Q

Things that can disrupt vascular system

A
Clots
Narrowing of arteries 
Elevated blood pressure 
Brain swell downward 
Also need vascular supply as well

Q

What does common carotid artery divide into

A

15
Q

What do the external carotid arteries )l and r) serve

A

Outer surface of face

16
Q

What do internal carotid arteries (land r) serve

A

The brain, they travel along the neck, upward, just behind the jaw

17
Q

Where do internal carotid argues eventually merge

A

At the c of w

At the base if the brain, ready to beach into kore cerebral arteries

18
Q

Where does blood move

A

From heart mover superiorly

19
Q

Internal- c of w

A

Mainly provide for ant cerebral artery and middle cerebral artery

20
Q

Pairs of cerebral artery

A

Ant pair, middle pair, post pair

21
Q

Carotids =

A

Anterior and lateral

22
Q

Path of blood

A

From heart to vertebral arteries to basilar to c of w

23
Q

Heart muscles pump oxygenated blood into the

24
Aorta sends blood to
Two subclavian arteries (l and r)
25
Subclavians branch into
Vertebral arteries (l and r)
26
Vertebral arteries travel upward along each side of the
Brainstem
27
Where do vertebral arteries join together
At the top of the brainstem (base of skull)
28
Once at brainstem vertebral arteries form 1 artery called
Basilar artery
29
Basilar artery
Supply posterior cerebral artery (pair) and cerebellar arteries (further back, branch off a little before c of w)
30
Basilar artery eventually merged at the c of w along with
Other Arteries ( from the internal carotid arteries (l and r))
31
Vertebrals path
Wind around and come up base of spinal cord- move superiorly along cervical verterbraes
32
Vertebrals= basilar =
Posterior
33
Internal Carotids give rise to
Anterior communicating artery
34
Ant comm art connects the
2 anterior cerebral arteries (ACA) and 2 middle cerebral arteries (MCA)
35
Posterior communicating artery
Extends back towards where the basilar artery joins the c of w
36
What has basilar artery been formed by
Two vertebrals
37
Basilar artery give rise to
Ant inferior cerebellar artery (AICA) and 2 posterior cerebral arteries (PCA)
38
Vertebral arteries give rise to
The posterior inferior cerebellar arteries. (PICA)
