26
Q

This branch of the external carotid arteries, supplies blood to the external part of the pinna, a.k.a. ear

A

What is the posterior auricular artery?

27
Q

After the eight branches of the external carotid artery supply their perspective branches, they will dump their deoxygenated blood into these two veIns…

A

What is the posterior auricular and the posterior facial veins

28
Q

The posterior auricular vein and the posterior facial vein, join together to form this vein…

A

What is the external jugular vein?

29
Q

In Venous return from the head, the right and left subclavian vein flows into the right and left of this vein

A

What is the right and left innominate Veins?

31
Q

The brain receives blood by the four main arteries after bifurcating from the left and right common carotid arteries

A

What is the right and left vertebral arteries and the right and left internal carotid arteries

32
Q

These are the three branches of the right, and left subclavian arteries

A

1.What are the right and left axillary arteries 2. right and left internal thoracic arteries, a.k.a.Mammary arteries, and 3. the right, and left vertebral arteries (which extends towards the brain)

33
Q

These arteries pass through the transverse foramina of the cervical vertebrae towards the brain

A

What is right and left the vertebral arteries…

34
Q

These arteries enter the skull through the foramen magnum of the occipital bone, and when they reach the base of the brain, they unite to form the basilar artery

A

What is the right and left vertebral arteries

35
Q

This artery bifurcates into the right, and left posterior cerebral arteries

A

What is the basilar artery?

36
Q

Fill in the blanks

A
37
Q

These arteries supply blood to the brain, and are a part of the circle of Willis

A

What are the right and left posterior cerebral arteries

38
Q

These right, and left arteries enter into the skull through the carotid canal of the temporal bone, also known as the carotid foramen of the temporal bone

A

What are the right and left internal carotid arteries

39
Q

These are the four branches of the right and left internal carotid arteries in order

A

What is the 1. right and left ophthalmic artery, 2. the right and left anterior cerebral arteries, 3 the right and left posterior communicating arteries, 4. right and left middle cerebral arteries

40
Q

This branch of the internal carotid arteries extends towards the eye and supplies the eyes, and does not actually pass through the carotid canal

A

What is the right and left ophthalmic arteries

41
Q

This artery of the internal carotid arteries extends towards the brain and supply blood to the brain, also passes through the carotid canal of the temporal bone, and is a part of the Circle of Willis

A

What is the right and left anterior cerebral arteries?

42
Q

This branch of the right, and left internal carotid, arteries extend towards and supplies blood to the brain, and also passes through the carotid canal of the temporal bone, and makes up part of the Circle of Willis

A

What is the right and left posterior communicating arteries?

43
Q

This smallest branch of the right and left internal carotid arteries extend towards an supplies, blood to the brain and passes through the carotid canal for temporal bone, but is not in the circle of Willis

A

What is the right and left middle cerebral artery

44
Q

This is the largest anastomosis which is famous for supplying blood to the brain

What is the circle of Willis a.k.a. the cerebral arterial circle?

45
Q

In the circle of Willis, a.k.a., the cerebral arterial circle is most noted to surround which gland

A

What is the pituitary gland a.k.a. the master gland a.k.a. the hypophysis.

46
Q

This is defined as an alternate route of blood to reach a tissue or an organ

A

What is anastomosis?

47
Q

This is defined as the union of branches of two or more arteries supply in blood to the same region

A

What is Anastomosis?

48
Q

The circle of Willis is composed of these nine arteries

A
  1. What is the right and left posterior cerebral arteries, 2. the right, and left internal carotid arteries 3. the right and left anterior cerebral artery 4. the right and left posterior communicating arteries and 5. the anterior communicating artery
49
Q

Within the circle of Willis, these arteries are branches of the right and left vertebral arteries

A

What is the right and left posterior cerebral arteries

50
Q

These four branches are arteries, within the circle of Willis that are branches of the internal carotid artery

A

What is the right and left anterior cerebral arteries and the right and left posterior communicating arteries?

51
Q

This branch of the internal carotid arteries is not in the circle of Willis, but still supplies blood to the brain

A

What is the right and left middle cerebral arteries?

52
Q

Veins that return blood from the brain are called this

A

What are sinuses a.k.a. Dural sinuses?

53
Q

The superior sagittal sinus drains blood from this region of the brain

A

What is the superior part of the brain?

54
Q

This sinus drains blood from the deeper aspects of the brain

A
