Are Renal circulation and portal circulation different and why?
no
How does systemic circulation work?
systemic circulation - BETWEEN the heart and lungs
Which of the two paths of blood circulation is shorter?
the systemic systemic circulation
What is the movement of blood in the body?
The circulation of blood throughout the body is called systemic circulation. It excludes the circulation of blood to the lungs (pulmonary) but includes the portal circulation (between the gastrointestinal tract and the liver).
What is the difference between pulmonary circulation coronary circulation and systematic circulation?
the circulation is divided into 2 circulations 1st is pulmonary circulation in which what happens is that when the pulmonary artery caring impure blood to the lungs for purification and the pure blood (oxygenated) in brought back from lungs to heart through pumonary vien, this is pulmonary circulation 2nd systematic circulation in this what happens is that the pure blood from the left ventricle is forced to all other part of the body through aorta to all the cells and tissues, after the diffusion in which stuffs are interchanged( carbon dioxide and glucose and oxygen) it is brought back to the heart through inferior or superior vena cava, this is systemic circulation Finally, the coronary circulation is the circulation of blood that feeds the heart itself, since it does not receive any oxygen from the systemic or pulmonary circulations.
What do the plumonary veins do?
a plumonary wein transports blood from a cat to a dog :)
Difference between plumonary circulation coronary circulation and systemic circulation?
systemic circulation carries blood from the heart to the body (with the exception of the lungs) and back again. Oxygenated blood is carried by the aorta from the left veintricle of the heart to the body tissue through the capillaries. The venous system then transports deoxygenatedblo from the body to the hearts right atrium via the vena cava.
Which artery carries deoxygenated blood?
The plumonary artery
What is the flow of blood to the tissues of the heart called?
Corronary circulation, via the left and right coronary arteries. These are the first branches off the ascending aorta and sub divide into the left anterior descending and the right posterior descending. These further divide into the marginal and thecircumflex branches. These feed all the major areas of the heart.
Is the right side of the pulmonary vein oxygenated?
Yes, the blood coming through the plumonary vein can from the lungs.
Which structure connects the aorta and the plumonary artery?
Arterial duct is the structure that connects the aorta and the pulmonary artery.
What is a plumonary artery?
Pulmonary artery is a vessel which carries blood from the right ventricle of the heart and splits into the left and right pulmonary artery to supply the lungs with blood.
How does the plumonary artery and the pulmonary vein differ from all other blood vessels?
pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood and pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood
How does fetal circulation differ from the circulation pattern after birth?
In fetal circulation, the placenta provides oxygen and nutrients to the fetus, so the lungs are not used for oxygen exchange - instead, a bypass called the ductus arteriosus shunts blood away from the lungs. After birth, the lungs take over oxygen exchange, the ductus arteriosus closes, and the foramen ovale between the atria closes, redirecting blood flow through the heart to support pulmonary circulation.
What are the bubble shape sacs in the lungs where gas exchange takes place?
The thin sacs in the lungs where the gas exchange takes place are called aveoli.
Trace the path of blood from vena cava to aorta?
vena cava -> right atrium-> through the right atrioventricular valve -> right ventricle -> through the Plumonary semi-lunar valve -> Plumonary trunk -> out the pulmonary artery -> lungs -> pulmonary veins -> left artrium -> through the left atrioventricular valve -> left ventricle -> through the aortic valve -> aorta -CB
What is double circulation?
the circulation from a lungs to the heart is called pulmonary circulation And the circulation from lungs to the body is called systematic circulation This two circulations is called double circulation
