Q

describe the IMPORTANT DIFFERENCES between ARTERIES and VEINS

A

ARTERIES:

  • they RUN DEEP

VEINS:

  • run BOTH DEEP + SUPERFICIAL

DEEP VEINS;

have the same name as their CORRESPONDING ARTERY

SUPERFICIAL VEINS;

they do NOT share the same name with their corresponding artery

41
Q

function of UMBILICAL VEINS and ARTERIES

A

function to help CIRCULATE BLOOD TO AND FROM the PLACENTA

  • PLACENTA and the UMBILICAL CORD obtain oxygen during fetal development–as lungs are not completely developed yet

Q

describe the DEVELOPMENT OF BLOOD VESSELS

A
  • arises from MESODERMAL CELLS–collection of masses known as BLOOD ISLANDS
43
Q

the VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTOR

44
Q
