Which side of the heart is responsible for the pulmonary circuit?
What antigens do a type AB+ blood cell have?
A antigen, B antigen, and Rh antigen
Name the granular white blood cells
Neutrophil, Eosinophil, and Basophil
What tissue subtype is present in the tunica interna/intimia?
Simple squamous epithelium
SA node -> atria
SA node -> AV node -> bundle of His -> left and right bundle branches -> Purkinje fibers
What does erythropoietin do in someone who has hypoxia?
Erythropoietin secreted by the kidneys will increase red blood cell production in the red bone marrow which will increase oxygen levels in the blood
This type of white blood cells increase in numbers when parasitic worms and an allergic reaction is present
Eosinophil
Elastic arteries have a thicker _____ _____ than muscular arteries while muscular arteries have a ticker _____ _____
Tunica media; tunica externa
Name the coverings and walls of the heart from superficial to deep
Fibrous pericardium -> parietal pericardium -> serous fluid -> visceral pericardium (epicardium) -> myocardium -> endocardium
This stem cell develops into red blood cells
Myeloid stem cells
This type of white blood cell increase in numbers in the presence of bacterial infection, inflammation, stress, and burns
Neutrophil
Smooth muscles in the tunica media causes ________ when there is sympathetic nervous system stimulation
vasoconstriction
Name the veins that deliver deoxygenated blood to the right atrium
Why are red blood cells anucleate and lack mitochondria?
A lack of nucleus allows for a higher concentration of hemoglobin and a biconcave shape for increased surface area and flexibility. They lack mitochondria so they don't use the oxygen they carry.
This type of white blood cell attack virus, fungi, transplanted cells and cancer cells
T cells
These capillaries have intercellular clefts and a basement membrane. They are located in the lungs and skin.
Continuous capillaries
Endocarditis leads to valvular stenosis (stiff valve flaps). What would happen to a person with this condition?
A person's blood is suspected to have a too high concentration of H+. Is the blood acidic or basic?
Acidic
This type of white blood cell develop into plasmacytes and produces antibodies to destroy bacteria/inactive toxins
B cells
These capillaries have larger intercellular clefts and are more porous. They are located in the spleen and liver.
Sinusoid capillaries
