|
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 |

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 |

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

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 |
