Q

arteriole anastomosis

A

the fusion of collateral arteries in areas that require constant flow blood

Q

eschemia anastomosis example

A

def: lack of bloody supply

if an anastomosis is blocked, it can result in necrosis

although, smaller branch blockages can be survivable

Q

where is most of the blood volume stored?

A

65-70% of the blood volume is stored in the veins

this is because the veins can distend far more than arteries

70
why does all veinous blood from the abdominal viscera go to the liver
to metabolize toxic substances from the tissue the liver has dual circulation
71
fetal circulation structures
1. foramen ovale 2. ductus arteriosus 3. ductus venosus
72
foramen ovale
connects the right and left atria closes when the baby takes its first breadth becomes the fossa ovalis

ductus arteriosus
connects the pulmonary trunk and aorta becomes the ligamentum arteriosum
74
ductus venosus
bypasses the liver (bc it's non functional) and carries metabolism to the placenta becomes the ligamentum venosum
75
ASD
atrial septal defect foramen ovale doesn't close
76
VSD
ventricular septum defect
77
PDA
patent ductus arteriosus doesn't close
78
atherosclerosis
due plaque deposits in the blood vessels
79
arteriosclerosis
changes in blood vessel walls you age becomes harder, resulting in a slight increase in BP loss of elasticity
