Venous anastomoses along the GI tract provide a "safety valve" through which venous blood can drain, bypassing the blocked liver and relieving the hypertension. Diff: 3 Page Ref: 613-616

Define and explain the significance of vascular anastomoses.

: A vascular anastomosis is a "coming together" of either arteries or veins. Vascular anastomoses are alternative pathways for blood flow. These pathways are called collateral channels. Arterial anastomoses often occur around joints providing alternative pathways for blood to flow when movement of a joint impinges upon flow through other vessels. The anastomosis ensures adequate perfusion of the tissue. Venous anastomoses provide multiple pathways for drainage. Blockage of a single vein rarely blocks blood flow or leads to tissue death.

Explain the difference in muscles used for active inspiration and expiration.

: Active inspiration involves the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles. Additionally, the scalenes, sternocleidomastoid, and pectoralis minor may also be involved. Active expiration involves relaxation of the diaphragm and contraction of the internal intercostals, oblique and transverse abdominis muscles, and, in certain circumstances, the latissimus dorsi.

Describe the structure of a mesentery, and then identify and describe the location of two ventral and two dorsal mesenteries.

: Answer: A mesentery consists of two serous membranes that sandwich blood vessels and nerves in between. The mesentery extends from the abdominal wall to intraperitoneal organs, supporting the organs and fixing them to the wall. The two ventral mesenteries are the falciform ligament, which attaches the liver to the anterior wall and diaphragm, and the lesser omentum, which attaches the lesser curvature of the stomach to the liver. The dorsal mesenteries include the greater omentum, mesentery proper, transverse mesocolon, and sigmoid mesocolon. The greater omentum attaches the greater curvature of the stomach to the posterior abdominal wall. The mesentery proper connects the jejunum and ileum to the posterior abdominal wall. The two mesocolons attach to the region of the colon for which they are named. Diff: 2 Page Ref: 680-681

The enteric plexus includes neurons from both the submucosal and myenteric plexuses. The submucosal nerve plexus, located in the submucosa, innervates the secretory glands of the mucosa.

Describe the function of the fetal shunts from the pulmonary circuit.

Only about half of the blood entering the right atrium is diverted through the foramen ovale. Much of the remainder of the blood that proceeds through the right ventricle and into the pulmonary trunk then enters the second shunt. This ductus arteriosus connects the pulmonary trunk directly to the arch of the aorta. This blood then continues to the systemic circuit.

Identify and describe the functions of the lymphatic system.

: The lymphatic system recovers tissue fluid and leaked plasma proteins and returns them to the bloodstream.

Lastly, it picks up dietary fats from the intestines and transports them into the bloodstream. Diff: 2 Page Ref: 628

Identify the space into which an oocyte is ovulated, and describe the structures and mechanisms involved in transporting it to the uterus.

: The oocyte is ovulated into the peritoneal cavity. Currents, created by the motion of the fimbria of the oviduct, draw the oocyte into the infundibulum. Ciliated columnar cells lining the oviduct create currents that move the oocyte through the ampulla, to the isthmus, and into the uterus. The journey of the oocyte is assisted by peristaltic contractions of the smooth muscle in the oviduct walls. Diff: 2 Page Ref: 757

Describe the structure and function of the pleural cavity.

: The pleural cavity is a fluid-filled space between the parietal and visceral serous membranes of the thoracic cavity. These membranes, the pleurae, create pleural fluid that lubricates the contact between opposing surfaces of the lungs and thoracic cavity wall. This fluid prevents friction during inspiration and expiration. The surface tension of the fluid also keeps the lungs expanded against the thoracic walls, preventing collapse of the lung.

Describe how blood flow is regulated (a) to whole organs, (b) within tissues, and (c) to capillary beds.

: Blood flow to groups of organs or to individual organs is regulated by the muscular arteries. Sympathetic vasomotor fibers innervating their walls constrict or dilate the arteries to divert or enhance blood flow. A similar regulatory system occurs within tissues via vasoconstriction of arterioles. Sympathetic stimulation can cause vasoconstriction of arterioles to increase systemic blood pressure. Alternatively, local chemical conditions within metabolically active tissues can cause local vasodilation of the arterioles. These chemical factors also cause relaxation of the precapillary sphincters allowing greater perfusion of capillary beds within the tissues. Diff: 2 Page Ref: 589-592

Describe the structure and function of the filtration slit and membrane.

Finally, the pedicles of the podocytes form the third layer of the membrane. These also prevent proteins from passing through the slits. Diff: 2 Page Ref: 725-726

Describe the mechanisms of propulsion by which sperm are transported from the seminiferous tubules to the epididymis and, during ejaculation, from the epididymis out of the body.

: Sperm are carried to the epididymis on a current of testicular fluid that is continuously produced by sustentocytes. The positive pressure of the fluid production forces the nonmotile sperm forward. Additionally, myoid cells that surround the seminiferous tubules rhythmically contract, helping to squeeze the sperm out of the testes. During ejaculation, smooth muscle cells in the epididymis and ductus deferens propel sperm by strong peristaltic contractions. Finally, the bulbospongiosus muscle covering the bulb of the penis contracts, propelling semen through the spongy urethra. Diff: 2 Page Ref: 747-748, 752

Describe the structures involved in the descent of the testes.

: The testes descend from the lumbar region of the abdominal cavity to the pelvic region. The vaginal process, an extension of the parietal peritoneum protrudes through an opening in the muscles of the anterior abdominal wall to create the inguinal canal. The testes descend through this canal into the scrotum during the seventh month of fetal development. The mechanism for the descent of the testes is not known, however their movement from the abdominopelvic cavity is guided by a fibrous cord called the gubernaculum. This cord connects from the scrotal floor to the testis. As it shortens, the testes move through the inguinal canal. Diff: 2 Page Ref: 777-778

Describe all the anatomical changes to the larynx that account for the deeper voice of men compared to women.

: The thyroid cartilage of males grows larger than in females, and its laryngeal prominence protrudes further anteriorly. The vocal ligaments, which stretch from the arytenoid cartilage to the thyroid cartilage, are therefore longer in males. Longer cords vibrate more slowly than do shorter cords, resulting in a deeper voice. Diff: 2 Page Ref: 654

Explain the significance of the intimate anatomical relationship between the nephrons and the peritubular capillaries and vasa recta.

: The vast majority, 99%, of the filtrate that is removed from the blood must be resorbed from the nephrons. If this fluid were not resorbed, the body would quickly dehydrate. All ions, solutes, and water that are resorbed from the nephron pass into the surrounding peritubular capillaries and return to the cortical radiate vein. Sodium and water resorbed from the nephron loop are picked up by the vasa recta and returned to the cortical radiate vein. Diff: 2 Page Ref: 730

Compare and contrast the construction of the bladder and ureter walls.

: The walls of both the bladder and ureter consist of three layers: a mucosa of transitional epithelium, a muscularis layer, and an external adventitia. The muscularis of the ureter consists of two layers of smooth muscle, circular and inner longitudinal, for most of its length, then adds a third external longitudinal layer at its distal end. The bladder has all three layers of smooth muscle. The adventitia of the bladder is replaced with parietal peritoneum on its superior surface. Diff: 2 Page Ref: 731-733

Describe how the structure of the proximal convoluted tubule walls reflects its function in filtrate processing.
