Cardiovascular System (heart (conduction system (Sinoatrial node (SA)…
Cardiovascular System
heart
layers of heart wall
epicardium
- is a visceral pericardium of serous pericardium
- infiltrated with fat, especially in older people
myocardium
- cardiac muscle
- squeeze blood out
endocardium
- lines heart and covers valves
- simple squamous epithelium and areolar connective tissue
-
pericardium membranes
-
serous pericardium
parietal pericardium
- adheres to the inner surface
of the fibrous pericardium
visceral pericardiun
- lies on the heart and is
considered a part of the heart wall
pericardium cavity
- a slitlike apace
- produces a lubricating film of serous fluid
heart valves
atrioventricular valves
- blood flow inside through this
- located at the junctions of the atria
and their respective ventricles
- left and right atrioventricular valves
semilunar valves
- located at the junction of the
ventricles and the great arteries
- aortic and pulmonary semilunar valves
conduction system
Sinoatrial node (SA)
- pace maker
- located in right atrium
- generate electrical signal
- atrial contract, using gap junction to spread the signal
- signal to AV node
-
AV bundle
- bundle of His which enters the interventricular septum
Bundle of branches
- divides into left and right bundle branches
Purkinje
- the bundle branches terminate which approach the apex and then turn superiorly into the ventricular walls.
blood vessels
artery types
-
-
atterioles
- 1-2 layers of smooth muscle
- changing diameter to regulate
blood flow
capillary types
continuous
- most common
- CNS, lungs, skin, skeletal
muscle, smooth muscle
- least leakey
fenestrated
- more leaky
- high rate of exchange
- small intestine, kidneys,
choroid plexus, endocrine glands
sinusoid
- large, winding
- exchange things as large
as proteins, whole cells
- liver, red bone marrow, spleen
vein types
veins
- valves to keep blood
moving forward
- few elastic fibers
venules
- much like capillaries
- still some exchange
- 1-2 layers of smooth muscles
blood
plasma
- sticky fluid, 90% water
- contains over 100 different
kinds of molecules
also contains protein
albumin
- helps keep water in
blood vessels
-
globulin
- antibodies
- protect us from pathogens
- transporters
cells
erythrocyte
- bags of hemoglobin
- binds oxygen
- creates in red bone marrow
- transport oxygen
leukocyte
agranulocytes
lymphocytes
- mount immune response by direct cell
attack (T cells) or via antibodies (B cells)
monocytes
- phagocytosis
- develop into macrophages
in tissues
granulocytes
neutrophils
- destroy bacteria by phagocytosis
eosinophils
- turn off allergic responses and kill patasites
basophils
- release histamine and other mediators of inflammation
platelets/thrombocytes
- created in red bone marrow
- pieces of a larger cell called megakaryocyte
- pieces of cytoplasm
- roll in stopping bleeding and clot formation
