Question 16

Answer 16

blood is the medium our body uses to carry dissolved gasses, ions, proteins, and nutrients, and wastes throughout the body

Question 17

general overview of the heart

Answer 17

• The heart is about the size of a clenched fist
• The heart consists of 4 chambers (two atria, two ventricles)
• The heart pumps blood into two circuits (pulmonary and systemic)
• Each circuit involves arteries: carries blood away from heart
• Veins: carries blood to the heart
• Capillaries: vessels that interconnect arteries and veins
• The anterior surface consists of the right atrium, right ventricle, and left ventricle
• The posterior surface consists of the left atrium and a small portion of the right atrium
• The diaphragmatic surface is composed of the right and left ventricles

Question 18

What is the base and apex of the heart?

Answer 18

The base is the superior border of the heart

The apex is the inferior portion of the heart

Question 19

What are the two different circuits that carry blood, and where do these circuits carry blood from and too?

Answer 19

Our HEART is the pump that pumps blood throughout two circuits, the pulmonary circuit which pumps deoxygenated blood to the lungs for the exchange of carbon dioxide from the blood to the alveoli, and oxygen from the lungs to the blood. Our systemic circuit is used to carry oxygenated blood to our body tissues.

Question 20

What is the function of the pericardium, what is the pericardial cavity?

Answer 20

The pericardium shields the heart by reducing external friction and acting as a barrier against extension of infection and malignancy.
Pericardial cavity surrounds the heart
The pericardial cavity is the space between the two serous layers and contains pericardial fluid

Question 21

What Is the name for the outer and inner layer of the serous pericardium?

Answer 21

An inner visceral layer, also called the epicardium, is attached to the surface of the heart
An outer parietal layer, which is adjacent to the fibrous pericardium

Question 22

what is pericardial fluid? What is the function of pericardial fluid?

Answer 22

Pericardial fluid lubricates the space to reduce friction
