Explain why the walls of arteries are thick and have alot of elastic tissue? |
|
Definition
They have thicker walls than veins to withstand the pressure produced by the heart’s pumping. |
|
|
Term
Veins have the same three layers of tissue as arteries, but they have much less muscle why? |
|
Definition
Veins have less pressure than arteries, they also use the skeletal muscles and have one way valves so they can return the blood to the heart. |

|
Definition
Some blood plasma (liquid) diffuses out of the capillary due to blood pressure. The “leaked-out” plasma is now called TISSUE FLUID. Excess tissue fluid is collected by LYMPTH CAPILLARIES and is returned by a large lymph vessel back into the blood near the heart. |

Term
Functions of the blood:
white blood cells
plasma
red blood cells
platelets |
|
Definition
(Leucocytes) fight disease. They can escape from inside the capillaries and can be found outside among the body tissues. They can be long-lived and have a nucleus.
liquid part of blood, transports CO2 which dissolves to form CO3- - (carbonate ion).
Transports absorbed nutrients (amino acids, glucose, fatty acids, vitamins, minerals.)
Contains blood-clotting proteins
(Erythrocytes) transports oxygen using the respiratory pigment (Haemoglobin) A small amount of CO2 is carried by the red blood cells. They have no nucleus and subsequently are short-lived (about 30 days).
cell fragments that bind up a blood clot. |
