What are the 3 differences between a fetal heart and an adult heart and how do they function?

Ductus venosus: Bypasses liver by way of umbilical vein to IVC.


Foramen ovale: First of 2 lung bypasses. Opening in atrial septum that allows blood to pass from right atrium to left atrium.


Ductus arteriosis: Second lung bypass. takes blood from pulmonary artery directly to aorta.

The portion of the cardiovascular system which carries deoxygenated blood away from the heart, to the lungs, and returns oxygenated (oxygen-rich) blood back to the heart.

Pulmonary circulation

The part of the cardiovascular system which carries oxygenated blood away from the heart to the body, and returns deoxygenated blood back to the heart

Systemic circulation

Movement of solutes and fluid through a selectively permeable membrane due to an outside (hydrostatic)pressure

Filtration

Movement of water and solutes out of the tubules and into the blood

Re-absorption

Movement of solutes from the blood and into the tubule

Secretion

The law relating to the passage of fluid out of a capillary depending on the hydrostatic and osmotic pressures of the blood and the same pressures of tissue fluid, the net effect of the opposing pressures determining the direction and rate of flow.

Starling's Law of Capillary Action

What are the 4 extraembryonic membranes and what are their functions?
