THYROID GLAND:The thyroid gland, located inside the neck, takes iodine from foods and converts it into thyroid hormones.
CIRCULATORY SYSTEM:
ANTERIOR VENA CAVA: The anterior vena cava drains the body of blood cranially to the heart. POSTERIOR VENA CAVA: The posterior vena cava drains the body of blood caudal to the heart.
JUGULAR VEIN: The jugular vein is a group of veins that drain the structures lying in the cranial cavity of blood, until they unite with the subclavian vein.
CEPHALIC:Large vein in upper arm that runs from hand to the shoulder. Empties into the axillary vein.
LONG THORACIC:Tributary of the axillary vein that runs through serratus anterior and pectoralis major.
COMMON ILIAC: The common iliac is a union of the external and internal iliac veins that eventually form the vena cava. …show more content…
CAUDAL VEIN• Receives blood from posterior structures and musculature of the vien. Located in the tail.
HEPATIC PORTAL SYSTEM:System of veins comprising the hepatic portal vein and its tributaries. Responsible for directing blood from the Gl tract to the liver.
UROGENITAL SYSTEM:
KIDNEYS: The kidneys remove urea, excess water, and other waste products from the blood and pass them onto the ureters. They are located in the abdominal cavity.
URETER: The ureter are long narrow tubes that transport urine from the kidneys to the urinary bladder.
URETHRA: The urethra is the duct that transports urine from the urinary bladder to the exterior of the body.
OVARIES: The ovaries are the female reproductive organs that produce gametes (ova), estrogen, and progesterone.
OVIDUCT:Tube that links the ovary to the uterus, which the ovulated oocyte travels down to become fertilized.
UTERUS:The uterus nurtures the fertilized ovum that develops in the
