Marisa Alberto Period: 3 Cardiovascular System

Vital signs

ABO, Rh blood types

Structural and functional differences between blood vessel types

Anatomy of the heart

Blood flow through the heart and blood

Major Components & functions of Blood

Major functions of Cardiovascular

Layers of heart

Cardiac cycle and ECG

Major blood vessel

-Blood transports nutrients and oxygen to the body cells

-removes metabolic wastes and carbon dioxide

-transports substances throughout the body

Type B blood- B antigens on RBC

Type AB blood-A and B antigens on RBC and neither type of antibodies

Type A blood- A antigens on RBC and anti-B in plasma

-nutrients to tissues

-removing wastes

-supplying oxygen

right ventricle- pulmonary semilunar valve and pulmonary arteries

left atrium- pulmonary vein and bicuspid valve

right atrium- superior vena cava and tricuspid valve

Myocardium- middle layer it pump bloods out of the chambers

Endocardium-inner layer it contains the purkinje

Epicardium-outermost layer it decreases friction in the heart

Pulmonary circuit-blood flow between heart and lungs

Systemic circuit-blood flow between heart and body tissues

proceeds in a continuous circle

a part of that makes up the circulatory system

carries blood away from the heart, to the cells, and back again

ECG-recording of electrical changes that occur during a cardiac cycle

Venules-leading from capillaries merge to form larger

Capillaries-blood vessels with the smallest diameter

Veins-return blood to the heart

heart heart- response to the autonomic nervous system

Electrocardiogram- recording of the electrical changes that occur during a cardiac cycle

Arterial blood pressure- rises and falls according to a pattern
established by the cardiac cycle

Disorders

myocardial Infarction- blood flow to part of the heart is blocked

Cerebrovascular- blood flow to a portion of the brain is interrupted

Congenital heart disease- issue with heart structure and/or function present from birth.

Cardiac Cycle- 1. Atria contract while ventricles relax 2. Then ventricles contract while atria relax 3. Then entire heart relaxes for a moment

Arterioles-wall of

Arteries-strong and elastic vessels adapted for carrying high-pressure blood

-contains red blood cell, white blood cells, platelets, and plasma

Type O blood-neither antigen on RBC and both
types of antibodies

Rh negative-blood is absent

Rh positive-blood is present

left ventricle- aortic semilunar valve and aorta
