Q

pulmonary circuit

A

right side of heart to the lungs to the left side of the heart

Q

systemic circuit of blood flow

A

blood flow everywhere other then lungs

blood flows in “parallel” (go through different capillary beds in the body)

venous side =volume reservoir

arterial side = pressure reservoir

Q

why have blood flow in parallel in the systemic circuit

A

freshest blood to each organ- blood will divide evenly from the right side of heart to different organs.

Not all blood goes to every organ, splits up the task to ensure oxygen gets everywhere

23
Q

semilunar valves are found ___

A

between the ventricles and arteries

aortic and pulmonary

24
Q

which valves in the heart do not have chordae tendineae?

A

semilunar (pulmonary and aortic)

pressure is less, do not need to be anchored

25
Q

___ directs blood from the vena cave ventrally towards the AV valves

A

intervenous tubercle

26
Q

trabeculae carneae are found within the ___ and are used to ___

A

ventricle walls

reduce turbulence

27
Q

cardiac skeleton

A

encircles valve openings and separates atria from ventricles

serves as an attachment site for valves and cardiac muscle

28
Q

parts of the cardiac skeleton can ___ especially in cows

A

ossify (trigone)

29
Q

___ provide a shortcut in conduction pathways in the heart

A

trabecula septomarginalis

(moderator bands)

30
Q

electrical activity in cardiac muscle is ___

A

myogenic

31
Q

in a normal heart beat, action potentials are initiated at the ___ node and travel ___

A

SA (sinoatrial node)

AV node down apex to perkinge fibers

32
Q

blood supply can be divided into two

A

nutritional blood: serves to nourish organ

functional blood: involved with the organ’s function

33
Q

what is the nutritional blood supply or the heart vs its function blood supply

A

coronary arteries

vena cava and pulmonary veins

34
Q

what is the nutritional blood supply or the lungs vs its function blood supply

A

bronchial arteries

pulmonary arteries

35
Q

what is the nutritional blood supply or the liver vs its function blood supply

A

hepatic artery

portal vein

36
Q

the groove between the ventricles on the front of the heart is the ___

A

paraconal groove

37
Q

the groove between the ventricles on the back of the heart is the ___

A

subsinuosal groove

38
Q

path of left coronary artery in left dominant heart

A

left coronary artery divides into paraconal interventricular branch and the circumflex branch which travels to back side of the heart and leads down into the subsinuosal interventricular branch

39
Q

what kind of animal has a left dominant heart?

A

ruminants and carnivore

left coronary artery → subsinuosal interventricular branch

40
Q

what kind of animal has a right dominant heart?

A

horses and pigs

right coronary artery → subsinuosal interventricular branch

41
Q

___ is determined by the coronary artery that supplies the subsinuosal interventricular branch

A

coronary dominance

(left or right)

42
Q

___ arteries feed the heart

A

coronary arteries

43
Q

vasculature helps:

A

regulate blood pressure

transport substances throughout the body

aids in homeostasis

44
Q

how does vasculature help with homeostasis?

A

temperature and water balance, will expand or contract to keep things in or allow things to leave

45
Q

arterial vessels will have more ___ then veins

A

smooth muscle

46
Q

___ supplies blood to walls of large vessels

A

vasa vasorum

47
Q

___ is returned to the blood stream via the thoracic and right lymphatic duct

A

48
Q

Lymph is picked up throughout the body and returns to blood stream at the ___

A

caudal vena cava

49
Q

tumor in lymphatic return would lead to

A

temperature conservation, solute balance, local hormone signaling

51
Q

52
Q

explain portal system

A

blood travels from one capillary bed straight to another capillary bed without first returning to the heart/pulmonary circuit

wants to carry nutrients/waste from one bed to another

carries stuff to the liver to be cleaned before returning to the heart
