Dogfish 2 Flashcards
shiny epithelium lining heart cavity
Parietal pericardium
shiny epithelium covering heart
visceral pericardium
tissue separating pleuroperitoneal and pericardial cavities
transverse septum
chambers of heart
sinus venosus, atrium, ventricle, conus arteriosus
receives blood from heart, specifically conus arteriosus
ventral aorta
blood passes through these on its way to being oxygenated at gills (5 pairs)
afferent branchial arteries
carries blood away from gills, 4 pairs, pass dorseromedially into dorsal aorta
efferent branchial arteries
on roof of pharynx, supplies most of body with blood
dorsal aorta
first major paired branches of dorsal aorta
subclavian artery
arise from efferent branchial arteries, pass anteriorly and then join hyoidean artery
paired dorsal aortae
branching off paired dorsal aorta just anterior to first efferent branchial artery
hyoidean artery
internal carotid extends anteriorly and branches into this artery at level of spiracle, artery extends into chondrocranium
stapedial artery
union of hyoidean and paired dorsal arteries forms
internal carotid artery
first branch of dorsal aorta, continues posteriorly along right side of stomach
celiac artery
anterior one of two arteries that arise close together at the level of the spleen
anterior mesenteric artery
extension of anterior mesenteric artery onto intestine
posterior mesenteric artery
final paired branches of dorsal aorta, at level of cloaca, pass posterolaterally dorsal to kidneys toward pelvic fins
iliac artery
branches of iliac artery that separate before extending into pelvic fins
femoral artery
large vein that lies along the anterior part of the bile duct, confluence of 3 main vessels
hepatic portal vein
drains each side of the head and branchial region
anterior cardinal sinus
each posterolateral corner of the sinus venosus leads through this short but large vessel which receives blood from many main vessels and takes blood back to heart
common cardinal vein
lies dorsolateral to esophagus, large space bounded by a thin walled membrane, curves toward dorsal midline
posterior cardinal sinus
narrowing of posterior cardinal sinus, lateral to dorsal aorta
posterior cardinal vein
extends anteriorly along ventrolateral body wall
lateral abdominal vein
passes anteriorly through hemal arches of vertebrae
caudal vein
bifurcation of caudal vein
renal portal vein
lateral outer portion of the eye modified so that it is transparent
cornea
outer portion of eye that is not part of cornea
sclera
pigmented structure visible through cornea
iris
circular opening at centre of iris
pupil
hard spherical structure inside eye ball
lens
pigmented tissue that attaches to lens
cilliary body
dark tissue internal to sclera
choroid
light coloured layer internal to choroid
retina
space housing eyeball
orbit
nerve passing anteroposteriorly along dorsomedial wall of orbit
superficial ophthalmic nerve
pass posterolaterally from anteromedial wall of orbit
dorsal and ventral oblique muscles
radiate towards eyeball from posteromedial wall of orbit
dorsal, medial, lateral, and ventral rectus muscles
provides support for eyeball
optic pedicle
thin whitish strand passing anteroposteriorly through orbit and adhering to medial surface of eyeball
deep ophthalmic nerve
thick, extending from medial wall of orbit laterally to eyeball
optic nerve
ventral to ventral rectus muscle, thick nerve passing anteriorly, meets anteroventral orbital wall and subdivides
infraorbital nerve
passes anteromedially across floor of orbit where infraorbital nerve subdivides
preorbitalis muscle
just ventral to deep ophthalmic nerve, passes almost immediately ventrally around ventral rectus
oculomotor nerve
nerve that passes to dorsal oblique muscle
trochlear nerve
lies on posterior wall of orbit almost directly posterior to lateral rectus muscle extending laterally
mandibular nerve
ducts of the ear
Anterior, posterior, and lateral semicircular ducts
large triangular sac like structure extends between ducts
sacculus
two cylindrical chambers closely associated with sacculus
anterior and posterior utriculi
third nerve arising from anterior medulla just behind auricles of cerebellum, innervates ear
statoacoustic nerve
extends dorsally from sacculus and reaches exterior of head through pores
endolymphatic duct
thin strand like structure extending anteriorly from the epithalamus
epiphysis
nerve arising from ventral surface of medulla passing anterolaterally to innervate lateral rectus muscle
abducens nerve
first nerve arising from anterior medulla just behind auricles of cerebellum, divides into 4 nerves at orbit
trigeminal nerve
arises posterior to statoacoustic nerve extending into first pharyngeal slit
glossopharyngeal nerve
arises from fan like rootlets just posterior to glossopharyngeal nerve
vagus nerve
extend laterally from spinal cord
spinal nerves
most anterior part of brain, paired, narrow posteriorly
olfactory bulbs
posterior to olfactory tracts
epithalamus
side of epithalamus
thalamus
floor of epithalamus
hypothalamus
cavity in left cerebral hemisphere
third ventricle
cavity in right cerebral hemisphere
lateral ventricle
paired rounded structure posterior epithalamus
optic lobes
partially overhangs optic lobes, looks like it has 4 lobes
cerebellum
project on both sides of cerebellum
auricles
posterior part of brain that narrows into the spinal cord
medulla oblongata
cavity of medulla
fourth ventricle
