45
Muscular arteries
function
Has mostly smooth muscle in middle layer
Deliver blood to organs of body
46
where does blood pressure drop rapidly

51
what Carry blood to veins
venules
52
what returns blood to heart
veins
53
what is veins made of
joined venules
54
do veins experience high or low blood pressure
low
55
valves purpose
Prevent backflow
56
what happens if valves is damaged
blood ends up pulling in stretched veins
57
When LV contracts:
Surges pressure in arteries + forces their elastic walls to stretch
58
When LV relax:
Arteries recoil + push blood onward
59
blood pressure is measured in 2 numbers, what are they
Diastolic
Systolic
60
Systolic

104
5 steps of blood flow
1. RV -> LUNGS
2. LUNGS: gas exchange (loads O2 and unload CO2)
3. O2 from lung -> heart (LA) -> Aorta (by LV)
4. Aorta pumps blood to body tissues
5. Superior + Vena cava (blood returns to heart) and empty to -> RA
105
respiratory = where does gas exchange happen
occurs across respiratory surfaces (alveoli to pulmonary capillaries) via diffusion @ alveoli
106
Lungs function
Organ that allow gas exchange b/w air + blood
107
hyaline cartilage function
keep trachea open where O2 and CO2 go through
108
Trachea structure and function
Single large tube
Supported by rings of cartilage
carry air in and out of lungs
109
Bronchioles 2 types
Terminal
Respiratory
110
what does respiratory bronchioles do
Deliver air into alveoli (clusters of tiny sacs)
111
what is alveoli covered by
epithelium
112
O2 goes from alveoli into _
capillaries
113
CO2 diffuses from blood then _ and into _ and leaves__
CO2 diffuses from blood, across capillaries, and into alveoli, then it leaves alveoli and exhaled as air
114
what does diaphragm separate
chest cavity from abdominal
115
what happens to diaphragm in inhalation
Diaphragm moves down
Muscles b/w ribs contract
high air pressure
116
what happens to exhalation diaphragm
Chest wall + diaphragm returning to normal (relaxed) position (moves up_
No muscle contraction
low air pressure
117
When CO2 dissolves in water, what is formed
carbonic acid
118
exercising: Presence of weak acid lowers pH of blood
this causes diaphragm to contract faster and increase air and increase gas exchange
119
3 parts of upper respiratory

inflammation (swelling) of membranes lining sinuses + increase mucus production
127
