Unit 4c- Hearts Flashcards
Fish-
Undivided circulatory system
gills between heart and systemic circulation
-4 chambers in series
-suction bump in elasmobranchs
-pressure drop across gills - BP higher in systemic system
—-requires high pressure
—gills must be able to withstand high pressure
elasmobranchs
- suction pump = non compliant pericardium
- exit is guarded by a pair of flap valves
Lung fish and air breathing fish
nearly complete functional separation of oxy and deoxy blood
-partial atomical separation-partial septum in atrium, ventricle, spirul folds in bulbus
Amphibians and reptiles
near complete functional separation of oxy and deoxy blood
- atria completely separated
- variable degree of atomical separation
- same imput pressure to pulmonary and systemic circulations
- adjustable distribution of blood flow to lungs vs. body
Amphibians
- single ventricle with some separation achieved by spiral fold in conus arteriosus
- SPIRAL FOLD, RIGH AND LEFT PULMOCUTANEOUS ARTERY, CONUS ARTERIOUSUS
non-crocodilian reptile
partial division of ventricles by incomplete muscular septum
-HORIZONTAL SEPTUM, VERTICAL SEPTUM
Crocodiles
-fully divided ventricles, but blood vessles connected by foramen of panizza and anastomosis caudal to heart
pressure differences influence flow
Birds and mammals
- 4 chambers, 2 parallel hearts
- righs side: pulmonary circulation
- left side: systemic circulation (thicker)
- complete double circulation
- valves separate atria and ventricles
- allows different imput pressures to pulmonary and systemic circulations
- requeares equal total blood flow through pulmonary and systemic circulation
