Diffusion

- Its time is proportional to the square of the distance


- Only efficient over small distances

Fluid-Filled Circulatory System

In small/thin animals, cells can exchange materials directly with the surrounding medium

Gastrovascular Cavity

- Functions in both digestion and distribution of substances throughout the body


- Body wall that encloses this is only two cells think


Ex: Flatworms with a large surface area to volume ratio, Cnidarians

Open Circulatory System

- Hemolymph that bathes body cells like a bathtub; organs are very porous


- Lower hydrostatic pressure, less costly in energy expenditure

Closed Circulatory System

- Not necessarily more complex than the other type of circulatory system


- Separate lymphatic and circulatory system


- Circulatory fluid is confined to vessels


- Relatively high blood pressure to allow effective O2 and nutrient delivery


Ex: Annelids, cephalopods, vertebrates

Single Circulation

- Blood leaving the heart passes through two capillary bed before returning


Ex: Bony fishes, rays, sharks have this type of circulation with two chambered heart

Capillaries

Anytime blood hits the ____________, its flow slows down and loses pressure.

Double Circulation

- Exclusive feature of tetrapods since terrestrial animals have more O2 availability


- Increases delivery system, systemic capillaries receive high pressure blood


- Maintains higher blood pressure in organs

Endothermy

Goes hand in hand with double circulation

Pulmonary (Reptiles and Mammals)


Pulmocutaneous (Amphibians)

The circuit besides the systemic circuit where oxygen-poor blood picks up O2 in lungs.




2 Types, and the types of animals in which they can be found

Amphibians

- Ridge within ventricle diverts most (90%) of O2rich blood from left atrium into system circuit and most of the O2 poor bloodfrom right atrium into pulmocutaneous circuit


- 2 Atria and 1 Ventricle

Turtles, Snakes, Lizards

Incomplete septum partially divides singleventricle into separate right and left chambers; 2 major aortas lead thesystemic circulation


- 2 Atria and 1 Ventricle


- Similar to human fetuses

Alligators

Complete septum allows Ventricle to be divided,but pulmonary and systemic circuits connect where arteries exit, allowingshunting blood flow away from lungs temporarily when animal is underwater

Birds

The trachea is ventral to the esophagus. ____ have a left and right arrangement.

Tetrapods

- Double circulation is a shared derived character of ___________ and a chambered heart is an ancestral character.

a. Double Circulation

Heart can pump harder to increase blood pressure from this adaptation.




a. Double Circulation


b. Two ventricles

b. Two ventricles

The problem of O2 rich and poor blood mixing was solved by




a. Double Circulation


b. Two ventricles

1. Vena Cava


2. Aorta

Name the major blood vessel.




The __1__ stays open when cut open because of its diameter. The __2__ deflates but stays wide open because of high blood pressure.

Cardiac Cycle


- 1 Complete Sequence of Pumping and filling of the heart


- Contracts and relaxes in a rhythmic cycle

Systole




Diastole

- Contraction or pumping phase




- Relaxation or filling phase

Lub sound

Name the heart sound that is created by recoil of blood against closed atrioventricular valves

Dup sound

- Heart sound caused by vibrations caused by closing of the semilunar valves

Heart Rate

Also called the pulse, the number of beats per minute

Stroke Volume

Amount of blood pumped in a single contraction

Cardiac Output

- Volume of blood pumped into the systemic circulation per minute and depends on both the heart rate and stroke volume

Heart Rate * Stroke Volume

- Cardiac output equation

1. Endothelium


2. Basal Lamina


3. Connective Tissue


4. Muscle

Capillaries have thin walls, the __1__ plus its __2__ to facilitate the exchange of materials. Arteries and veins have an __1__, smooth muscle and __3__. Arteries have thick walls than veins to accommodate high blood pressure. In thinner walled veins, blood flows back to heart mainly as a result of __4__ action.

Capillary beds

Velocity of blood flow is slowest in the __1__ as a result of high resistance and large total cross sectional area. Blood flow is necessarily slow for exchange of materials.

1. Heart
2. 120
3. 70

Blood pressure is generally measured for an artery in the arm at the same height as the __1__. On average is at __2__ mmHg at systole and __3__ mmHg at diastole.

5-10%

Blood flows through only __1__ of the body's capillaries at a time. In the major organs, they are filled to capacity.

- Smooth muscle layer contraction in arteriole


- Precapillary sphincters control flow of blood between arterioles and venules

2 Mechanisms that regulate distribution of blood in capillary beds



- Nerve impulses


- Hormones


- Chemicals

Blood flow is regulated by (3)

1. Out


2. Into


3. Blood proteins


4. Blood cells

The difference between blood pressure and osmotic pressure drives fluids __1__ of capillaries at the arteriole end and __2__ capillaries at the venule end. Most __3__ and __4__ are too large to pass through endothelium.

1. Venous
2. Veins

Lymph reenters circulation directly at the __1__ end of the capillary bed and indirectly through the lymphatic system which drains into __2__ in the neck.
