Q

Open circulatory system

A

blood bathes the organs directly
there is no distinction between blood and interstitial fluid
arthropods, insects, and most molluscs

Q

White blood cells

18
Q

How many blood cells are leukocytes

19
Q

Two types of leukocytes

A

Granular leukocytes

Agranular leukocytes

20
Q

Granular leukocytes

A

Neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils

21
Q

Agranular leukocytes

A

Monocytes and lymphocytes

22
Q

where do blood cells develop

A

from pluripotent stem cells

23
Q

Hemotopoiesis

A

blood cell production

24
Q

Where does hematopoiesis occur

25
2 types of stem cells
Lymphoid stem cell | Myeloid stem cell
26
Lymphoid stem cell
Lymphocytes
27
myeloid stem cell
all other blood cells | Erythropoietin
28
Erythropoietin
stimulates the production of erythrocytes
29
Arteries
branch into arterioles and carry blood to capillaries
30
capillary beds
networks of capillaries | are the sites of chemical exchange between the blood and interstitial fluid
31
Venules
converge into veins and return blood from capillaries to the heart
32
How many chambers are there in vertebrate hearts
two or more
33
blood enters through the
atrium
34
blood is pumped out through a
ventricle
35
Single circulation
bony fishes, ray, and sharks have single circulation with a two-chambered heart
36
In single circulation, blood leaving the heart
passes through two capillary beds before returning
37
Double circulation
amphibians, reptiles, and mammals have double circulation | oxygen-poor and oxygen-rich blood are pumped separately from the right and left sides of the heart
38
Capillaries
have thin walls, the endothelium plus its basement membrane to facilitate the exchange of materials
39
Arteries and veins
have an endothelium, smooth muscle, and connective tissue
40
Arteries and veins differences
Arteries have thicker walls than veins to accommodate the high pressure of blood pumped from the heart
41
What happens in veins
blood flows back to the heart mainly as a result of muscle action
