    items such as Safety lancet, Alcohol wipe, A few heparinized capillary tubes, Bandage, Sealing clay, Paper towel, and electronic microscope. The procedure to observe the phagocytosis was more interesting. The first step was wiping a finger with alcohol pad, then, stick a finger with the lancet. The second step, we collected blood in a capillary tube and fill the capillary tube at 1/2 to 3/4 full. The third step, we pressed the capillary tube into the sealing clay and waited until speared the…

    through the pulmonary semilunar valve into the pulmonary trunk and out the pulmonary arteries. We are on our way back to the lungs now. It gets a little small again as we pump through the pulmonary arterioles and into the capillaries. Here we have our last gas exchange with the capillaries. Our carbon dioxide is now red blood cell free and on its way out of the body! In the alveoli, we have to push through the bronchiole tree again. First we float through the terminal bronchioles, then the…

    produces a partial pressure (PO2) which drives diffusion. The transport of O2 involves the transfer from the alveoli to the pulmonary capillaries in the lung and hemoglobin binding and transport. Also the dissociation from hemoglobin in the tissue capillaries transports O2. Through alveoli-to-capillary transfer in the lung, O2 moves from the alveoli to the pulmonary capillaries as a dissolved…

    called systemic circuit. From the heart blood flows through large muscular arteries, then into smaller and smaller arteries, then arterioles and finally to the capillaries. It’s in the capillaries where the diffusion process takes place to exchange molecules of oxygen and nutrients for carbon dioxide of nearby cells, after leaving the capillaries blood is collected into venules the smallest of veins then into veins of increasing size until it reaches the heart [6]. The right side of the heart…

    cardiovascular system Blood vessels Arteries, veins and capillaries takes blood and nutrition to the muscles and back from the heart. Arteries take the blood that has O2 in it away from the heart under high pressure with a small diameter and it has thick muscular walls, and veins take the blood back to the heart under low pressure it has a medium thickness to it and a large diameter because it has valves to stop the blood flowing backwards. Capillaries is one cell thick so it can take the…

    What is the Cardiovascular System? The Cardiovascular System is also known as the Circulatory System and the Vascular System which is an Organ System.2nd The Cardiovascular System consist of the heart, blood vessels and the blood. All three of these elements make up the Cardiovascular System. These elements permit the blood to circulate and transport nutrients, oxygen, carbon dioxide, hormones and blood cells to and from the cells in the body to provide nourishment. Also, the different parts of…

    The fine capillary tube will be used to apply analgesic drug components on the dots. For instance, the fine capillary tube will be dipped in a stock aspirin solution, followed by touching the tip of the capillary tube and quickly transferring the solution to the dot marked A. The solvent at dot marked A will be allowed to evaporate. After evaporation of the solvent, another drop will be added to the same spot. This treatment will be conducted to other dots, but using separate fine capillary…

    from the capillaries and deposit it into the right atrium. Toxins and bacteria are removed from the blood by the liver. The path of blood goes through the artery to the arterioles into branching capillaries or venules which form into veins. From here, the vein enter the vena cava. Blood pressure is the force pushing against an artery wall. Blood pressure rises and falls as blood travels through the body. When blood goes from the aorta to the arteries, blood pressure falls. In the capillaries,…
