What are the three major circuits of the blood?
Systemic circuit- blood flow in the body Coronary circuit- blood flow in the heart Pulmonary circuit - blood flow in the lungs
Does the systematic circulation flow to the left atrium?
Yes, blood from both the inferior and the superior vena cava flow into the right atrium. Blood from the pulmonary veins coming from the lungs flow into the left atrium.
What is the difference between the pulmonay and systemic circuit?
The pulmonary circuit is blood flow movements from the pulmonary trunk to the left atrium...while the systemic circuit is a continuation from the left atrium all the way to the right atrium.......... Disclaimer [research for detailed blood movements in pulmonary circuit and systemic circuit if this isn't enough].
What are the three major circuits of blood flow?
Pulmonary circulation (between the heart and lungs) Systematic circulation (between the heart and the rest of the body) Coronary circulation (the heart's own blood supply/supply to cardiac tissue)
What is the flow of blood to the tissues of the heart?
coronary circulation
What sequence of blood flow can be observed in either a reptile or a mammal?
vena cava>right atrium>ventricle>pulmonary circuit
What is the step your step blood flow through the heart?
* Vena Cava * Right atrium * tricuspid valve * right ventricle * pulmonary valve * pulmonary artery * pulmonary circuit * pulmonary vein * left atrium * mitral (bicuspid) valve * left ventricle * aortic valve * aorta * systemic circuit
Why does decreased pulmonary blood flow cause cyanosis?
Decreased pulmonary blood flow alone does not cause cyanosis. It is when decreased pulmonary blood flow is associated with right to left shunting (ie Tetralogy of fallot) that it is associated with cyanosis.
What is the circuit called from the time a drop of blood is dropped in the right atrium to the time its dropped in the left atrium?
The vascular circuit that connects the right atrium to the left atrium is the pulmonary circulation.
Pulmonary circulation is the flow of blood to and from the?
lungs
What flow of blood to and from the lungs?
pulmonary circulation
What is the valve between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery?
The pulmonary or pulmonic valve (a semilunar valve) controls blood flow from the right ventricle to the "pulmonary trunk" that branches into the two pulmonary arteries carrying blood to the lungs.
