functions to transport blood and respiratory gases, Protection and combat hemorrhage Includes the blood,heart,blood vessels,

A

Cardiovascular System

responsible for transporting nutrients to and wast products from cells, includes RBCs(erthrocytes), WBC’s (Leukocytes) and platelets (thrombocytes) 5L total

A

Blood

24
Q

known as red blood cells, makes up more than 90% of blood volume is to transport oxygen to cells does not have a nucleus lives about 120 days, bioconcave, hemoglobin helps with

A

Erthrocytes

25

known as platelets, helps with coagulations and clot formation

A

Thrombocytes

27
Q

straw colored fluid that helps transports blood cells includes fibrinogen and fibrin both aid in clotting

A

28
Q

hollow muscular organ about the size of a clenched fist located in mediastinum area , surrounded by the pericardium right side pumps oxygen depleted blood 72 bpm healthy hear average Involves three layers myocardium(thickest layer), endocardium (thin, inner lining), epicardium (thin outer layer)

A

heart

29
Q

Right and left arias superior takes blood through large veins and pump it to the inferior chambers separated by interatrial septum; right and left ventricles pumping chambers of the heart pump blood to the body’s organs and tissues separated by interventricular septum

A

Heart Chambers

30
Q

atrioventricular valves: allows blood to flow into the ventricles; bicuspid(mitral valve) located b/t the left atrium and left ventricle tricuspid valve (right av valve)located between the right/left atrium and ventricle

Semilunar valves: allow blood to flow out of te ventricles into the aorta and pulmonary trunk includes the: aortic valve(left semilunar valve) located b/t the left ventricle and aorta, pulmonary valve (right semilunar valve) located between the pulmonary trunk and the right ventricle

Heart Sounds

lubb-dubb

lub:first pitch av valves close, dubb sv close extras are murmurs

31
Q

What is the cardiac flow:

SVC-RA-TV-RV-PV-L/R PA-lungs-L atrium-mv-LV-AV-Aorta anddescending aort-body

A

Cirlculation of Heart

32
Q

Arteries-blood vessels carry blood away from the heart

Aertioles-small arteries

Veins-carry blood toward the heart

Veinoles-small veins

Capllaries-small blood vessels that connect arteriioles and venules; where exchange of gases,nutruients,wastes and hormones

A

Blood Vessels

33
Q

Includes the SA node, Av node and purkinje fibers

SA Node natural pacemaker 60-100bpm

SA-AV-Purkinje fibers

Cardiac Cycle: systole: ventricles contract and eject blood

diastole: ventricles relax and fill the blood

Heart Rate 60-80 or 7s

Stroke Volume: amount of blood pumped from the left ventricle with each beat, determines cardiac output correlates with cardiac function

Cardiac Output: product of stroke volume times the heart rate average 5L increases with exercise 20L

Name the four functions of the respiratory system

37
Q

Nose, Nasal Cavity,sinuses, pharynx and larynx

Nose: entry for air, anterior or external nares

Nasal Cavatities: seperated by the septum; upper portion called conchae, between the conchae is the meatus

Cilia: hair in nose Olfaction sense of smell

Sinuses:Frontal,Sphenoidal, Ethmoidal and Maxillary

Pharynx or throat-nasopharynx-oropharynx-larygopharynx

Larynx: voice box

A

38
Q

Trachea(windpipe,below the adam’s apple,9-10 inches long has 6-21 hyaline cartilages split into r/l bronchi)

Bronchi/Bronchioles: r/l bronchi is air conduction passage ways; righ is larger easier for aspiration

Alveioli: gas exchange takes place, surfactant is at

Lungs: lungs of respiration

Diaphragm: dome shaped muscle seperates teh thoracic cavity from the abdominal cavity; moves downward during inhalation upward exhalation

A

Parts of Lower Respiratory Tract
