Unit 3: Chapter 9 Flashcards
The circulatory system works with the pulmonary system. This term is called.
cardiopulmonary or cardiorespirtory
Purpose of the cardiopulmonary:
- Transports Oxygen and Nutrients to tissues
- Removes Carbon Dioxide Wates from tissues (so you don’t become acidic)
- Regulation of body temperature
(When you sweat)
What are two major adjustments in blood flow during exercise:
- ___Cardiac output
- Redistribution of ___ from inactive organs to active muscles.
Increase; blood flow
What is the progression of blood from the heart to the body?
Heart
Arteries and arterioles
Capillaries
Veins and Venules
What does the heart do?
Creates pressure to pump blood
What does Arteries and arterioles do?
- Carry blood away form the heart.
- Controls blood distribution by dilating/constricting arterioles.
(Opens paths or closes them to direct blood)
What does Capillaries do?
- Exchange of Oxygen and Carbone dioxide
- Exchange of nutrients
What do Veins and Venules do?
- Carry blood toward the heart under minimal pressure
(That’s why they have valves)
Pulmonary Circuit vs. Systemic Circuit
Pulmonary circuit (Lung circulation)
—) Right side of heart
—) Pulmonary arteries Pump deoxygenated blood to the lungs
—) The Pulmonary veins Return oxygenated blood to the left side of the heart
Systemic Ciruct (whole-body circulation)
—) Left side
—) The arteries pump oxygenated blood to the whole body
—) Returns deoxygenated blood to the right side of the heart
Pulmonary Circuit
It pumps the blood to the ___ side of the heart.
The ____ Pumps __ blood to the___
The ___ Return ____ blood to the___ side of the heart
left
Pulmonary arteries; deoxygenated; lungs
Pulmonary veins; oxygenated; left
Systemic Ciruct
It pumps the blood to the ___ side of the heart.
—) The __ pumps ___ blood to the ____
—) Returns ___ blood to the __ side of the heart
Left side
arteries; oxygenated; whole body
deoxygenated; right
What is the heart muscle tissue called?
What are the 3 layers?
Myocardium
1) Epicardium (protects heart from outside)
2) Myocardium (Muscle man)
3) Endocardium. (Protects the heart from inside)
Where does the heart get blood from?
What does the heart need from the blood?
coronary arteries;
oxygen and nutrients
Is the heart anaerobic or aerobic?
aerobic
—Because it beats constantly
What is a Myocardial infarction (MI)
When the coronary arteries get blocked.
Which can result in cell damage and death of cells
What protects against heart damage?
Exercise
Where is Epicardum? What does it do?
Outer Layer
Function:
–Serves as a lucrative outer covering
—Reduces friction
Where is Myocardium? What does it do?
Middle
It makes the muscles contract. And it ejects blood from the heart
Where is the Endocardium? What does it do?
It protects the inner layer of the heart, …….
Heart Muscle vs. Skeletal Muscle
How do muscles contract?
Heart: Centrical proteins ( Actin and Myosin)
Skeltaltal: Centrical proteins
Heart Muscle vs. Skeletal Muscle
What do they look like? SHape of fibers? Nusclei?
Heart—Short & Branching
Skeletal……..
Heart Muscle vs. Skeletal Muscle
Cellular Junction?
Heart: Has intercalated disks
Skeletal: none
Heart Muscle vs. Skeletal Muscle
Energy Production
Heart —Aerobic (Primarily)
Skeletal —Aerobic and anaerobic
Heart Muscle vs. Skeletal Muscle
Neural Control
Heart—Involuntary
Skeletal—Voulontary
Heart Muscle vs. Skeletal Muscle
Regeneration potentfail
Heart—No regeneration
Skeletal—Some regeneration by satellite cells
How does Exercise help your heart?
1) It ___ of heart attacks
2) Improves ____ from a heart attack
reduces;
Survival
Exercise reduces the amount of ______ from a heart attack.
How?
Myocardial damage
1) improves heart antioxidant capacity
2) Improves function …….
Systole vs. Diastole
Systole—Pumping
Diastoel—Filling
