types of circulatory systems
NO circulatory system:
sponge
hydra
nematode
OPEN circulation:
grasshopper
CLOSED circulation
earthworm
heart
fish heart and circulation
2 pumping chambers
low blood pressure past gills
amphibian heart and circulation
3 chambered heart
potential for mixing
reptile circulation
-septum
=incomplete in most
=complete in crocodiles
heart contraction
cardiac cycle order:
-sinoatrial node impulse
-atria beat
-atrioventricular node impulse
-purkinje fibers conduct signal through septum
-ventricles beat
capillaries
-oxygen, nutrient, carbon dioxide and wast transfer
-regulate heat exchange via vasoconstriction and vasodilation
