Q

If the mitral valve does not close properly, how would it affect cardiovascular function?

A

Cardiovascular function would be reduced.

Blood flows backwards when valve is closed - making it harder for the heart to work properly

Q

What is another term for anastomoses?

A

collateral circulation

17
Q

What is the function of anastomoses (collateral circulation) of the coronary circulation?

A

Develops slowly as we age to create alternating pathways for the blood to flow through the coronary arteries in case of a blockage.

Helps for protection in older adults in heart attack

18
Q
