Q

Capillaries

A

25
Diaphragm
a muscle that divides the thoraic cavity from the abdomen, contracts or flattens
26
Phraynx
an area of the throat behind the mouth and nasal cavity into the larynx
27
Stimuli
information from outside the body
28
Three layers of the heart
Epicardium is the outermost thin layer of connective tissues and fat protects the heart. Myocardium is the thickest middle layer that compose of special muscle cells that contact Endocardium is the thin inner most layer of the heart.
29
Cardiovascular
circulates blood, gases and nutrients to all cells and transports waste product away from the cells.
30
Respiratory
provides oxygen to all cells and rids of body of carbon dioxide
31
Nervous
sends, receives and interprets information from all over the body
32
Gastrointestine
takes in digests and absorbs nutrients to nourish cells
33
Urinary
processes and eliminates waste products from filtered blood
34
Endocrine
regulates body function bys producing and releasing hormones
35
Lymphatic immune
removes excess fluids and waste products from the cells throughout the body fights infections
36
Reproductive
produces hormones and male and female sex cells to make reproductive possible
37
Musculosketal
provides framework for the body protects internal organs allows for body movement and stability stores minerals
38
veins
carry blood toward the heart
39
two large veins
superior vena cava inferior vena cava to join together to return oxygen depleted blood to the right atrium
40
Pulmonary arteries
are the only arteries that carry deoxygenated blood
41
Arteries
carry away blood from the heart
42
Pulmonary veins
bring oxygenated blood back to the left atrium
43
Aorta
carries oxygenated blood from the left ventricle
44
heart pumps oxygen
depleted blood into the lungs and pumps oxygen-rich blood to the body
45
Septum
the right and left sides of the heart are separated by a wall
46
Interventricular septum
part between ventricle
47
Blood
is pumped to the body through small arteries that branch off from the aorta
48
Coronary arteries
supply oxygen and nutrients to the heart muscle
49
Left ventricle
has the thickest and most muscular wall of any of the chambers opening
50
Four major valves
Tricuspid valve Bicuspid valve Aortic valve Pulmonary valve
51
Tricuspid valve
(also called the right anrioventricular valve) is between the right atrium and right ventricular
52
Pulmonary valve
(also called the pulmonary semi lunar valve) is between the right ventricle and pulmonary artery
53
Bicuspid valve
(also called the mitral valve or left ventricular valve) is between the left atrium and left ventricle
54
Theortic valve
( also called the aortic semilunar valve) is between the left ventricle and the aorta
55
Cyanosis
blue/gray color, signs of hypoxia
56
Systole
contracts
57
Diastole
relaxes
58
Somatic nervous system
actions a person choose to make
59
Autonomic nervous system
actions that happen without choice. 2 divisions- sympatric and parsympathic
60
Ventricular contract
during a heart cycle, tricuspid and bicuspid valves are closed. The pulmonary and aortic valves are open
61
Systemic circuit
whole body and heart
62
Four elements for blood
45%
63
Between the septum
interatrium
64
Inhaling
muscles are contracting
65
Alveoli and capillaries
exchnage oxygen and CO 2
66
