Q

4 functions of the heart

A
  • separates atria and ventricles
  • anchors heart valves

Q

deoxygenated blood flow

A

vena cava
right atrium
tricuspid valve
right ventricle
pulmonary valve
pulmonary arteries
pulmonary capillaries (switches to oxygenated)

26
Q

oxygenated blood flow

A

pulmonary veins
left atrium
mitral valve
left ventricle
aortic valve
aorta
systemic circulation (systemic arteries, capillaries (switches), then veins)

27
Q

arteries

A

carry blood away from the heart

28
Q

2 types of arteries

A

elastic: near heart (aorta)
muscular: autonomic nervous system (arterioles)

29
Q

major arteries

A

aorta (oxygenated)
pulmonary artery (deoxygenated)

30
Q

capillaries

A

microscopic blood vessels from branching arterioles; walls: gas and nutrient exchange occurs

31
Q

veins

A

carry blood toward the heart; venules: fluid exchange; gravity: valves prevent back flow (one way)

32
Q

major veins

A

vena cava (deoxygenated)
pulmonary veins (oxygenated)

33
Q

blood flow

A

heart - arteries - arterioles - capillaries - venules - veins - heart

34
Q

pulse

A

stretch and recoil of artery with every ventricular contraction

35
Q

superficial arteries

A

small: femoral
large: coccygeal
horse: mandibular, digital
cow: facial

36
Q

cephalic vein location

A

elbow to carpus

37
Q

iliac artery and vein location

A

where aorta and caudal vena cava bifurcate

38
Q

femoral artery and vein location

A

name changes at abdominal wall

39
Q

lateral saphenous vein location

A

lateral hindlimb between hock and stifle

40
Q

respiratory system main function

A

bring in oxygen from outside and get rid of carbon dioxide

41
Q

respiratory system secondary functions (4)

A
  • voice production
  • body temp regulation
  • acid-base balance
  • sense of smell
42
Q

upper respiratory system

A

not lungs
- nostrils
- nasal cavity
- pharynx
- larynx
- trachea

43
Q

lower respiratory system

A

lungs and bronchi
- bronchi
- lungs
- bronchioles
- alveolar ducts
- alveoli

44
Q

hilius

A

where air, blood, lymph, and nerves enter

45
Q

other structures included in respiratory system

A

mediastinum
diaphragm
pleura
intercostal muscles

46
Q

pleura

A

covers structures and inner walls of thoracic cavity

47
Q

intercostal muscles

A

muscles between ribs

48
Q

external respiration

A

lungs; exchange between air and blood

49
Q

internal respiration

A

body; exchange between blood and cells/tissues

50
Q

breathing =

A

inspiration and expiration

51
Q

how does breathing occur (4)

A
  • partial vacuum within thorax
  • pulls lungs tightly out against thoracic wall
  • allows lungs to follow movements of thoracic wall and diaphragm
  • air passively enters and exits with changes of thoracic volume
52
Q

inspiration

A
  • increases thoracic cavity size
  • diaphragm contracts becoming flat
  • external intercostal muscles rotate ribs up and out
53
Q

expiration

A
  • decreases thoracic cavity size
  • abdominal muscles push organs against diaphragm to get dome back
  • internal intercostal muscles rotate ribs backwards
54
Q

pharynx

A
  • where respiratory and digestive cross
  • divided by soft palate
  • pathway for air
55
Q

larynx

A
  • control of airflow to and from lungs (changes size of glottis)
  • prevention of inhalation of foreign objects (epiglottis covers opening)
56
Q

trachea

A
  • air pathway
  • filters debris out and moves to larynx
57
Q

bronchial tree

A

airway pathway
- continues filtering
- autonomic nervous system changes diameter to aid breathing needs

58
Q

alveoli

A
  • thin-walled sacs surrounded by capillaries
  • for external respiration
59
Q

nasal passage

A
  • condition inhaled air
  • warming, humidifying, filtering
60
Q

endothelium

A

inner layer of blood vessels

61
Q

pericardium

A

lines chambers of heart

62
Q

afferent never fibers

A

carry sensations toward CNS
