Deoxygenated Flow
What side of the heart takes in deoxygenated blood flow?
Right (specifically the atrium)
How do you get oxygenated blood flow?
Breathe in and exhale carbon dioxide
What is the heart's function?
To pump blood through the body and oxygen around the body.
What is the Pulmonary Circulation job?
Pulmonary circulation moves blood between the heart and the lungs
what parts of the body are served by the systemic circulation
organs, tissues and cells with blood
Where does deoxygenated blood flow go through the body?
Superior and inferior vena cava
What side of the heart takes in oxygenated blood flow?
Left
Where is the heart located?
In the middle of your chest
What is included in the Pulmonary System?
Arteries, Veins and lymphatics.
What is included in the Systemic Circulation System?
The systemic circulation provides the functional blood supply to all body tissue.
What section of the heart carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs?
The pulmonary artery (PA)
What section of the heart carries oxygenated blood to the lungs?
Right Atrium (RA)
What system is the heart apart of?
Circulatory System
Where is the Pulmonary Circulation System located?
Pulmonary circulation transports oxygen-poor blood from the right ventricle to the lungs.
Where is the Systemic Circulation located?
left ventricle, through the arteries, to the capillaries in the tissues of the body
What causes deoxygenated blood flow?
Breathing that's too slow or shallow to meet the lungs' need for oxygen.
Are oxygenated blood rich or poor in blood flow?
Rich.
How much does a heart weigh?
Between 7 and 15 ounces
What kind of flow does the Pulmonary Circulation System carry?
Deoxygenated
What type of flow does the Systemic Circulatory System?
Oxygenated
Which organ receives deoxygenated blood flow?
The Liver
What is important about oxygenated blood flow?
It ensures that blood and oxygen continuously flow throughout the body, allowing every organ to function properly.
How many gallons of blood does the heart pump?
2,000 Gallons
What is the sequence of the Pulmonary Circulation System?
Right ventricle → Pulmonary artery → Lung capillaries → Pulmonary vein → Left atrium.
What is the correct sequence for systemic circulation?
left heart to the rest of the body, and returns deoxygenated blood back to the right heart via large veins known as the venae cava.
