GUARANTEED A+
Platelets Small parts of the blood that help cause clotting to
stop bleeding, trap pathogens, and prevent
additional pathogens from entering the body.
Formed in the bone marrow
Leukocyte (wbc) largest blood cell; protects against pathogens,
foreign substances, and cell debris
Erythrocyte (rbc) Red blood cell, carries oxygen to all other cells in
the body. No nucleus
Plasma Plasma is the clear, straw-colored liquid portion of
blood. Makes up about 50% of blood. Plasma
contains proteins that help blood clot, transport
substances through the blood.
Capillaries Smallest blood vessels. Distribute oxygenated
blood from arteries to the tissues of the body and
to feed deoxygenated blood from the tissues back
, into veins.
Veins (except Carry deoxygenated blood back to heart
pulmonary)
Pulmonary Vein Carries oxygenated blood from lungs to heart
Arteries (except Carry oxygenated blood away from heart
Pulmonary)
Pulmonary Artery Carries deoxygenated blood from heart to lungs
Blood Pressure Force of blood pushing on walls of arteries
what does blood Circulates blood
pressure do?
Diastole atrial or ventricular relaxation
Systole Contraction of heart muscles to push blood
Semi lunar valves in the pulmonary artery and aorta
are located where
what is a pulmonary blood vessels that carry blood to and from the
circuit lungs.
Systemic Circuit Circuit of blood that carries blood between the
heart and the rest of the body.
Circulatory System Micro/Macro Nutrients: Oxygen, Water
transports
Vital lung capacity The amount of oxygen you can breathe out when
exhaling your biggest, deepest breath.
Residual Capacity the total amount of air remaining in your lungs after
, forcibly exhaling.
Expiratory Reserve Amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled after a
Volume normal tidal volume exhalation
Tidal Volume Volume of gas inspired and expired during an
unforced breath
Diaphragm relaxes Expiration (breathe out)
(moves up) during
Diaphragm contracts Inspiration (breathe in)
(moves down) during
Diffusion Movement of material from higher conc. to lower
conc.
True or false? larger True
Surface Area =
increase in diffusion
rate
External Respiration Breathing
Respiratory System System of gas exchange
Internal Respiration Production of energy through cellular respiration
Trachea a large membranous tube reinforced by rings of
cartilage, extending from the larynx to the bronchial
tubes and conveying air to and from the lungs; the
windpipe.
Larynx the hollow muscular organ forming an air passage
