|
tissue of tunica interna
|
endothelium
|
|
from aorta to vena cava, list hierarchy of vessels
|
aorta, arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules, veins, vena cava
|
|
atherosclerosis
|
plaque in arteries (in tunica interna)
|
|

|
|
blood from left subclavian artery flows into what vessels as it moves toward left arm?
|
left axillary artery
|
|
blood in radial artery comes from what blood vessel?
|
brachial artery
|
|
an aneurysm is a weakened, expanded portion of artery. ruptured aneurysms can lead to rapid blood loss. describe significance of aortic aneurysm vs digital artery aneurysm
|
-loss of blood in digital artery aneurysm would be minimal due to small size of artery of finger and fact that finger is not vital organ
-rupture of aorta would be fatal as vessel is very large and rapid blood loss would follow |
|
pulmonary arteries carry deoxygenated blood from heart to lungs. umbilical arteries carry mix of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. why are these blood vessels called arteries?
|
an artery is defined as vessel that carries blood from heart and not by what kind of blood is contained w/in vessel.
