Term
How many type of circulatory systems are there?
Definition
two
Term
What are the two types of circulatory systems?
Definition
open and closed
Term
What does the circulatory system do?
Definition
transports oxygen to cells and waste carbon dioxide away
Term
What are open circulatory systems found in?
Definition
invertebrates, such as clams and insects
Term
How does the open system aid circulation?
Definition
body movement can aid circulation by squeezing sinuses and pushing blood back into the heart
Term
What is "blood"/fluid called in an open system?

Hemolymph
Term
What are the four structures in an open circulatory system?
Definition

Antierior vessel

lateral vessels

ostia

tubular heart

Term
What are closed circulatory system found in?
Definition

Earthworms (annelids),

squids &octopus (cephalopods)

vertebrates

Term
Why do annelids have a closed cuculatory system?
Definition
They live in low oxygen environment
Term
Which is less effective? an open or closed circulatory system?
Definition
open because it is less effective at circulating all the fluid
Term
What is another name for the closed circulatory system?
Definition
cardiovascular system
Term
What are the three parts of the cardiovascular system?
Definition
heart,blood vessels, blood
Term
What are some major points of blood vessels?
Definition
Arteries transport blood away
Term
What do arteries do? describe them
Definition
A blood vessel moving blood away from the heart, they are thicker walled
Term
What do veins do? describe them
Definition
Bring blood toward the heart, they have valves
Term
What is hemoglobin?
Definition
a respritory protein, binds to 4 osygen molecules, concentration is millimolar
Term
Are there different types of hemoglobin?
Definition
yes
Term

ICLicker question:

Athletic blood dping is where the number of red blood cells and hemoglobin is increased by blood transfusion of taking drugs like EPO. More hemoglobin in the blood:

A) Increases oxygen affinity and makes the athlete's hemoglobin perform more like fetal hemoglobin

B) Increases the amount of oxygen the blood can carry, bun does no affect oxygen affinity

Definition
B
Term
What does High pH lead to?
Definition
Low Co2 in lungs
Term
What does low pH lead to?
Definition
High Co2 in muscle tissues for example
Term
What is diff in the types vertebrate circulatory system?
Definition
The types of hearts
Term
What has a two chamber heart?
Definition
fish
Term
What has three chamber hearts?
Definition
amphibians
Term
What has four chamber hearts?
Definition
mammals, crocodiles
Term
What do amphibians breath through?
Definition
their skin
Term
What is the highest performance heart?
Definition
4 chamber
Term
What cycle does blood flow through in the 4 chamber heart?
Definition
oxygenated blood goes through the right side to the Pulmonary circuit through capillaries then exits the left side as deoxygenated blood cycling in the systemic capillaires
Term
What is an acception in the amphibian world, heart wise?
Definition
The crocodile, it has a 4 chamber heart
Term
What do the coranary arteries do?
Definition
feed oxygen to the aorta
Term
What other substances does the circulatory system transport besides oxygen?
Definition
Hormone, glucose, nitrogenous wastes
Term
In the open circulatory system, where does the heart pump fluids to and through?
Definition
It pumps fluids through the vessels out to the body into spaces called sinuses
Term
What do the fluid in sinuses bathe?
Definition
cells and organs
Term
Where does the Hemolymph collected in sinuses go?
Definition
It is drawn back to the heart
Term
What is the fluid called in a closed system?
Definition
blood
Term
What do the smaller branching vessels supply?
Definition
tissues
Term
What are three main types of blood vessels?
Definition
arteries, capillaries, veins
Term
Why do insects use the tracheal system to supple oxygen?
Definition
to supply oxygen and get rid of carbon dioxide
Term
Does a closed circulatory system correlate with oxygenated vs. deoxygenated blood?
Definition
no
Term
What happens to hemoglobin oxygen saturation in the curve when oxygen concentration increases?
Definition
higher oxygen= higher percent saturation
zero oxygen =zero percent saturation
Term
Describe the Dissociation curve for human adult and fetal hemoglobin
Definition
Fetal is to the left: leftward shifted curve=higher oxygen affinity, stronger oxygen binding
adult is to the right=lower oxygen affinity, weaker oxygen binding
Term
What is capable of higher oxygen saturations? fetal or adult hemoglobin?
Definition
getal
Term
Who pulls oxygen away from the other? fetal or mother?
Definition
fetal
Term
What is the Bohr effect
Definition
At high pH hemoglobin has high affinity for oxygen; at lower pH hemoglobin has a lower affinity for oxygen(will tend to release oxygen)
Term
Where does oxygen bind strongly at?
Definition
The lungs
Term
Where does oxygen bind weakly at?
Definition
The tissues
Term
Why is the Dinosaur named willow important?
Definition
it has a preserved heart, that show it is a four chambered heart
Term
What kind of hearts were dinosaurs likely to have and what does this mean about their physiology?
Definition
They were likely to have 4 chambered hearts, and were more likely to be active runners
Term
What did the T. rex from Montana give us?
Definition
blood vessels that were preserved in fossil femur
Term
Where does hemoglobin bind less tightly to oxygen?
Definition
When CO2 is high, this is found in respiring tissues like muscles
Term
At high pH hemoglobin as a ____ affinity for oxygen
Definition
High
Term
At a low pH hemoglobin has a ___affinity for oxygen
Definition
low
Term
What does the hemoglobin tend to do at lower pH?
Definition
release oxygen
Term
High pH corresponds to...
Definition
Low CO2..in lungs/gills
Term
low pH corresponds to...
Definition
High CO2...in muscle tissue for example
Term
Due to Bohr effect hemoglobin binds strongly to ___
Definition
lungs/gils (to take up oxygen)
Term
Due to the Bohr effect hemoglobin binds weakly in
Definition
tissues (to release oxygen)
Term
Describe the 2 chamber heart of a fish starting from the Ventricle going up.
Definition
Ventricle>artery>gill capillaries>systemic capillaries>veins>Atrium
Term
What does amphibian respiration involve?
Definition
both lung and surface respiration
Term
Describe the 3 chamber heart starting from the right ventricle, going clockwise
Definition
ventricle>pulmocutaneous circuit>left atrium>systemic capillaries>right atrium>ventricle
Term
Describe the 4 chamber heart starting from the right ventricle
Definition
right ventricle>pulmonary circuit (lung capillaries)>left atrium>left ventricle>systemic capillaries>right atrium>right ventricle
Term
Why doesn't the baby's blood become oxygenated when there is the heart defect that needs the arterial switch operation?
Definition
The coronary artery needs to be repaired because the baby is getting either too little or too much oxygen
Term
Which side of the heart is deoxygenated?
Definition
Right
Term
Which side of the heart is oxygenated?
Definition
Left
Term
What does the atrium do?
Definition
where blood enters the heart
Term
What does the ventricles do?
Definition
where blood pumps out of the heart
Term
How many atria and ventricles does a two chamber heart have?
Definition
1 atria
1 ventricle
Term
how many atria and ventricles does a three chamber heart have?
Definition
2 atria and 1 ventricle
Term
how many atria and ventricles does a four chamber heart have?
Definition
2 atria and 2 ventricle
Term
What makes the 4 chamber heart different from the 3 chamber?
Definition
it keeps oxygenated blood completely separate form de-oxygenated blood
Term
What does the 4 chamber leave the heart to have far more oxygen than the 3 chamber?
Definition
It prevents mixing
