According to the American Lung Association, red blood cells collect the oxygen from the lungs and carry it throughout the body where it is needed. As the red blood cells travel through the body, they collect the carbon dioxide, taking it back to the lungs where it is then exhaled. The human body needs oxygen in order to sustain itself. The average…

In many veins, the tunica intima is equipped with pockets that act as one-way valves. These valves prevent the back flow of blood and allow the veins to act as supplemental pumps that help to keep the blood following in one direction, back toward the heart. The activity…

    In order to understand why CAD is such a fatal disease, one must understand the coronary circulation of the heart. Coronary circulation is essentially the circulation of blood in the vessels of the myocardium (Heart muscle) that ultimately deliver oxygen-rich blood to the heart. The two main blood vessels that are associated with coronary circulation are the right coronary artery and the left coronary artery. These two major arteries bifurcate off of the Aorta and encircle the heart ultimately…
