The Arterial, Venous, And Lymphatic System Flashcards
Colloid
Any glue like or jelly like substance as gelatin, starch, raw egg, that diffuses not at all or very slowly through vegetable and animal membrane
Interstitial
Pertaining to a spaced in tissues or between structures or cells
Thrombus
A blood clot formed in a vessel or in a heart chamber
Pulmonary System
The portion of circulation that carries blood to and from the lungs
Systematic system
That portion of the circulation that carries blood to and from most tissue of the body
Portal system
A specialized region of the circulation consisting of two capillary beds directly connected by a set of blood vessels
Functions of blood vessels
Conduct blood: all classifications are involved in conducting blood
Control blood flow: certain classifications are involved by dilation and or constricting
Facilitate Transfer Of Nutrients: translocation: only one vessel involved in this…capillaries
Translocation of Fluids
Hydrostatic Pressure: the pressure exerted by a stationary column of fluid in a tube
Osmotic Pressure: the pressure that exactly opposes a given concentration gradient
Thoracic Aorta-coronary artery
Produces oxygen rich blood to heart
Thoracic Aorta-brachiocephalic trunk
Left and right brachial arteries: oxygen for shoulder and front limbs
Bi carotid trunk: provides blood for head
Thoracic Aorta-vertebral arteries
Blood to individual arteries
Thoracic Aorta-intercostal arteries
Internal and external crustal muscles
Respiration for skeletal muscle
Thoracic Aorta-phrenic artery
Blood for diaphragm: connective tissue and skeletal muscle
Respiration
Abdominal Aorta-celiac artery
Gastric artery: stomach
Splenic artery: spleen
Hepatic artery: liver
Pancreatic artery: pancreas
Sends oxygen rich to these organs
Abdominal Aorta-cranial mesenteric artery
Blood to small intestine and first part of large intestine
Abdominal Aorta-renal arteries
Paired arteries for the kidney
Abdominal Aorta-caudal mesenteric artery
Blood to remainder of large intestine
Abdominal Aorta-adrenal artery
Blood to adrenal glands
Abdominal Aorta-testicular/ovarian
Blood to testies and ovaries
Abdominal Aorta-caudal termination of aorta
Internal illiac arteries: medial
External illiac arteries: lateral
Internal pudental arteries: mid-uterin arteries (blood to uterus) accessory gland prostate
External pudental arteries: becomes femoral arteries ( legs), have mammary arteries (ABC AND TBC) provides blood to scrotum
Caudal arteries: midline to tail
Major systemic venous routes-cranial vena cava
Collects blood from the following
External, and interns, jugular veins (head and neck)
Brachial veins: shoulder and limbs
Major systemic venous routes-caudal vena cava
Forms at last lumbar and first sacral
Formed by external and internal illiac veins and cadual veins
Major systemic venous routes-coronary veins(sinus)
Brings blood back to heart muscle
Blood flow to and from the cow udder-arterial route
External pudendal arteries (mammary arteries)
Milk well: ties into internal thoracic vein and then cranial vena cava
