A & P 2 FINAL

the ______ emerges from the abdominal aorta and branches off to supply blood to the organs of the superior abdominal cavity

The major vessel that moves DEOXYGENATED blood away from the heart and to the lungs

The _____ is generally the thickest layer in the arteries and is mainly composed of smooth muscle

In conductive cells, outflux of _________ions results in repolarization

blood samples are commonly taken from the ____

the ____ has the highest inherent rate if depolarization and is known as the pacemaker of the heart

A normal and slow influx of _____ ions create a spontaneous depolarization of prepotential depolarization

Major vessel that moves OXYGENATED blood away from the heart

the ______ of the vessel makes up the wall of the lumen

the ______ is located between the right atrium and ventricle

the brachiocephalc trunk branches upward to the neck to become the _____

the major vessel the moves OXYGENATED blood to the heart from the lungs

the ____ is specialized clump of myocardial conducting cells, located in the inferior portion of the right atrium

The heart is located in the...

_____ capillaries have openings large enough to allow the exchange of plasma proteins and cells

in a clinical setting, pulse rate is commonly taken by palpating the...

The ____ is a remnant of an opening in the right atrium of the fetal heart

the ___ holds the blood vessels in place and is composed of substantial sheath of connective tissue

during fetal development most of the blood is pumped from the right ventricle into the pulmonary trunk is diverted to the aorta through the ____

The ___ is the muscular wall that separates the left and right ventricles

_____,strong strands of connective tissue, attach to the flaps of the mitral and tricuspid valve to prevent back flow of blood

the _____ is a specialized pathway that conducts the impulse directly from the right atrium to the left atrium

the ______ is a large, thin walled vessel on the posterior surface of the heart empties directly into the right atrium

in contractile cells, depolarization is caused by the rapid influx of positive ____ ions

The _____ drains nutrient rich blood from the digestive tract for processing by the liver

The ____ branches from the abdominal aorta and supplies blood to the lower limbs

the left gonadal vein drains into the left renal vein

a sphygmomanometer is used to measure blood pressure

a normal reading for systolic pressure in an adult is 120
Hg

The left ventricle has more myocardium than the right because it needs to pump blood into the pulmonary circuit

membrane potential in cardiac conductive cells slowly rise from an intial value of -90 mV to about 40 mV

in contractile cells, depolarization is followed by a plateau phase, in which membrane potential declines relatively slow due to the opening of fast calcium ion channels

diastole refers to the period of contraction that the heart undergoes while it pumps blood into circulation

electroencephalograms are used to trace the complex, compound electrical signal of the heart.

the left gonadal vein drains directly into the inferior vena cava

___ transports iron across intestinal cell plasma membranes and from storage sites into tissue fluids where it enters the blood stream

____ blood contains both anti A and anti B antibodies in the plasma

___ cells of pancreatic islets produce glucagon

____ are mainly involved in phagocytosis of bacteria

____ is caused by poor absorption of vitamin B12 often seen in patients with crotinic disease

high osmolarity, which can occur during dehydration, signals the release of ____

____ is an inherited condition where RBC maturation does not proceed normally: the most secure form is cooley's anemia

_____ plasma protein that aids in the transport of fatty acids and steroid hormones

calcitonin decreases blood calcium concentrations by all of the following mechanism except

______ is the pigment that gives fces it typical brown color

glucagon regulates blood glucose levels by the following mechanisms except:

hyperproduction of GH in the adult leads to a condition known as

_____ triggers the development of megokaryocytes

erythrocytes manufacture many mitochondria in order to process the large amounts of oxygen present in cells

lmyphoid stem cells give rise to all of the formed elements

gonadotropins stimulate the release of GrRH by the anterior pituitary

partial pressure of oxygen in the alveoli is 104mmHg, wheras its partial pressure in the blood is about 40mmHg . This causes______

When oxygen binds to a hemoglobin molecule, ______

Which of the following factors play a role in the oxygen-hemoglobin saturation dissociation curve?

the ____ includes blood and lymphatic vessels which transport absorbed nutrients
