(Midterms) Cardiovascular System (+Lymphatic)

Front 1

Systemic Circulation

Back 1

The longer circulation system

Front 2

Pulmonary Circulation

Back 2

The shorter circulation system

Front 3

Heart

Back 3

Is a hollow muscular four chambered organ that pumps blood

Front 4

Four types of blood vessels

Back 4

1. Arteries

2. Veins

3. Capillaries

4. Sinuosoids

Front 5

Arteries

Back 5

This blood vessel carries blood from the heart away to the capillaries

Front 6

Pulmonary circulation

Back 6

This circulation carries poor oxygen blood from heart to the lungs

Front 7

Systemic circulation

Back 7

This circulation carries rich oxygen blood from heart to the lungs

Front 8

Capillaries

Back 8

Composed of endothelium and its basement membrane, connects the arterioles and venules

Front 9

Capillaries

Back 9

Site of exchange of CO2 O2 nutrients and waste

Front 10

Microcirculation

Back 10

This circulation is the flow of blood from arterioles to venules

Front 11

Vascular shunt

Back 11

This vessel is a metarteriole-thoroughfare channel

Front 12

True cappilaries

Back 12

Actual exchange cessels

Front 13

Metarteriole

Back 13

Vessel structurally intermediate between cappilary and venule

Front 14

Thoroughfare channel

Back 14

Vessel structurally intermediate between capillary and venule

Front 15

Precapillary sphincters

Back 15

smooth muscle that regulates blood flow in the capillaries

Front 16

Pulmonary veins

Back 16

veins that return oxygenated blood to the heart from the lungs

Front 17

Systemic veins

Back 17

veins that return deoxygenated blood to the heard from the rest of the body

Front 18

Venae comitante

Back 18

closely accompany muscular arteries in the limbs

Front 19

Veins

Back 19

Has wider lumens

Front 20

Arteries

Back 20

Transports blood under high pressure

Front 21

Arteries

Back 21

Do not have valves

Front 22

Lymphatic system

Back 22

This system transports excess interstitial fluid which was initially formed as blood filtrate, back to the blood stream

Front 23

Lacteals

Back 23

Transports Lymph

Transports the product of fat absorption away from the digestive tract

Front 24

Lymph

Back 24

tissue fluid that enters the lymphatic capillaries

Front 25

Edema

Back 25

accumulation of tissue fluid due to inadequate lymphatic drainage

Front 26

Lymph ducts

Back 26

Lymphatic vessel that is bigger than lymph capillaries

Front 27

Lymph nodes

Back 27

Lymphocyte production and contains phagocytes

Front 28

Cisterna chyli

Back 28

saclike enlargement of the thoracic duct

Front 29

Brachiocephalic artery

Back 29

divides into the right common carotid artery and the right subclavian artery.

Front 30

Left common carotid

Back 30

major blood vessels in the neck that supply blood to the brain, neck, and face.

Front 31

Left subclavian

Back 31

These carry oxygenated blood up to the brain from the base of the neck.
