The carotid arch of a frog refers to the arterial structure that branches from the heart and supplies blood to the head and neck region. In amphibians like frogs, the carotid arch divides into the left and right carotid arteries, which further branch out to provide oxygenated blood to the brain and other facial structures. This adaptation is crucial for their respiratory and metabolic needs, especially during their active lifestyles.

Name the arteries present in a frog?

What is the name of the arterie that extend up 2 the frogs head?
The artery that extends up to a frog's head is called the carotid artery. It is responsible for supplying blood to the head and brain. In frogs, the carotid artery branches off from the aortic arch and plays a crucial role in their circulatory system.
Where are the sensors for the arterial baroreceptor located?
In the carotid sinus and the aortic arch
What is the third vessel that arises from aortic arch?
The arch of the aorta has three large arteries arising from it: the brachiocephalic, the left common carotid and the left subclavian. The brachiocephalic divides into the right common carotid and the right subclavian.
What are baroreceptors in the carotid sinus and aortic arch sensitive to?
changes in arterial pressure
What in the carotid sinuses and aortic arch detect increases in blood pressure?
baroreceptors
What are the left branch off the aortic arch?
The three branches off the aortic arch arethe brachiocephalic arteryleft common carotid Arteryleft subclavian Artery.
Compare origins of the carotid arteries of a human to those of a cat?
In the human, the right common carotid artery branches from the brachiocephalic artery, whereas the left common carotid artery comes directly from the aortic arch. In the cat, both common carotid arteries branch from the brachiocephalic artery.
What are the 3 large arteries branching from the aortic arch?
Brachiocephalic, Left common carotid, and Left subclavian
What are the blood vessels of the aorta arch?
Brachiocephalic Trunk,Left common Carotid artery,left subclavian artery
Is blood regulated by negative or positive feedback?
negative feedback via baroreceptors in the carotid artery and aortic arch
Where are the sensory receptors sensitive to changes in oxygen levels in the blood located?
The baroreceptors, located in the carotid sinuses, respond to changes and absolute levels of blood pressure. These nerves go to centers in the brain stem and trigger changes in heart rate and venous tone.
