The tubes of the cardiovascular system are the following:

  • Arteries - carry blood away from the heart
  • Capillaries - allow diffusion of the dissolved substances in the plasma
  • Veins - carry blood towards the heart

Is blood considered an organ of the cardiovascular system?

Yes, blood is not considered an organ of the cardiovascular system. Blood is a fluid connective tissue that circulates through the cardiovascular system, which consists of the heart and blood vessels.


When fluid bathes the cells it is called interstitial fluid when it flows through the lymphatic vessels it is called lymph?

Yes, interstitial fluid is the fluid that surrounds cells in the body's tissues, while lymph is the fluid that circulates through the lymphatic system. Lymph is derived from interstitial fluid that has entered the lymphatic vessels and is rich in immune cells and protein, playing a crucial role in immune response and fluid balance in the body.


What is the origin of lymph?

The orgin on lymph is this: the cardiovascular system pumps blood through its system but it cannot return all the fluid from the body cells. The lymph system picks up 60%of the fluid dropped off at the cellular level, at this point we are talking about interstial fluid, the IF picks up plasma and becomes tissue fluid. The tissue fluid is then picked up my lymph capillaries, the tissue fluid is now called lymph.


Into what space does fluid flow from the cerebral aqueduct?

The fourth ventricle is the space that fluid from the cerebral aqueduct flows. The cerebral aqueduct is a part of the ventricle system in the brain.


What are two body systems in terms of blood flow?

If I'm reading what you're asking correctly, the circulatory system is made up of the cardiovascular system and the lymphatic system. The cardiovascular system transports blood and other nutrients (and blood wastes) throughout the body. The lymphatic system provides an accessory route to transport filtered blood plasma to/from interstitial fluid and the blood. The cardiovascular system works with the peripheral nervous system to maintain the pumping of the heart as well as blood pressure (through vasodilation/vasoconstriction), and the respiratory system (influx of oxygen to blood, efflux of carbon dioxide from blood). The endocrine system also has effects, modulating electrolyte and water levels, which affects blood pressure.

How does fluid travel between the cardiovascular system and the lymphatic system?

no


What is the flow rate equation and how is it used to calculate the rate at which a fluid flows through a system?

The flow rate equation is Q A V, where Q is the flow rate, A is the cross-sectional area of the pipe or system, and V is the velocity of the fluid. This equation is used to calculate the rate at which a fluid flows through a system by multiplying the cross-sectional area of the pipe by the velocity of the fluid. This helps determine how much fluid is moving through the system per unit of time.


What system partners with the cardiovascular system by returning fluid to the body?

Lymphatic.


Which system partners with the cardiovascular system by returning fluid to the body?

respiratory


What system that flows a interstitial fluid?

Tissue fluid is returned to circulation through the what?

Tissue fluid is returned to circulation through the lymphatic system, where it is collected in lymph capillaries and transported back to the bloodstream through lymphatic vessels.


Excess plasma fluid in the tissues is returned to the cardiovascular system by what?

Lymphatic system


What Body system that promotes exchange of nutrients and wastes pressurized fluid?

Cardiovascular System


What type of tissue is important in assisting the cardiovascular system by collecting excess tissue fluid and eventually returning it to the cardiovascular system?

Lymphatic tissue is crucial for assisting the cardiovascular system by collecting excess interstitial fluid, which is then transformed into lymph. This lymph is transported through lymphatic vessels and eventually returned to the bloodstream, helping to maintain fluid balance in the body. Additionally, lymphatic tissue plays a role in immune function by filtering pathogens and supporting immune responses.


Can installing a swivel joint in my fluid system improve flow efficiency?

No. A swivel joint is a way of controlling where fluid flows, not the efficiency at which it flows.


Where does fluid flow from the cerebral aqueduct?

The fourth ventricle is the space that fluid from the cerebral aqueduct flows. The cerebral aqueduct is a part of the ventricle system in the brain.
