Systemic circulation

A

Send oxygenated blood from the left side of heart to the tissues through the aorta and deoxygenated blood from the tissues to the right side of heart through the vena cava

Q

Heart valves

A

Tricuspid separates the right atrium and right ventricle, biscuspid (mitral)separates the left atrium and left ventricle, pulmonary valve at the exit of right ventricle and aortic valve at the exit of the left ventricle

Q

three steps of respiration

A

Pulmonary ventilation, inhalation and exhalation, exchange of air between atmosphere and alveoli, external respiration , exchange of Gad between alveoli and the blood in the lungs,, internal respiration is the exchange of gases between systemic capillaries and tissue cells

17
Q

Boyles law

A

In a closed space pressure and volume are inversely related, as volume decreases pressure increases and vice versa
