Circulatory and Respiratory Systems
3
Class Quiz Tom. Popcorn – pathway of blood through systemic and pulmonary systems Start at RIGHT ATRIUM and end at RIGHT ATRIUM
4
Word list – you put it in the correct order
Right atrium Left atrium Right ventricle Left ventricle Pulmonary arteries Pulmonary veins Pulmonary trunk Aorta Capillaries of lungs Capillaries of body Superior and inferior vena cava
5
Heart: external
6
Heart: internal AV valve AV valve
7
Cardiac Cycle Diastole = relax Systole = contract See chart on 620
9
Structure and Function
Atria are composed of thinner cardiac muscles and their contractions are quick and not nearly as forceful as ventricular contractions (0.1 sec) Ventricles are composed of thicker cardiac muscle and much more forceful then atrial contractions, the contractions also last longer (0.3 sec)
10
Pulse – used to determine heart rate (beats per min
Pulse – used to determine heart rate (beats per min.), pulse is actually the rhythmic stretching of arteries caused by the pressure of blood flow due to the powerful contractions of the ventricles
11
Cardiac Output Cardiac output = volume of blood per minute into the systemic loop - depends upon… heart rate (specifically left ventricle rate of contraction) and stroke volume – volume of blood pumped out of left ventricle with each contraction
12
Why is cardiac output important?
HINT: Av. Person at rest = 5.25 L/min which is about equivalent to total volume of blood in body Av. person who has decided to exercise = L/min
13
Why would the cardiac output increase with exercise?
14
Why is exercise good for the heart?
15
Increase efficiency of heart – increase in stroke volume
16
Rhythmic Beating of the Heart
Individual cells of cardiac tissue beat on their own
17
Coordinating the “beat”
SA (sinoatrial) node – aka pace maker Electrocardiogram (EKG or ECG) – reads the electrical currents produced during the heart beat
18
USE Figure 34.7 What do the following ECG recordings correspond to in regards to the action of the heart: P wave – QRS – T –
19
Blood Pressure Top # = systolic pressure Bottom # = diastolic pressure
120/80 Top # = systolic pressure Bottom # = diastolic pressure
20
Vessel types
21
Blood Vessel System Law of continuity – think water hose and water pressure Water flow velocity depends upon diameter the “pipe” in this case the vessel So… which should have a faster blood flow arteriole or capillaries?
22
Yes, a single capillary is smaller in diameter than an arteriole BUT…
You must take into account the total cross sectional diameter of an entire capillary bed – which consists of lots of individual capillaries – making the total diameter much greater than the arteriole
23
So… Blood travels very slowly in a capillary to allow for exchange of substances, also capillary walls are thin enough to allow for this
25
Lymphatic system
26
What is the role of each?
27
Respiratory system
28
Lungs
29
Lungs: internal
30
Inhaling and exhaling- again with the physics and chemistry
31
Boyle’s law and breathing
Volume and pressure are inversely proportional – mark this with arrows in your notes! See the balloon model ADAM
32
Partial pressures and the unloading and loading of respiratory gases
Gases (like all molecules) will move from an area of high partial pressure to lower partial pressure
34
Focus on Oxygen Hemoglobin – found in RBCs
35
Oxygen Hemoglobin (contains iron) and binds up to 4 molecules of oxygen Affinity changes as oxygen molecules bind or release, One oxygen attaching causes hemoglobin to have a greater affinity for even more oxygen – how? An oxygen released causes hemoglobin to release even more
36
pH levels affect hemoglobin affinity for oxygen also
when CO2 levels are high, this causes blood pH to lower and a greater release of oxygen CO2 + H2O --- HCO3- + H+
37
Oxygen Disassociation Curves
