Which atrium receives oxygen-poor blood from the body?
The right atrium of the heart receives oxygen-poor blood from the body.
Which function does the circulatory system share with the heart?
The circulatory system and the heart work together to maintain blood pressure within a normal range of values
How many miles of arteries capillaries and veins are in the adult human body?
60,000 miles, or the equivalent of 2½ times around the world!
What vein connects directly to the right ventrical?
There is no vein that connects directly to the right ventricle. The inferior and superior vena cava enter the right atria and the pulmonary artery leaves the right ventricle.

How much blood is through a rabbit heart per day?
I dont think that there is really a way to find out, unless you put a microscopic device in the rabbits nervatory system that records dept, pulse rate, and motion of the blood. Sinceraly, Kiana
What is the blood flow path from the mitral valve to the great toe?
From mitral valve the blood will go to left ventricle. From there, the blood will go to ascending aorta. Then arch of aorta. Then descending aorta. Then abdominal aorta. Then to common iliac artery. then to external iliac artery. Which continue as the femoral artery. Then popliteal artery. Then posterior tibial artery. Then medial and lateral planter arteries. Then the branches will go to your great toe.

What separates the left and right of the heart?
septum of the heart divides heart into right and left, that portion of the septum between right and left atria is called (interatrial) septum, while the portion of septum between right and left ventricles is called (interventricular) septum.
Coronary bypass graft 2 venous and 1 arterial?

Can a blood vessel break in the head?
Yes, blood vessels in the head can break, leading to bleeding in the brain or around the brain. This can result from conditions like aneurysms, traumatic head injury, or high blood pressure, and can be serious and require immediate medical attention. Symptoms may include severe headaches, blurred vision, and neurological deficits.
This would be the vascular plants vascular tissue. The xylem carries water from the roots to the leaves and the pholem carries manufactured sugars from the leaves to the places in the plant where the sugars are needed.
Who discovered the circulatory system?
The heart, arteries and veins of the circulatory system were all well known t people from prehistoric times. Its true function was not known, however, until William Harvey (April 1, 1578 - June 3, 1657) showed that it recirculated the same blood throughout the body.
How do the Circulatory and Respiratory Systems interact?
The heart pumps blood into the lungs where the blood is oxygenated. The blood is then returned to the heart and the newly oxygenated blood is circulated to the rest of the body.
The respiratory system performs a process known as gas exchange that releases carbon dioxide from the body and brings in oxygen. This occurs in the lungs and the circulatory system then transports the oxygen to tissues that used internal respiration to burn fuel in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) for energy, thus creating more carbon dioxide.
You breathe in oxygen into your lungs. The oxygen diffuses across the thin walls of the alveoli in the lungs and the thin walls of the blood vessels in the lungs into the blood stream. Here it attaches to the hemoglobin molecules inside red blood cells. The red blood cells are carried by the blood vessels to all parts of the body. The hemoglobin releases oxygen in the periphery, and picks up carbon dioxide (CO2). The CO2 attached to the hemoglobin molecules in the red blood cells is then transported to the lungs, where it diffuses across the walls into the alveoli, and is breathed out.

What are the organs of a forg's circulatory system?
The organs of the frog's circulatory system are the heart and blood vessels. The blood vessels include veins, arteries, and capillaries.
System that brings nutrients and wastes from bone?
The circulatory system brings nutrients and wastes to and from the bone. These systems work closely together to maintain homeostasis.
The pleura are part of the respiratory system. The pleura are the membranous coverings of each lung.
What will happen to the body if blood fails to circulate?
The person will die if the blood does not circulate. Blood is necessary to supply food and oxygen to the body.
What is the pathway that blood takes through the body starting from the right atrium?
It helps to think of the right atrium as the ending point for the flow of blood; however, to answer you questions blood goes throughout the body from the right atrium as follows: right ventricle, left and right pulmonary arteries, lungs, air sacs within the lungs, left and right pulmonary veins, left atrium, left ventricle, aorta, to the upper and lower body, superior vena cave from upper body, inferior vena cave from lower body, back to the right atrium where the cycle starts again.
Why is the heart called pumping organ?
Because that's exactly what it does !... The heart muscles contract in a pulsing action - pumping blood through arteries and smaller vessels around the body.
