Cardiovascular
heart
pericardial membranes
Fibrous pericardium
DICT, from diaphragm to root of large vessels, keeps heart in place, keeps heart from overfilling
Serous Pericardium
-
-
membranes - simple squamous, areollar connective tissue
Pericardial cavity
filled w/ serous fluid, reduces friction
-
layers of heart wall
epicardium
serous membrane, visceral pericardium
-
Endocardium
inside layer- lines the heart, simple squamous + areolar C.T; covers the valves
heart valves
Atrioventricular valves
Blood flows through the superior and inferior vena cava into the the right and left atrium and passing through into the ventricles
semilunnar valves
the ventricles contract and the blood flows out of the aorta through the aortic arch pulmonary trunk
-
blood vessels
artery types
Elastic/ Conducting
Moving blood away from heart, largest, proximal to heart - aorta and major branches, stretch and recoil- propel blood
Muscular/ distributing
move muscle relative to size than other arteries. take blood to organ, parts of organ; distal to elastic/ conducting arteries; they can contract or dilate to decrease or increase blood flow
-
capillary types
Continuous
Most common; CNS, lungs, smooth muscle, skeletal muscle; intercellular clefts- somewhat leaky
Fenestrated
pores, high rate of exchange; small intestine, kidney, choroid plexus
Sinusoid
Large, winding, large items can be exchanged- proteins + whole cells; liver=proteins, spleen= whole cells
-
vein types
venules
smallest veins, much like capillaries, 1-2 layers of smooth muscle
-
-
-
blood
plasma
liquid- 90% water, 100 different molecules, ions, minerals, hormones; nutrients: lipids, sugar, amino acids
