Q

What does looping of the heart tube achieve? (4)

A
  • Primordium of right ventricle closest to outflow tract * Primordium of left ventricle closest to inflow tract * Atrium dorsal to bulbus cordus i.e. inflow is dorsal to outflow * Creates the transverse pericardial sinus \ arteries are in front of the veins

Q

What is C?

A

Left ventricle

17
Q

What is D?

A

Atria

18
Q

How does the atrium connect with the ventricle after looping?

A

Atrioventricular canal

19
Q

What does the atrioventricular canal drive?

A

Partioning of the heart

20
Q

What does the right atrium develop from?

A
  • Most of the primitive atrium * Absorption of the sinus venosus
21
Q

What does the left atrium develop from?

A
  • Small portion of the primitive atrium * Absorption of the proximal parts of the pulmonary veins (creates oblique pericardial sinus)
22
Q

What does the RA receive venous drainage from?

A

Receives venous drainage from Vena Cavae

Coronary Sinus

23
Q

Where does the LA receive oxygenated blood from?

A

receives oxygenated blood from the lungs

24
Q

Another exciting heart for you guys and gals to label What is A?

A

Superior vena cava

25
Q

What is C?

A

Inferior vena cava

26
Q

What is D?

A

Coronary sinus

27
Q

What is E?

A

Pulmonary veins

28
Q

Why does the foetus have two separate circulatory systems?

A

Lungs non-functional, so circulation must go through it

29
Q

How does foetus receive oxygen in utero?

A
  • Receives oxygenated blood from the mother via placenta and umbilical vein
30
Q

How does foetal circulation differ from developed?

A
  • Lungs by-passed by foetal circulatory shunts
  • Shunt to bypass the right ventricle and lungs
31
Q

Why must some blood be pumped by right ventricle, despite it being useless as lungs not in use?

A

As muscle must build strength via use

32
Q

What do early arterial systems begin as?

A

Early arterial system begins as a bilaterally symmetrical system of arched vessels which then undergo extensive remodelling to create the major arteries leaving the heart.

33
Q

What is the name of the shunt which bypasses lungs after blood has been pumped for right ventricle?

A

Ductus arteriosus

34
Q

What do the right and left 4th arches of the aortic arch become?

A
  • Right 4th arch > proximal part of the right subclavian artery * Left 4th arch > arch of the aorta
35
Q

What do the right and left arches of the 6th arch become?

A
  • Right 6th arch > right pulmonary artery * Left 6th arch > pulmonary artery & ductus arteriosus
36
Q

What is the nerve corresponding to the sixth aortic arch?

A

Reccurent laryngeal nerve

37
Q

What two factors influence the course of the laryngeal nerve on the right and left side?

A

–caudal shift of the developing heart & expansion of the developing neck region –the need for a fetal shunt between PT & aorta
