Blood
The type of tissue that blood is.
What is connective tissue?
I have NO antigens, but ALL of the antibodies. What type am I? (don't forget positive or negative)
Type O-
The two AV valves.
What are tricuspid and bicuspid (mitral) valves?
A normal blood pressure reading.
What is 120/80?
The lung that has 3 lobes.
What is the right lung.
Three functions of blood.
(any of the three will count):
Transport of oxygen and/or nutrients
Waste removal
Transport of hormones
Regulation of body temperature
Regulation of pH
Regulation of fluid volume
Protection from infection
Prevents blood loss
I have A antigens and B antibodies, what type am I?
Type A
The chamber of the heart with the thickest walls.
What is the left ventricle?
The type of cells that start AP in the heart, so that no neural stimulation is required.
What are pacemaker cells?
The "zone: that warms, humidifies, and filters air as it travels to the respiratory zone.
What is the conducting zone?
The part of blood that is nonliving.
What is plasma?
I have A and B antigens, but Rh antibodies, what type am I?
AB-
The chamber of the heart that receives deoxygenated blood from the body.
What is the right atrium?
The main type of tissue found in the heart.
The anatomical name for "throat".
Pharynx
The three parts that make up the "formed elements" of blood.
What are white blood cells (leukocytes), platelets (thrombocytes) and red blood cells (erythrocytes)?
I am considered the universal recipient, what type am I?
AB+
The semilunar valve that prevents back flow into the left ventricle.
What is the aortic valve?
The chambers that are considered the "receiving chambers"?
What are the atria?
When the diaphragm contracts and the thoracic cavity increases in volume, what happens to pressure, and which way does air move (must answer both parts).
Pressure: decreases
Air: rushes INTO the lungs
Having THIS type of antigen makes any blood type positive.
Rh antigen
The only arteries in the body that carry deoxygenated blood.
What are the pulmonary arteries?
What are capillaries?
What is the epiglottis?
The three steps of blood clotting.
What is: 1) vascular spasm, 2) platelet plug formation 3) coagulation
Scenario: you are in a terrible accident. You are losing lots of blood very quickly. Your thrombocytes are helping to clot fast enough and no coagulation is happening. EMS arrives on scene. There is NO time to check your blood type, they need to do a transfusion immediately. What type of blood do they grab (don't forget positive/negative)?
O-
The tendons that are attached to both atrioventricular valves, and attach the flaps to the ventricle walls. Also referred to as the "heart strings."
What are the chordae tendinae?
The percent of your body weight that is blood.
What is 8%?
The path air travels from the outside, all the way to the alveoli of the lungs, in order.
What is nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli?
