Q

Pulmonary vein

A

Returns blood to the heart when oxygenated by lungs. Normally(2 for each lung)

16
Q

Inferior vena cadaver

A

Carries deoxygenated blood in lower part of body to right atrium runs along right side of vertebral column

17
Q

Renal artery

A

Branched off abdominal aorta circulation blood to the kidneys may be more than one artery for each kidney. Able to circulate 1/3 blood each pump in kidneys.

18
Q

Location of renal vein and artery

A

Artery located above the veins

19
Q

Renal vein

A

Collects purified blood from kidneys and flows to inferior vena cava divided into 2 branches inside kidney anterior and posterior

20
Q

Abdominal aorta

A

4th segment of aorta. Circulated to all organs and to the abdominal walls branches into common iliac arteries

21
Q

Common iliac artery

A

Circulated blood to lower limbs and pelvis

Split into the internal and external iliac arteries at hip

22
Q

Internal iliac artery

A

Supplies pelvis, genitals, buttock, and inner thigh also bladder

23
Q

Femoral artery

A

Continuation of external iliac artery runs along the femur provides blood to thigh then splits to become superficial femoral artery, then much later named the popliteal artery

24
Q

Femoral vein

A

Receives from thighs and saphenous vein, among others. Accompanys artery in femoral sheath. Continuation of popliteal vein becomes the external iliac vein as well

25
Q

Great saphenous vein(GSV)

A

Longest vein in the body!!!
Collects from leg and thigh, foot.
Originates at big toe merges with dorsal venous in arch, runs up medial side of leg runs over media epicondyle of femur at knee. Forms an arch in thigh where in merges with common femoral vein

26
Q

Anterior tibial artery

A

Runs along front of leg to dorsal artery of foot.
supply’s blood to extensors, anterior compartment of leg and dorsal surface of foot from popliteal artery. Accompanied by anterior tibial vein becomes dorsalis pedis artery at ankle
