A

Entrance and where blood flows into the heart

22
Q

What is the ventricle?

A

V-shape and sends bloof around the body by pumping

23
Q

What three chambers of the heart do amphibians have?

A

2 Atriums & Double pump system

24
Q

What is the capillary?

A

Single-cell thick, exchange of materials happens here

25
Q

What is insititial fluid?

A

Plasma from capillary

26
Q

What makes up blood?

A

o Red blood cells (Carry oxygen, hemoglobin red) (last 160 days)
o White blood cells (fight infection, kill) (last for years)
o Platelets (blood clotting)

27
Q

What is red bone marrow?

A

o Found in spongy bone.
o Makes red blood cells.
o Makes more red blood cells since it was last for less amount of time.

28
Q

What is stem cells?

A

o Found in blood
o Needs to be able to replicate and differentiate
o Replication done in mitosis
o Can be done until you are dead
o When the telomere of a chromosome is gone, no more mitosis.
o Have lots of tem until you are old

29
Q

What is an open circulatory system?

A

Blood is not fully contained within vessels, flows through open spaces called sinuses, organs covered in a fluid called hemolymph

30
Q

Where can you find an open circulatory system?

A

Found in crabs, insects, spiders, centipedes, slugs, clams, etc

31
Q

What happens when there is high blood pressure?

A

Fast delivery of oxygen
o Lots of ATP

32
Q

What is an artery?

A

Blood away from heart, thick elastic, muscle filled wall

33
Q

What is a vein?

A

Blood to the heart. Pressure disappears. Thin, floppy, lightly muscled wall

34
Q

What is diffusion?

A
  • Gases moving from high to low concentration
  • Greater the distance in concentration  faster the diffusion
35
Q

What causes CO2 to come out and O2 to come in?

A

Diffusion

36
Q

What do you have to have for a good respiratory surface?

A

Big surface area

37
Q

What is gastrulation?

A
  • Sphere of cells is a blastula
  • Some cells move inward during gastrulation
  • Produces a three-layer embryo
38
Q

What is the flap that separates the trachea from the digestive system?

A

Epiglottis

39

A

MC/R

50
Q
