What is the mean of hepatic?
Hepatic is referring to the liver. For another example, your kidneys are referred to as "renal".
How does blood flow to renal and fortal circulation?
Blood flows to the renal circulation through the renal artery, which branches off the abdominal aorta. Once in the kidneys, blood is filtered and waste products are removed. Portal circulation transports blood from the digestive organs to the liver through the hepatic portal vein. In the liver, nutrients are processed and toxins are removed before the blood is distributed to the rest of the body.
What is unusual about the hepatic portal vein?
The hepatic portal vein in frogs is unusual in that it is divided into two portals, the hepatic and the renal. In higher vertebrates, the hepatic portal system is the only one present.
Where is the location of the interlobar vein?
interlobar arteries are vessels of the renal circulation which supply the renal lobes: interlobar veins are veins of the renal circulation which drain the renal lobes.
Why is the renal portal system absent in humans?
Humans have a hepatic portal system that brings all the venous flow from the digestive system into the liver. Reptiles have a renal portal system, which brings blood from internal organs to their kidneys, mostly because their digestive tract and urinary tract only have the cloaca to eliminate waste from their body. Since humans have separate systems for eliminating waste, the anus and urethra, the human body, like all other mammals, developed a hepatic portal system.
What is the difference between renal failure and kidney failure?
They are the same.
Can anyone explain the renal circulation?

What are the PORTAL systems in the human body?
Portals systems in the human body refer to blood vessels that allow for the transport of blood between two different organ systems before returning to the heart. The hepatic portal system, for example, carries nutrient-rich blood from the digestive system to the liver for processing.
What are the three major branches of the systemic circulation?
The systemic circulation includes three parts. The coronary circulation, the hepaticportal circulation and the renal circulation
Do kidneys receive blood through the renal vein?
Kidneys receive blood from systemic circulation via the RENAL ARTERIES, the blood flows through them and re-enters systemic circulation via the RENAL VEINS
What are the 4 blood circulation?
it is 5. the pulmonary,systemic,renal,portal, coronary circulation
Which vessel carries blood with the least carbon dioxide?
By definition arteries always carry blood away from the heart and veins carry it to the heart.Most arteries carry blood with the least amount of carbon dioxide. But there is an exception. The arteries that carry blood to the lungs is very high in carbon dioxide.
