49 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
arteries
leave the heart

aorta and pulmonary
veins
enter the heart

superior vena cava
inferior vena cava
pulmonary veins
umbilical cord
umbilical arteries and a single vein
leucocytes
know how to draw them
neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils
how many chambers does the heart have? what are they?
four
two atria and ventricles
each atrium and ventricle is separated via an AV valve
what chamber is on the right?
is its blood oxygenated or deoxygenated?
tricuspid

deoxygenated
what chamber is on the left?
is its blood oxygenated or deoxygenated?
bicuspid

oxygenated
what are heart sounds caused by?
blood flowing through the AV valves and the closing of the semilunar valves
are pulse rate and heart beat the same?
yes
what two numbers is blood pressure recorded as?
systolic pressure: the contraction of the ventricles

diastolic pressure: pressure in the arteries as the ventricles relax
EKG
electrocardiogram: a recording of the electrical impulses detected at the body's surface
what is the first sound heard when determining blood pressure?
the blood beginning to flow through the brachial artery
SA node
sinoatrial node

a bundle of nervous cells known as the pacemaker of the heart

the contractions are electrical impulses
where is the SA node located
in the right atrium and cause both the left and right atria to contract
AV node
sends impulses to the Bundle of His, a bundle of conducting fibers, then to the ventricles which causes them to contract
where is the AV node located?
the right atrium
how long does each heart beat last?
.8 of a second
aorta
leaves the left ventricle and carries oxygenated blood
coronary

aka cardiac artery
first branch of the aorta

supplies the cardiac muscle tissue cells of the heart with oxygen right blood
pulmonary artery
leaves the right ventricle of the heart and carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs where the hemoglobin the red blood cells combines with the oxygen.

the oxygenated blood is then carried back to the left atrium by the pulmonary veins
difference between fetus pulmonary artery and adult
in fetus the pulmonary artery doesnt carry blood to the lungs because the lungs arent functional.

the pulmonary artery is connected to aorta via the arterial ducts or ductus arteriosus
when does the ductus arteriosus close?
when baby is born and begins to breath through its lungs
what are the veins that carry deoxygenated blood back to the right atrium?
superior vena cava
inferior vena cava
where does the superior vena cava carry blood from?
should and head area
where does the inferior vena cava carry blood from?
pelvic and abdominal area
what do the subclavian arteries do?
carry blood to the shoulder and forelimb area
what do the illiac arteries do?
carry blood to the legs or hindlimb area
what do the renal arteries do?
carry blood to the kidneys
whats a difference btw fetal or and newborn circulation?
umbilical arteries carry deoxygenated blood from fetus to mother's placenta and an umbilical vein carries oxygenated blood back to the heart of the fetus. (these blood vessels replace the pulmonary artery and veins in a newborn)
neutrophils
(a leococyte)
-phagocytic
-can leave the blood stream, squeezing btw the capillary walls and engulf bacteria at the site of an infection
-they have an amoeboid action
monocytes
same action as a neutrophil except they leave the blood stream only in chronic infections and when neutrophils cannon combat the invading organisms
lymphocytes
product antiobiotics which aid your immune system
eosinophils
-produce antihistamine in allergic responses
-have bright red granules in they cytoplasm and are quite numerous when the body is reacting to allergens and histamine is produced
basophils
-produce an anticoagulant called Herapin
-normally found in blood, which prevents the blood from clotting wtihin the blood vessels
what kind of muscle is the heart?
cardiac muscle
what gets oxygenated blood first? the heart or the brain?
heart
what happens in capillaries
an exchange of CO2 and oxygen

where veins and arteries connect
what are the five major vessels that leave the heart
superior vena cava
inferior vena cava
pulmonary artery
pulmonary vein
aorta
how does the fetal circulation differ from that in the adult pig?
umbilical cord
lungs dont work (ductus arteriosus)
leucocytes from most numerous to least
neutrophil
lymphocyte
monocyte
eosinophil
basophil
type A blood
A antigen
B antibody
type B blood
B antigen
A antibody
type AB blood
A and B antigen
no antibody
type O blood
no antigen
A and B antibody
serum
liquid yellow portion of blood
agglutinating
clumping of cells if antibody=antigen
antigen D
Rh factor on red blood cell if your Rh positive

Rh negative if you dont have it
what else is an an antigen called
agglutinogen
what else is an antibody called
agglutinin
