2 types of circulatory systems
open and closed
limitation of an open circulatory system
size of the animal
do open circulatory systems have blood?
no- have hemolymph
arteries carry blood ____ from the heart
away
veins carry blood ____ the heart
to
con of a closed circulatory system
metabolically expensive and under pressure so susceptible to hemorrhage
a two chambered heart (like in fish) have how many circuits?
one
- atria to ventricle
a three chambered heart has how many circuits? what is a limitation?
2 (2atria and 1 ventricle)
- deoxy and oxy blood mix
what kind of circulatory system do we as humans have
4 chambered (2 atria and 2 ventricles)
the heart is enveloped by what structure
pericardial sac
the ______ receives deoxygenated blood from the body
right atrium
what structures dump blood into the right atrium
superior and inferior vena cava
the _______ receives oxygenated blood from the lungs
left atrium
what structure dumps blood into the left atrium
pulmonary veins
the _____ ventricle receives blood from the right atrium
right
the right ventricle pumps blood into what structure
pulmonary trunk
the left ventricle pumps blood into the _______
aorta
are ventricles or atria thicker
ventricles- need to pump blood out of the heart
(LV is strongest)
the aortic semilunar valve prevents what
gravity from pulling blood back into the left ventricle
tricuspid valve between _____ and _________
right atrium and right ventricle
blood gets pumped into the lungs through the pulmonary trunk for
oxygenation
the cardiac cycle is one complete heartbeat that includes
1 contraction and relax
systole=
diastole=
contraction
relaxation
in diastole, what happens
heart is relaxed and blood enters the atria
