Hemolymph
Has heart, blood, blood vessels
Cardiovascular system
Composition of plasma
90% water, yellow straw colored, organic nutrients, wastes, hormones, and minerals
Inorganic salts, and blood proteins
Electrolytes
Protein - Deals with osmotic balance
Albumin
Fibrinogen is _____ fibrin is _____
Inactive, active
Fibrin deals with _____
Clotting
Blood consists of _____ which deal with defense
Immunoglobulins
Life span of RBC
120 days
Shape of RBC
Circular, biconcave, small
Do RBC have nuclei?
No but they have mitochondria
Where do RBC pick up O2?
In the alveoli of lungs
What does the O2 bond with when the RBC carry it?
Bonds to iron in hemoglobin and carries it to cells
After hemoglobin carries O2, diffusion occurs and does what?
Releases O2 and picks up CO2
Where are ribs, sternum, vertebrate, made?
Red bone marrow
WBC and larger than RBCs and have a _____ nucleus
Lobed
WBC have these 3 types
Monocytes, granulocytes, lymphocytes
Clean up tissues
Monocytes
Eat bacteria (65-75%)
Granulocytes
Three types of granulocytes, known as BEN cells
Basophil, esinophil, neutrophil
Fight disease; form antibodies
Lymphocytes
How are antibodies formed
From converting the immunoglobulins to antibodies
Small, non-cellular, plug leaks, aid in the clotting process
Platelets
Thromboplastin reacts with what to form thrombin?
Prothrombin and calcium
Thrombin changes fibrinogen to what?
Fibrin
Clotted blood under the skin
Bruise
Proteins on the surface of the RBC
Antigens
Proteins that specifically matches an antigen so that they can combine
Antibodies
Clumping reaction between an antigen and antibody; clotting
Agglutination reaction
Atria have _____ walls, while ventricles have _____ walls
Thinner, thicker
Sacs surrounding the heart
Pericardium
Divides the right and left sides of the heart
Septum
"Pacemaker"; controls the rate of contraction
SA Node
Where is the SA node?
In the right atrium wall; muscle and nerve tissue
Relays to ventricle after .1 second
AV Node
Strong, muscular, stretch, thick-walled, 3 layers of tissue. Carry blood away from heart
Arteries
Thin, less muscular, less elastic, no pressure, one way valves. Return blood to heart
Veins
What aids the blood returning through the veins?
Muscular contractions
Toward the heart = ?
De-oxygenated blood
What tissue layer makes up capillaries
Endothelium
What blood cells can pass through capillary wall to clean up tissues?
WBC
What is the lymphatic system?
The lymph filters through the lymph nodes which also attack viruses and bacteria; it returns leaked water and blood proteins
5 pathways of circulation
Pulmonary, systemic, coronary, renal, hepatic-portal
To lungs and back
Pulmonary
To other tissues and organs and back (Body)
Systemic
To the heart itself and back
Coronary
To kidneys and back
Renal
Through digestive organs to liver and back
Hepatic-portal
Tissue in the right atrium wall
SA Node
Where is the AV node located?
Near the middle of the heart
SA node causes _____ to contract and the AV node causes _____ to contract
SA Node : Atria
AV Node : Ventrioles
Pulse; number of heartbeats per minute
Heart Rate
Amount of blood pumped by the left ventricle each time it contracts
Stroke volume
Volume of blood per minute that the left ventricle pumps into systemic circuit; depends on heart rate and stroke volume
Cardiac output
Sequence of events during each heartbeat; last about .8 seconds
Heart Cycle
Heart muscle contracts to pump blood; higher number (top number)
Systole
Ventricles are filling with blood; lower number (bottom number)
Diastole
Hydroastatic force that blood exerts against a vessel wall
Blood pressure
Chest pains that occur when the heart receives insufficient O2
Angina pectoris
Blood clot that blocks blood vessels
Thrombus
Plaques develop on inner wall of arteries and narrow vessels (when plaque hardens)
Atherosclerosis
Respiratory medium for terrestrials and aquatic animals
Air for terrestrials, water for aquatic animals
Portion of the animal surface where gas exchange occurs (Gills, lungs, skin)
Respiratory surface
Where do protozoa exchange gases?
Over their entire surface
Flatworms and cnidarians have structures that allow plasma membrane to do what?
Contact outside surface through their skin
What are the respiratory surfaces like in larger animals?
Moist, single epithelial cell layers separating the respiratory medium from the blood or capillaries
Gill cover
Operculum
Operculum can be all over the body in theses
Echinoderms
Operculum can be in each segment in these
Earthworms
Pores in which air enters the trachea
Spiracles
Cartilage lined tube with epiglottis to cover it during swallowing
Trachea
Two branches of the trachea
Bronchi
Small sac at end of each bronchiole; surrounded by capillaries
Alveoli
Volume of air inhaled and exhaled with each breath during quiet normal breathing
Tidal volume
Maximum air volume inhaled and exhaled during forced breathing
Vital capacity
Amount of air remaining in lungs after forced exhalation
Residual volume
