in birds and mammals, there are ___ chambers of the heart
4 chambers
The ________ have thicker walls and contract much stronger than the atria
ventricle
The ____ ventrical is stronger than the _____
Left
Right
A cardiac cycle is one complete sequence
1.) Both atrium and ventricles relax
2.) Atrium contracts ventricle relaxes
3.) atrium relaxes ventricle contracts
The contraction phase of cardiac muscle is called
systole
The relaxation phase is called
Diastole
3 layers of arteries and veins (outside to inside)
Connective tissues
Smooth muscle and elastic fibers
Endothelium
2 layers of capillaries
endothelium and its basement membrane, enhancing
their exchange
Difference between arteries and veins
middle and outer layers than veins
The thicker walls of arteries provide
strength to accommodate blood pumped rapidly and at high pressure by the heart
helps maintain blood pressure in the arteries
elastic recoil
Veins blood vessels is a result of
skeletal muscle contraptions
a one-way valve
The ____________ of capillaries determines flow in each
total cross-sectional area
At any given time, only about ________ of the body's capillaries have blood flowing through them
5 - 10%
Capillaries in the __________ are usually filled to capacity but in many other sites the blood supply varies over time as blood is diverted
brain
heart
kidneys
liver
The exchange of substances between the blood and the ______ that bathes the cells takes place across the of the _______capillaries
interstitial fluid
thin endothelial walls
About 85% of the fluid that leaves the blood at the arterial end of the capillary bed
reenters from the interstitial fluid at the venous end
The remaining 15% of the capillary fluid
renters through the lymph system
Major function of the lymphatic system
to return fluid to the blood and aids in body defenses.
Fluids and some blood proteins that leak from the capillaries into the interstitial fluid are returned to the blood via the ____________
Lymphatic System
Fluid of the lymphatic system
Lymph
The lymphatic system drains into the circulatory system
near the junction of the venue cava with the right atrium
A connective tissue with cells suspended in plasma
Blood
The function of red blood cells
oxygen transport
The transport of red blood cells depends on
on rapid diffusion of oxygen across the red cell's plasma membranes
The structure of red blood cells
Has a large Surface area, lacks a nuclei
Number of hemoglobin in a red blood cells
250 million per cell
Eurthrocytes, leukocytes, and platelets all develop from a
pluripotent stem cells in the red marrow of bones
Plasma is made of
Water
Ions
Plasma Proteins
Substances transported by blood
Function of water in the plasma
Act as a solvent for other substances
Ions in water
Na Mg
K Cl
Ca HCO3
Function of ion in the plasma
Osmotic balance
pH buffering
regulating membrane permeability
Plasma Protiens
Albumin
Fibrinogen
Immunoglobins (antibodies)
Function of plasma proteins
Osmotic balance
pH buffering
Clotting
Defenses
Substances transported by blood
Nutrients
Waste products of metabolism
Respiratory gases
Hormones
Cellular elements in blood
Euthrocytes-red blood cells
Leukocytes- White blood cells
Platelets
functions of erythrocytes
Transports O2 and CO2
function of leukocytes
Defense and immunity
Function of platelets
Blood clotting
The process of clotting blood
(1) Endothelium of vessel is damaged exposing connective tissue, platelets adhere
(2) Platelets form a plug
(3) Seal is Reinforced by a clot of fibrin
Plasma clotting factors
calcium and vitamin K
Prothrombin activates _____ which connects to ____ activating _____
Thrombin
Fibrinogen
Fibrin
Clot in a Heart artery-            
Heart attack
Clot in brain artery--
Stroke
the uptake of molecular oxygen (O₂) from the environment and
the discharge of carbon dioxide (CO₂)
to the environment
respiration
The source of O₂is ___ for terrestrial animals and ___ for aquatic animals
air
water
The percentage of O2 in the air
21 %
Is the out folding of the body surface that are suspended in water
gills
The advantage of water as a respiratory medium
There is no problem keeping the cell membranes of the respiratory surface moist, since the gills are surrounded by water
The disadvantage of water as a respiratory medium
The concentration of O₂ in
water is low
CO₂does not diffuse will in water like it does in air
increases the flow of the respiratory medium over the respiratory surface
Ventilation
Gas exchange at the gill surface is enhanced by
counter current exchange
In an open circulatory system, gas exchange ____ with ___-
is not in the system            
There is multiple trachea throughout the body


(2)             
Lungs: spongy texture, and are honeycombed with
a moist epithelium that functions as the respiratory surface
The epithelium lining the major branches of the respiratory tree
is covered by cilia and a thin film of mucus
At their tips, the tiniest bronchioles dead end as a cluster of air sacs called
alveoli
The ventilation of trachea lungs
The process of breathing
A frog ventilates its lungs by
positive
pressure breathing
The process of positive pressure breathing
1.Muscle lower the floor of the oral cavity,enlarging it and drawing in air through the nostrills
2.With the nostrils and mouth closed, the floor of
the oral cavity rises and air is forced down the trachea
3. Elastic Recoil of the lungs, together with
compression of the muscular body wall, forced down the trachea
