which of the following veins does not drain into the inferior vena cava? renal suprarenal common illiac Hepatic (portal) vien
hepatic vein
Portal hypertension.
high pressure in the portal vein
gi tract
important site of porto-systemic anastomosis, i:e portal and systemic venous blood normally go their own way, but should there be a problem in either circulation, blood is rerouted through anastomotic channels which open up, and can pose a problem, like esophageal varices in hepatic cirrhosis.
The branches of the common carotid artery are: 1) Internal and external carotid 2) Anterior and middle cerebral 3) Facial and maxillary 4) Subclavian and vertebral
internal and external carotid

Systemic venous circulation
involves veins, draining into the inferior vena cava (IVC).At the lower end of the esophagus, part of the veins drain into the IVC and part go into the portal vein. If the portal vein is blocked as in cases of cirrhosis, (cirrhosis causes degeneration of the liver, and regeneration occurs in a haphazard way, and blocks the branches of the portal vein), Blood can't drain into the portal vein, so the anastomotic channels open up between these veins and veins draining into the IVC. These channels carry more blood now, and become enlarged and fragile, and are called varices. These are present just under the mucosa, and tend to get injured easily and bleed. Such bleeding can be fatal. Such anastomoses are also present in the anal canal/ rectal region, where if enlarged give rise to hemorrhoids.
If one of the coronary arteries were blocked this would lead to?
lack of oxygenated blood to the cardiac muscle in that area
If one of the coronary arteries was blocked, this would lead to..? 1) inadequate removal of CO2 from the heart muscle 2) deep vein thrombosis 3) fluid in the pericardial cavity, resulting in a lowered heart rate 4) lack of oxygenation to the cardiac muscle in that area

circulation
Blood vessels which take blood away from the heart are called arteries, while vessels which return blood to the heart are veins. Arteries branch and become smaller, while veins receive tributaries, and become larger as they near the heart. We say that arteries supply an area, and veins drain an area.When arteries branch out they become smaller till they reach the capillary stage. There is an arterial end to the capillaries and a venous end to the capillaries. This is how,blood taken away from the heart, is carried to distant areas, through arteries, where exchange of oxygen and nutrients takes place at the capillary level. Also at the capillary level, wastes and CO2 are returned to the circulation, at the venous end, and small veins are formed, which join to form larger veins, till all of the blood is brought back to the heart.
