Q

What is special about the intercostal arteries?

A

-connected to both the aorta and the internal thoracic artery
-cutting one does not significantly damage the blood flow to the surrounding tissue

17
Q

What are the atrioventricular valves?

A

valves between the atria and the ventricles

18
Q

What are tendinous cords?

A

cords of tissue that attach the AV valves to the ventricular walls

19
Q

What are the functions of the AV valves?

A

-allow blood flow from atria to ventricles
-prevent blood flow from ventricles to atria
-one way valves

20
Q

What is papillary muscle?

A

thickened muscular areas in the ventricular walls where the tendinous cords attach

21
Q

What is the pulmonary valve?

A

valve within the pulmonary artery that separates the artery from the RV

22
Q

What is the aortic valve?

A

valve within the aorta that separates the artery from the LV

23
Q

What is the caudal vena cava?

A

large vein structure that brings blood from the caudal body to the RA

24
Q

What is the cranial vena cava?

A

large vein structure that brings blood from the cranial body to the RA

25
Q

What is the great cardiac vein?

A

vein that brings blood back to the heart from the coronary system

26
Q

What is the coronary sinus?

A

the dilated opening of the great cardiac vein into the RA

27
Q

What is the role of pulmonary veins?

A

to bring blood from the lungs to the LA

28
Q

What is the purpose of the portal system?

A

to filter out harmful things from the blood that are picked up in the stomach

29
Q

What is a portal system?

A

a series of veins between multiple capillary beds

30
Q

What are the three unbranched arteries that shoot off the aorta?

A

-celiac artery
-cranial mesenteric artery
-caudal mesenteric artery

31
Q

What does the celiac artery supply?

stomach and spleen

32
Q

What does the cranial mesenteric artery supply?

A

intestines

33
Q

What does the caudal mesenteric artery supply?

A

intestines

34
Q

Which arteries supply the kidneys?

36
Q

Which arteries supply the back legs?

A

external iliac arteries

37
Q

Which arteries supply the pelvic cavity?

A

internal iliac arteries

38
Q

Which two veins combine to form the portal vein?

A

-cranial mesenteric vein
-caudal mesenteric vein

39
Q

Which veins run from the liver to the RA?

A

hepatic veins

40
Q

Which two veins combine to form the common iliac vein?

A

-external iliac vein
-internal iliac vein

41
Q

What do the two common iliac veins combine to form?

A

caudal vena cava
