Front 22

Purkinje fibers

Back 22

Specialized conductive fibers located within the walls of the ventricles. These fibers relay the electrical impulses to the cells of the ventricles, and it is this stimulation that causes the ventricles, and it is this stimulation that causes the ventricles to contract. This contraction of the ventricles forces blood out of the heart and into the aorta and pulmonary arteries

Front 23

Arteries

Front 27

Capillaries

Back 27

Our only one epithelial cell in thickness, are the smallest blood vessels in the body. A4 networks and expanded vascular bed and have an important role in delivering oxygen and nutrients to the cells of the tissues

Front 28

Veins

Back 28

Form a low pressure collecting system to return oxygen poor blood to the heart

Front 29

Venules

Back 29

The smallest veins that join to form the larger veins

Front 30

Venue cavae

Back 30

Front 31

Pulse

Back 31

They rhythmic pressure against the walls of an artery caused by the contraction of the heart

Front 32

Blood pressure

Back 32

The measurement of the amount of systolic and diastolic pressure exerted against the walls of the arteries

Front 33

Systolic pressure

Back 33

Occurs when the ventricles contract, is the highest pressure against the walls of an artery

Front 34

Diastolic pressure

Back 34

Occurs when the ventricles are relaxed, is the lowest pressure against the walls of an artery

Front 35

Plasma

Back 35

A straw-colored fluid that contains nutrients, hormones, and waste products. Plasma is 91% water. The remaining 9% consist of mainly proteins, including the clotting proteins

Front 36
