Circulatory Systems 1 Flashcards
Three diversities of the circulatory system
None, open, closed
Open system
Blood (hemolymph) does not always remain inside a vascularized system. No veins. The heart has holes that suck in the hemolymph when the chamber expands. When the heart expands, blood is pushed out through the arteries. Blood flow may also be bidirectional
Closed system
Blood remains separate from interstitial fluid. Stay inside capillaries. It flows unidirectionally entering heart through veins exiting through arteries.
Back flow is prevented through …
one way valves
Blood delivers … from the lungs/gills to the … and removes …
oxygen, tissues, CO2
Vertebrates red blood cells are called … containing … which help transport …
erythrocytes, hemoglobin, oxygen through the bloodstream
The blood also delivers … which is absorbed by the gut through blood plasma
nutrients
Blood removes … from metabolizing tissues excreted from the kidney
nitrogenous waste products
Leucocytes (White blood cells) (Lymphocytes, Monocytes, Granulocytes)
protect body from diseases
Diffusion rate decreases when …, … and …. decreases
temperature, concentration, surface area
Diffusion rate decreases when … and … increases
particle size and distance
Bulk Flow
Fixes the problem of long distance diffusion in larger animals.
Poriferans (Sponges)
Water enters the body cavity (spongocoel) and is directed out the osculum by beating flagella in the choanocytes
Poriferans (Sponges) Bulk Flow
Water enters the body cavity (spongocoel) and is directed out the osculum by beating flagella in the choanocytes
Cnidarians Bulk Flow
have tidal flow of water; it enters and exits the gastrovascular cavity through the mouth, driven by muscular contractions of the body.
Platyhelminthes (flatworms) Bulk Flow
contract a muscular pharynx to propel fluid through their gastrovascular cavity
tidal flow
meaning the fluid leaves the same opening from which it came
Tunicates
Function similarly to sponges and cnidarians but actually have circulatory systems
True or False: Echinoderms and Nematodes have circulatory systems
False. They have water vascular systems. The body moves in a way that moves the interstitial fluid bringing nutrients to other regions and providing exchange of gases
Echinoderms
Ringed central canal, radial canals, and ampullae that open ventrally into the tube feet on the ventral (oral) side that have suction power.
Madreporite
Opening in dorsal side of starfish where seawater enters
Pseudocoel
A nematodes gut wall that absorbs nutrients.
Peristaltic Contraction (some invertebrate hearts and early vertebrate embryos)
The smooth muscle of a blood vessel contracts in a wave unidirectionally pushing the fluid along
External Muscular Pump
Acts as external pumps. Squeezing the vessel and increasing pressure of fluid. Relaxation is periodically needed to allow blood to flow through the vessel.
Contractile chamber
Contraction of muscular walls of a closed chamber decreases its volume, increasing pressure of fluid.
Arthropods and mollusks have
open circulatory systems
In open circulatory systems blood is sometimes stored not in the vessels but instead within a sinus called the …
hemocoel
Crustaceans have a … circulatory system
semi-closed
Hemocyanin
Makes blood blue in crustaceans. (So not hemoglobin like what mammals have)
Vertebrates, cephalopods, and most annelids have
closed circulatory systems
Although fish have closed circulatory systems, they only have
one circuit
