2. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Blood Vessels: The Vascular System  Taking blood to the tissues and back  Arteries  Arterioles  Capillaries  Venules  Veins Figure 11.8a

3. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings The Vascular System Figure 11.8b

4. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Blood Vessels: Anatomy  Three layers (tunics)  Tunic intima  Endothelium  Tunic media  Smooth muscle  Controlled by sympathetic nervous system  Tunic externa  Mostly fibrous connective tissue

5. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Differences Between Blood Vessel Types  Walls of arteries are the thickest  Lumens of veins are larger  Walls of capillaries are only one cell layer thick to allow for exchanges between blood and tissue

6. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Movement of Blood Through Vessels  Most arterial blood is pumped by the heart  Veins use the milking action of muscles to help move blood Figure 11.9

7. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Capillary Beds  Capillary beds consist of two types of vessels  Vascular shunt – directly connects an arteriole to a venule Figure 11.10

8. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Capillary Beds  True capillaries – exchange vessels  Oxygen and nutrients cross to cells  Carbon dioxide and metabolic waste products cross into blood Figure 11.10

14. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Developmental Aspects of the Heart  Embryonic heart chambers  Sinus venous  Atrium  Ventricle  Bulbus cordis

15. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Developmental Aspects of the Heart Figure 18.24

16. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Developmental Aspects of the Heart  Fetal heart structures that bypass pulmonary circulation  Foramen ovale connects the two atria  Ductus arteriosus connects pulmonary trunk and the aorta

18. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Examples of Congenital Heart Defects Figure 18.25

19. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Pulse  Pulse – pressure wave of blood  Monitored at “pressure points” where pulse is easily palpated Figure 11.16

20. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Blood Pressure  Measurements by health professionals are made on the pressure in large arteries  Systolic – pressure at the peak of ventricular contraction  Diastolic – pressure when ventricles relax  Blood pressures are reported in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), with the systolic pressure written first – 120/80 mm Hg

23. Figure 11.17 Comparison of Blood Pressures in Different Vessels

24. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Blood Pressure: Effects of Factors  Neural factors  Autonomic nervous system adjustments (sympathetic division)  Renal factors  Regulation by altering blood volume  Renin – hormonal control

25. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Blood Pressure: Effects of Factors  Temperature  Heat has a vasodilation effect  Cold has a vasoconstricting effect  Chemicals  Various substances can cause increases or decreases  Diet

26. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Factors Determining Blood Pressure Figure 11.19

27. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Variations in Blood Pressure  Human normal range is variable  Normal  140–110 mm Hg systolic  80–75 mm Hg diastolic  Hypotension  Low systolic (below 110 mm HG)  Often associated with illness  Hypertension  High systolic (above 140 mm HG)  Can be dangerous if it is chronic

28. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Capillary Exchange  Substances exchanged due to concentration gradients  Oxygen and nutrients leave the blood  Carbon dioxide and other wastes leave the cells

29. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Capillary Exchange: Mechanisms  Direct diffusion across plasma membranes  Endocytosis or exocytosis  Some capillaries have gaps (intercellular clefts)  Plasma membrane not joined by tight junctions  Fenestrations of some capillaries  Fenestrations = pores

30. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)  Congestive heart failure (CHF) is caused by:  Coronary atherosclerosis  Persistent high blood pressure  Multiple myocardial infarcts  Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM)
