What chamber of the heart receives venous blood from the systemic circuit?
After it makes its circuit throughout the body, blood must return to the heart. the veins carry the blood back toward the heart via the superior and inferior vena cava. The vena cava empty into the right atrium of the heart to begin the cycle again.
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.
What makes up the renal portal system?
It is made up of the afferent arteriole which supplies blood to the kidneys. The glomerulus, which is the first capillary bed produces filtrate. The efferent arteriole takes blood from the kidneys. The peritubular capillary system, which is the second capillary bed reclaims most of the filtrate. Filtrate is what eventually becomes urine.
How do you balance this equation co2 plus h2o c6h12o6 plus 6o2?
6co2 + 6h2o -> c6h12o6 + 6o2 Site messes up again! All letters capitals
How does the blood flow through systemic circulation?
Blood that comes from the left side of the heart is full of oxygen and nutrients. Nutrients are substances that your body needs to live, like protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. This blood brings the oxygen and nutrients to your body. This blood in systemic arteries that is full of oxygen and nutrients is systemic arterial blood. It is sometimes just called arterial blood. The biggest systemic artery in the body is the aorta. This is the large blood vessel that comes out of the heart. Smaller arteries branch off from the aorta. These arteries have smaller arteries that branch off from them. The smallest arteries turn into arterioles. The smallest blood vessels are capillaries. Systemic arterioles turn into capillaries. The blood from arterioles goes into the capillaries. There oxygen and nutrients go out of the blood into the tissue around the capillaries. The blood also picks up carbon dioxide and waste from the tissue. The network of capillaries that brings blood to an area is called a capillary bed. On the other end of the capillary, it turns into a venule. Venules are the smallest veins. Veins take blood back to the heart. As veins go back to the heart, they get bigger. The biggest systemic veins in the body are the vena cava. There are two vena cava. The inferior vena cavatakes blood from the lower part of the body to the right side of the heart. (In medicine, inferior means below.) The superior vena cava takes blood from the upper part of the body to the heart. (In medicine, superior means above.)
Where is the Superior vena cava?

What is the largest vein in the human heart?
The great saphenous vein is a superficial vein that runs up the inside of the leg. It's the longest vein in the body.
Does the Inferior vena cava contain oxygenated blood or does it contain deoxygenated blood?
The Inferior vena cava - just like the Superior vena cava -, returns blood to the heart. When blood is returning to the heart, that blood is already circulated in the body, therefore it is already downloaded the oxygen to the body tissues, and picked up the carbon dioxide from them. From the vena cava (superior and inferior), the blood enters the heart (right atrium), is pumped into the right ventricle, and then pumped into the lungs (through the Pulmonary Arteries), where carbon dioxide is exchanged for oxygen. So, the blood in the vena cava is deoxygenated.
Where is the inferior vena cava located?
The vena cava are two sets of veins: the superior vena cava, and the inferior vena cava. The inferior vena cava is the longest vein in the body. The superior vena cava mainly (by volume) brings deoxygenated blood from regions of the body above/at the level of the heart & the arms. The azygous vein anastomoses with the superior vena cava, and thus the superior vena cava receives blood from both sides of the posterior wall of the thorax, via the azygous vein and hemiazygous vein. In some individuals anastomoses may occur between the azygous & hemiazyous vein with the right & left renal veins, respectively, and/or the inferor vena cava. Therefore blood returning to the heart via the abdomen or kidneys may also pass through the superior vana cava to the heart. The inferor vena cava returns blood, mainly from the level below the diaphragm down to the feet, to the heart.
The blood supply returns from the legs through the?
venous system, specifically the femoral veins and the popliteal vein. Blood then flows up through the inferior vena cava to the heart.
Does Mel Gibson have a role model?
The Inferior vena cava - just like the Superior vena cava returns blood to the heart.When blood is returning to the heart, that blood is already circulated in the body, therefore it is already downloaded the oxygen to the body tissues, and picked up the carbon dioxide from them.From the vena cava (superior and inferior), the blood enters the heart (right atrium), is pumped into the right ventricle, and then pumped into the lungs (through the Pulmonary Arteries), where carbon dioxide is exchanged for oxygen.So, the blood in the vena cava is deoxygenated.
The function of vena cava?
The inferior vena cava is one of two veins which carries deoxygenated blood from the body into the right atrium of the heart, the other vein is the superior vena cava: inferior deals with blood coming from body areas below the heart, superior deals with blood coming from above the heart.
What is the largest veins in the human body?
The five main veins in the human body are: 1) Inferior vena cava 2) Pulmonary vein 3) Portal vein 4) Right femoral vein 5) Left femoral vein Additional main veins include the right and left jugular veins, hepatic veins, superior and inferior mesenteric veins ...
If water were poured into the vena cava through which vessels will it emerge from the heart?
it enters the right atrium via the vena cava, then goes down pass the tricuspids valves and into the right ventricle, from there it goes up pass the semi lunar valve at the base of the pulmonary artery and come out from there.
What brings blood to heart?
In general, veins are the blood vessels that bring blood to the heart. Blood that has already been circulated to the tissues and released its oxygen returns to the heart by the superior vena cava (from the upper body) and inferior vena cava (from the lower body). Blood is then sent to the lungs to pick up oxygen, and it returns to the heart by the pulmonary veins.
What is the path that oxygen poor blood takes through the heart?
Oxygen-poor, or deoxyginated blood starts in the right atrium, goes through the right atrioventricular valve and enters the right ventricle. It then goes through the pulmonary valve into the pulmonary trunk. It then goes through pulmonary arteries to the lungs, enters the capillaries in the lungs to pick up oxygen, then returns to the heart through the pulmonary veins and into the left atrium. This is the path of de-oxygenated blood
Name the parts that carry blood?
The parts that carry blood would be veins, capillaries, pulmonary valves, pulmonary arteries, superior vena cava, interior vena cava, aorta, and the left and right ventricles. Other than the heart, blood is carried all throughout the body. It goes from the heart into the lungs all the way up to the brain and down through the feet of a person.
