Deep vein thrombosis

clean test tubes were measured and a mark was made at one and two centimeters to ensure quantities of samples were measured accurately. Three out of the six test tubes were filled to the one centimeter mark with the samples of the hepatic vein, hepatic portal vein, and the mesenteric artery postprandial. The next three test tubes were measured to one centimeter with samples that were extracted from the same areas of the blood vessel system. The difference in the samples was that the second…

American Society vs. Brave New World Society There is a plethora of things that differentiate American society from that of the novel Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. One of them is the quote “everyone belongs to everyone” (Huxley) which, in one sense, may mean that everyone in the society is equal, but in another sense, may mean that there are no relationships and everybody has sex with everybody like hippies in the 1960s. In American society, there are some people that enjoy having sexual…

with the lymphatics of the deep plexus there (Schraufnagel, 2010). While the superficial plexus drains the visceral pleura and adjacent layer of subpleural tissues the remaining parts of the lung is drained by the deep plexus (Brotons et al., 2012). The subpleural lymphatics were occasionally found to have direct passages to the mediastinal nodes (Riquet et al., 1989), which explains the occurrence of skipped metastasis in around 15% of primary lung cancer cases. The deep plexus consists of…

throughout the body. It is composed of three layers the pericardium (around or outside of the heart), the myocardium (middle layer of the heart), and the endocardium (the inside of the heart). The blood vessels consist of arteries, capillaries, and veins. They help to transport blood throughout the body and also carry blood away or…

Introduction: The heart plays a crucial role in the human circulatory system. The large organ pumps the blood through arteries, veins, and capillaries to distribute oxygen and nutrients to the body. The circulatory system also plays a part in removing our waste products. Humans have double circulation, meaning the blood passes through the heart twice before completing one round; this allows for the blood to be “re-pressurized”. Once the right side of the heart receives blood from the body,…

1. Explain the relationship between the skeletal and muscular systems. So in the simplest terms, the skeletal system (Bones) make it so that way you have structure in you’re not a blob of skin and cartilage, and the muscular system makes it so that way you can get up and move around. The skeletal system provides the framework for your body, while the muscular system consists of soft tissues that support the skeleton. 2. Why is the circulatory system important? Because it circulates the blood in…

The circulatory system is composed of vessels that take blood from the heart, thin-walled capillaries where exchange occurs, and vessels that return blood to the heart. Blood is pumped by the heart simultaneously into two ways the pulmonary and systemic circuits. The pulmonary system takes blood through the lungs where gas exchange occurs and the systemic system transports blood to all parts of the body where exchange with tissue fluid takes place. In practical terms, we can think of the…

supplies oxygen throughout our body(Jacobs). Pumped through a network of arteries and veins, blood is a very important part of our body. Without blood, we could not live. This is because it keeps us warm, fights off infections, and helps get rid of waste(Durani). Blood also transports oxygen and hormones throughout our body. Our circulatory system is made up of the heart and blood vessels. They also include arteries, veins, and capillaries. There are two parts to the circulatory system: the…

The cardiovascular system The cardiovascular system consists of the heart, blood vessels and approximately the 5 litres of the blood that the blood vessels transport. The cardiovascular system is powered by the body’s hardest working organ. The cardiovascular system is responsible for transporting nutrients and removing gaseous waste from your body. The main structures of this system is the heart the blood vessels and blood. Delivery of oxygen and nutrients The pulmonary circuit carries blood…

body. Capillaries carry blood very close to the cells of the tissues of the body in order to exchange gases, nutrients, and waste products. The final type of blood vessels are the veins. Veins are seen as the counter part of the arteries ad their job is to pump blood back to the heart from the outer parts of the body. Veins rely on gravity, inertia, and the force of skeletal muscle contractions to help push blood back to the heart because of the fact that once the blood reaches them the blood…
