cardiovascular system

which is going to result in significant agglutination

Donor is type AB, recipient is type B

tendons and ligaments have

a low degree of vascularization, therefore low perfusion and slow healing

which valve prevents the backflow of blood into the left ventricle when the ventricles relax?

aortic semilunar valve

the aggulitonegens (antigens) that determine the ABO and Rh. blood types

are found on the surface of erythrocytes

in an ecg, the p wave is generated when the

atria depolarizes

gas,nutrient, and waste exchange occur beween the

capillaries, and the tissues of the body

valves in the veins

cause venous blood flow to go in only one direction

which action leads to the closure to the right atrioventricular valve

contraction of the right ventricle

the main function of leukocytes is to

defend against pathogens

as a veous pathway moves closer to the heart, the veins

get larger

systolic Bp is recorded

in arteries and is the maximal pressure that is recorded during ventricular contraction

what are the cell-to-cell contacts of the cardiac muscle fibers called

intercalated discs

T-lymphocytes are a category of

lymphocytes

the layer of the heart wall composed of cardiac muscle tissue is the

myocardium

the heart valves

permit the passage of blood in one direction

the "buffy coat" in a centrifuged blood samples is composed of

platelets and leukocytes

which carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart

pulmonary veins

if someone were to decrease their food intake and increase aerobic excercise, the might lose adipose tissue and condition their muscles. these changes would also influence their blood vessels, as there would be

regression of blood vessels in adipose tissue and angiogenesis in skeletal muscle

which heart chambers contain deoxygenated blood

right atrium and right ventricle

which circuit of the cardiovascular system includes left ventricle and aorta

systemic circuit

which part of the ciruclatory system holds the largest amount of blood

systemic veins

human blood flow in the human body

there is undirectional blood flow arteries carry blood away from heart veins carry blood towards heart

which term best describes the function of blood when considering the presence of carbon dioxide and endocrine hormones?

transportation

in artieres, the thickest layer of the wall is the

tunica media

the first phase in hemostasis is

vascular spasms

atrial natriuretic peptide stimulates

vasodilation, increased urine output and therefore decreased blood pressure

a network of small arteries called the

vasorum provides a blood supply to the tunica externa of very large vessels

blood pressure is lowest in

veins
