PPT-BLOOD VESSELS  (ARTERIES, VEINS AND CAPILLARIES)

The Circulatory System is known as a CLOSED SYSTEM because the blood is contained within either the heart or blood v essels at all times The blood vessels that are part of the . Blood Vessels. Our Goals Today.... Explain the difference between the five types of blood vessels.. Arteries, Veins, Arterioles, . Venules. and Capillaries. Identify and give the function (including where the vessel is carrying blood from and where it is carrying blood to) of each major blood vessel. venules. , and veins differ in size, structure, and function. Kelsee. , Aimee . How it works. Blood leaves heart through pulmonary trunk and aorta. Vessels branch forming major arteries that carry blood to body organs. SLO 2. Blood Vessels can be divided into five groups:. Arteries . Carry blood away from the heart towards tissues. The heart’s ventricles pump blood into the arteries. Blood Vessels. Arterioles. Small subdivisions of the arteries. The Pericardium – . membrane surrounding heart. Serous Pericardium . = 1. Parietal - outer layer. 2. Visceral - inner layer (part of . epicardium. ). Layers of Heart Wall. Epicardium. – outermost layer. Blood vessels and circulation. Blood is carried in a closed system of vessels that begins and ends at the heart. 5 types of blood vessels. Arteries – carries blood away from the heart. Arterioles – smallest arteries. Circulation. BIOL242. Lab . Pracicu. m. . Weds.?. On Chap . 16 – 19 (Endocrine & Cardiovascular Lab). Lab .

(2) tunica intima – simple squamous epithelium . . (3) tunica media – elastic connective tissue and smooth muscle . Delivery system of dynamic structures that begins and ends at the heart. Arteries: carry blood away from the heart; oxygenated except for pulmonary circulation and umbilical vessels of a fetus. Capillaries: contact tissue cells and directly serve cellular needs. What are the four main components of blood?. Describe the features of a red blood cell which aids it’s transportation of oxygen. Explain the journey an oxygen molecule takes from the alveoli to respiring tissues. .. The heart pumps oxygenated blood to the body and deoxygenated blood to the lungs. In the human . heart. there is one . atrium. and one . ventricle. for each circulation, and with both a systemic and a pulmonary circulation there are four chambers in total: . Terminology of the Blood. Blood brings oxygen and nutrients to body cells and removes waste products Whole blood is made up of plasma, which is a liquid portion, and the formed elements it contains.. blood vascular system. is composed of the following structures:. The . heart,. an organ whose function is to pump the blood.. The . arteries,. a series of efferent vessels that become smaller as they . Blood Vessels and Circulation. Five types of blood vessels:. (. 1) . Arteries. . Two . large arteries . are the aorta . and . pulmonary trunk. (. 2) . Arterioles. (. 3) . Capillaries. (. 4) .
