75
Q

What are the three layers of blood vessels?

A
  1. Tunica Intima
  2. Tunica Media
  3. Tunica Externa
76
Q

Tunica Intima

A

simple squamous epithelium, very smooth

*deepest layer of blood vessel

77
Q

Tunica Media

A

smooth muscle

*middle layer of blood vessel

78
Q

Tunica Externa

A

connective tissue

*most superficial layer of blood vessel

79
Q

Blood vessels

A

profuse the tissues

80
Q

Arteries

A
  • carry oxygen rich blood AWAY from the heart
  • thicker walls (esp. tunica media)
  • smaller lumen (hollow passageway)
  • three types
81
Q

What are the three types of arteries?

A
  1. Elastic- near heart, large
  2. Muscular- supply organs, middle sized
  3. Arterioles- connect to capillaries, smallest
82
Q

Capillaries

A
  • bring oxygen and nutrients to surrounding tissues, pick up gas/wastes
  • good for diffusion
  • smallest vessels –> RBCs travel single file
83
Q

Veins

A
  • carry de-oxygenated blood TO the heart
  • thicker tunica externa
  • larger lumen
  • less elastic –> prone to collapse under pressure
  • increase in size closer to the heart
84
Q

Venous Return

A

returning of blood to the heart (usually against gravity)

  1. One-way valves- prevent back flow
  2. Muscular Pump- skeletal muscles squeeze veins during contraction
  3. Respiratory Pump- inhalation increases pressure on veins
85
Q

Varicose Veins

A

veins no longer straight because valve become incompetent, blood pools

86
Q

Anastomoses

A

network of interconnected arteries and veins (NOT capillaries) that provide alternate pathway for circulation
-found in joins and GI circulation
