How can you trace a drop of blood from the pulmonary artery to the right radial artery?
Why would you want to do that. You would have to cut open the heart and watch the blood move from the pulmonary artery through the heart and into the right radial artery.
Why is the earthworms hearts not considered to be true hearts?
The hearts that worm's have are very different from the heart's that humans have. The worm equivalent of a heart is called the aortic arch and does not contain chambers or valves, and does not get oxygen-rich blood to the lungs. The aortic arches simply pump blood throughout the worm's body.
Trace blood flow from heart to spleen?
Aortic arch to descending thoracic aorta to abdominal aorta to celiac trunk to splenic artery
What does the cephalic artery do?
There is actually no such artery as the cephalic artery. There is the brachiocephalic artery which comes out of the aortic arch, and also a cephalic vein.
Is the brachiocephalic artery longer on the left side than on the right?
Trick question.... you only have 1 brachiocephalic trunk. It comes off the right side of the aortic arch (right side from anatomical position, or the patient's perspective) and immediately splits into the subclavian artery and the common carotid artery. On the left side of the arch the subclavian and common carotid branch directly off the aortic arch. Hopefully this makes sense.
The aortic arch is closer to the base or the apex of the heart?
the base
The aortic arch arches to where as it emerges from the heart?
Is a right sided aortic arch normal?
The aortic arch arches to what as it emerges from the heart?
left
What does the aortic arch do on the earth worm?
It carries forth blood from the heart.
What are aortic arches?
The aorta is the main artery leaving the heart. It leaves the heart heading upwards before arching over to head downwards to the lower body. The arch is the aortic arch; we all have one.
What is tortuous aortic arch?
It is an aortic arch with an aneurysm.
How can you trace a drop of blood from the pulmonary artery to the right radial artery?
Why would you want to do that. You would have to cut open the heart and watch the blood move from the pulmonary artery through the heart and into the right radial artery.
What is pulmonary arch?
There is a pulmonary trunk and an aortic arch in the heart. The pulmonary trunk sends oxygen poor blood from the right ventricle up through it to the lungs to gain oxygen and then comes back into the heart via the left atrium.The aortic arch sends out blood to the entire body from the left ventricle.
What artery carries oxygen-rich blood from the left ventricle of the heart to the body?
aortic arch
Which does not receive blood directly from the aortic arch?
Your heart via the coronary arteries
What is tortuous arch?
It is an aortic arch with an aneurysm.
Does the aortic arch have a high or low concentration of oxygenated blood?
The Aortic Arch (Arcus Aorta) contains a high concentration of oxygenated hemoglobine, since it just came out of the left chamber of the heart which is still fresh from the pulmonairy circuit
