Topic 12 - Circulatory Route Flashcards
circulatory routes
closed, double circulation
closed = ?
blood confined to heart and blood vessels
circulatory routes
closed, double circulation
double = ?
2 routes (pulmonary + systemic)
Name the 3 types of circulations in the adult circulation
- pulmonary circulation
- systemic circulation
- coronary circulation (visible externally)
pulmonary circulation
step 1:
right ventricle to lungs via pulmonary arteries (deoxy blood)
pulmonary circulation
step 1: right ventricle to lungs via pulmonary arteries (deoxy blood)
step 2:
pick up oxygen in lungs via capillaries
pulmonary circulation
step 1: right ventricle to lungs via pulmonary arteries (deoxy blood)
step 2: pick up oxygen in lungs via capillaries
step 3:
lungs to left atria via pulmonary veins (oxygenated blood)
pulmonary circulation
starts at the:
right ventricle (deoxy blood)
pulmonary circulation:
from the right ventricle to
pulmonary arteries (deoxy blood)
pulmonary circulation:
from pulmonary arteries to
capillaries in respiratory portion of lungs (oxy blood)
pulmonary circulation:
from capillaries in respiratory portion of lungs to
pulmonary veins (oxy blood)
pulmonary circulation:
from pulmonary veins to
left atrium
Systemic circulation
step 1:
left ventricle to organs via aorta (oxygenated)
systemic circulation
step 1: left ventricle to organs via aorta (oxygenated)
step 2:
organs remove oxygen via capillaries
systemic circulation
step 1: left ventricle to organs via aorta (oxygenated)
step 2: organs remove oxygen via capillaries
step 3:
organs to right atrium via superior + inferior vena cava (deoxygenated)
overall route of systemic circulation
and name the subdivisions
cerebral =
heptatic =
coronary =
left ventricle to right atrium = systemic circulation
subdivisions
cerebral = brain
heptatic = liver
coronary = heart
