Name the circulation to and from the lungs.
pulmonary circulation
Name the circulation to and from the myocardium.
coronary circulation
Name and describe the two pulmonary fetal bypasses
a) foramen ovale-between the right and left atrium
b) ductus arteriosus
The three divisions of the aorta are the
Ascending aorta, the aortic arch, and the descending divisions (of the descending aorta)
The two subdivisions of the descending aorta are the
thoracic aorta and the abdominal aorta
Name the two main branches of the brachiocephalic artery.
right common carotid artery and right subclavian artery
Name the two branches of the common carotid.
internal carotid artery and external carotid artery
After passing the first rib, the subclavian artery becomes the
axillary artery
Name the upper arm artery.
brachial artery
Name the artery in thumb side (lateral) part of forearm.
radial artery
This branch of the subclavian artery goes deep into the neck and passes through the transverse foramina of the cervical vertebrae.
vertebral artery
Name the arteries that form the Circle of Willis.
Posterior cerebral artery, posterior communicating artery, anterior cerebral artery, and anterior communicating artery.
Name the arteries that supply blood to the Circle of Willis.
internal carotid artery and basilar artery
Name the first unpaired artery inferior to the diaphragm.
celiac trunk (artery)
Name the three major branches of the celiac trunk artery
common hepatic artery, left gastric artery, and the splenic artery
Name the next unpaired artery.
superior mesenteric artery
Name the arteries that supply blood to the kidneys.
renal arteries
Name the arteries that supply blood to the testes or ovaries.
gonadal arteries
Name the lower counterpart to the superior mesenteric artery.
inferior mesenteric artery
The abdominal descending aorta divides to form these arteries in the pelvis.
common iliac arteries
Common iliac arteries divide to form
external iliac arteries and internal iliac arteries
The external iliac artery forms this major artery as it passes the body wall and enters the thigh.
femoral artery
At the knee, the femoral artery becomes the
popliteal artery
Name the more anterior branch of the popliteal artery
anterior tibial artery
Name the more posterior branch of the popliteal artery
posterior tibial artery
Name the artery across the top of foot.
dorsalis pedis
This artery supplies blood to the small intestine, pancreas and most of the large intestine.
superior mesenteric artery
This artery divides to form the common hepatic, splenic and left gastric arteries.
Celiac trunk (artery)
Name the vein that collects blood from head and upper extremities into the right atrium.
superior vena cava
Name the vein that passes blood into the right atrium from below the heart.
inferior vena cava
Name the veins produced by the forking (bifurcation) of the vein superior vena cava
brachiocephalic veins
Name the major branches of each of the vessels in the brachiocephalic veins. One passes up the neck, the other heads towards the shoulder.
internal jugular vein and subclavian vein
Name the armpit vein.
axillary vein
Name the vein on lateral side of arm
cephalic vein
Name the vein on medial most side of arm
basilic vein
Name the veins that collect blood from the liver
hepatic veins
Name the veins that collect blood from the kidneys.
renal veins
Name the veins that collect blood from the gonads.
gonadal veins
the right one connects to the inferior vena cava
the left one connects to the renal vein
In the pelvis, the inferior vena cava forks (bifurcates) to form these two veins.
common iliac veins
The common iliac veins divides, in turn, to form these two veins.
external iliac vein and internal iliac vein
