Does the pulmonary vein contain oxygen poor blood?
Yes. After the right ventricle pumps the oxygen-poor blood to the lungs (through the pulmonary arteries), the pulmonary veins carry the oxygenated blood back to the left atrium of the heart.Because blood vessels are classified by whether they lead into or away from the heart, the pulmonary veins are carrying oxygenated blood, whereas the pulmonary arteries carry deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs.
What do capillaries and arteries have in common?
Vein carries oxygenated blood to the hear,arteries carries deoxygenated blood away from the heart while capillaries(as the name implies) is a tube connecting them together.they are connected to the heartabsolutely nothing
What if your heart rate increases why?
This is quite normal. As you begin to exercise, your body needs more oxygenated blood pumped round it and you hear naturally speeds up to supply the blood needed.
Where does the femoral vein carry blood to?
Femoral vein carries blood back to the hear from the legs.
How do arteries similar to veins?
Vein carries oxygenated blood to the hear,arteries carries deoxygenated blood away from the heart while capillaries(as the name implies) is a tube connecting them together.they are connected to the heartabsolutely nothing
What are the tubes next to the bronchial tubes?
They terminate at the alveolar sacs which contain the alveoli. Here inhaled O2 is exchanged for exhaled CO2 via the pulmonary veins (which transport de-oxygenated blood with CO2), to the pulmonary arteries (which transport oxygenated blood to the body). Both veins and arteries in this system receive and pump blood from the heart (veins to the heart under low pressure, and arteries from the hear under Hugh pressure. The entire system is called the cardio-pulmonary system.
What is blood pumped by?
blood is pumped around your body by your heart, that's why you hear your heart beating because it us pumping the blood around your body :)
Short note on heart?
the heart is a muscular organ which is as big as our fist. because both oxygen and carbon dioxide have to be transported by blood, the hear has different chambers to prevent the oxygen-rich blood from mixing with the blood containing carbon dioxide. the carbon dioxide rich blood has to reach the lungs for the carbon dioxide to be removed, and the oxygenated bolld from the lungs has to be brought back to the heart. this oxygen rich blood is then pumped to the rest of the body.
List 3 differences between arteries and veins?
1) Arteries carry blood away from the heart while veins carry blood to the heart. 2) Arteries have thick and muscular walls (as they have to endure higher pressure) whereas veins have thin and slightly muscular walls. 3) Arteries have no valves, while veins have valves. 4) Arteries (in the post-fetal human) carry oxygenated blood except for the pulmonary arteries. Veins (in the post-fetal human) carry de-oxygenated blood except for the pulmonary veins.
How many times does bees hear pump a min?
Bees and other insects don't have hearts in the way the higher animals do. They don't have blood, either, but do have a clear or yellowish fluid called hemolymph surrounding their tissues which carries nutrients around the body. The insects' movements tend to keep the hemolymph moving around their body.
Why do you go to mass?
To hear the Word of God, worship with others, and receive the Body and Blood of Christ in the Eucharist.
How does jogging benefit the body?
It exersizes the hear muscle and gets the blood flowing this strengthens the lung capacity.
