QUIZ Flashcards
Closed circulatory system
Cardiovascular system consists of strong muscular heart and blood
vessels
* Blood is always contained within vessels and normally never runs
freely through the body cavity
Three types of vessels
arteries, veins, and capillaries
Lymphatic system will___ returns it to blood
pick up excess tissue fluid
The heart ___ blood into ___
pumps, arteries
Arteries take oxygenated blood ___ from heart to ____ in the body where ___ exchange takes place
away, capillaries, gas
Human heart is ___
double pump
Double pump: right side pumps ____ blood to lungs
O2-Poor
Double pump: left side pumps ____ blood to the body
O2-Rich
___ separates
sides and prevents mixing.
Complete septum
two chambers
Atria (upper, thin-walled
chambers receiving blood)
Ventricles (lower, thick-walled
chambers pumping blood.)
Arteries take blood ___ from the heart.
Veins take blood __ the heart.
AWAY, TO
Valves ___ after blood moves through
them. Why?
close, * Keeps blood moving in one direction!
Atrioventricular (AV) valves are ____
between atria
and ventricles
tricuspid
right AV
bicuspid/mitral
left AV
Heart ____ is often due to ___ atrioventricular valve allowing blood to
___ back into atrium.
murmur, leaky, leak
Semilunar valves
between ventricles and
attached vessels, Aortic and Pulmonary
valves that take blood to the body and
lungs, respectively
Pulmonary circuit
Venae cavae (#11) bring O2-poor blood from the body to the right atrium (#1)
* Poor blood then goes Right atrium (#1) through right atrioventricular valve (the tricuspid valve)
into right ventricle (#2)
* Then through the Right ventricle through pulmonary semilunar valve (#3) into pulmonary trunk
and pulmonary arteries (#4)
* Then through Pulmonary arteries to the lungs (#5)
Systemic circuit
From lungs, pulmonary vein brings O2-rich blood to left atrium (#6)
* Left atrium through left atrioventricular valve (the bicuspid valve) into left ventricle (#7)
* Left ventricle through aortic semilunar valve into aorta (#9, #8 is a contraction)
* Aorta out to the tissues (#10)
