What is the difference between coronary arteries and arteries?
Arteriosclerosis is any hardening (stiffening) of artery walls. One of the ways this can happen is through atherosclerosis, which is when an atheroma (a build-up of dead RBCs, fibres and platelets) begins to accumulate within an artery wall and may stick out into the lumen or even break through the endothelium. This makes the artery less flexible.So someone with arteriosclerosis does not necessarily have atherosclerosis, but someone with atherosclerosis must have arteriosclerosis, as their arteries have hardened.
In what ways was Sparta's government different?
1.It was an oligarchy not a democracy
What function in the earthworm has a similar function as the human heart?
The actual "pumping system" of a worm can be mistaken as a heart, but it has no chambers. They are actually aeortic arches that pump the blood down the ventral side of the worm and it returns on the dorsal vessel.
What are Different methods of checking the pulse?
You can check the pulse in the carotid (neck) or brachial (upper arm) arteries for CPR pulse checks. Other possible locations for checking a pulse are Radial (wrist), Popliteal artery (knee) posterior tibial or dorsalis pedis (foot).
What are different ways for drawing maps?
The different ways of drawing maps are A. Scales B. Projections C. Legends D. Mercators
What are ways in which veins are structurally adapted to their role within the circulation?
Veins are structurally adapted to their role within the circulation in various ways. For instance the capillaries are smaller in size and this helps in the connection with other veins. Arteries are on the other hand larger to allow more blood to pass through them.
What are the 3 ways of blood circulating in your body?
Veins, arteries, capilarries?
Veins are made for what kind of pressure?
Blood leaves the heart in arteries at very high pressure. Once the blood has gone through the capillaries and entered the veins, the pressure is lower, because the blood has travelled further. Veins are adapted for this decrease in pressure in two main ways. Firstly, they have a larger lumen relative to that of arteries, to allow more blood through in a given time. Secondly, veins have valves to prevent the backflow of blood; this is especially necessary in the legs, where venal blood is travelling against gravity.
How was medical practices different during the time of the plague?
Doctors tried different new ways. Such as cutting the veins and washing with vinegar.
What is the three ways how the blood flow?
blood flows away from the heart, through the arteries,to the other parts of the body.it travels towards the heart from the other parts of the body by veins and finally blood is supplied to the organs by the capillaries.
What are the parts that make up cardiovascular system and the respiratory system?
The cardio-respiratory system consists of the cardio vascular system (heart and blood vessels) together with respiratory system (lungs and air ways).anything other than those are NOT component of the The cardio-respiratory system.
Do fish have veins?
no they dont have veins Yes, fish have veins. Fish have blood an veins are the necessary ways for all living beings to have their blood circulated throughout their body.
How do the lower pelvic arteries in human differ from those in cat?
Lower pelvic arteries differ from human from those of a cat in many different ways from the way the cat and human can go through labor and how the human and the cat can carry the babies of kittens are very different.
Identify two ways muscles attach to bone?
veins and meat
What are three different ways you can classify?
Leaves can be classified from their edges (e.g. lobed, jagged), their veins (e.g. network veins, parallel veins), their shapes (e.g. oval, circle), their size (e.g. large, small), their thickness (e.g. flat, thick), and their colour (e.g. yellow, red).we can classify leafs acording to there edges,size,colour,
What blood vessel takes blood from the cells back to the heart?
Blood vessels are responsible for the transportation of blood, made up arteries and veins, they creates pathways for the oxygenated blood to travel to their destination and pathways for the used deoxygenated blood to travel back to the heart or lungs. Capillaries are designed to permit the transfer of gasses within the blood, such as the delivery of oxygen and the return of carbon dioxide. The molecules from the tissues use the oxygenated blood plasma for energy and return the molecules of wastes. Blood vessels form these pathways to reach every living cell within the human body for this gaseous exchange. The network formed by the blood vessels is tubular, extensive, and in many ways fragile to outside influences.As the blood leaves the heart, they are filled with molecules of necessary oxygen, and traverse a passageway of progressively smaller tubular networks known as (in order) arteries, arterioles, and capillaries. The microscopic capillaries are responsible for the conjoining of arterial flow and venous flow. Capillaries create the environment for the actual gaseous exchange.As blood returns to the heart for more oxygen it passes through a tubular network of progressively larger diameter known as (in order) venules and veins. Anastomosis is the convergence arteries. While there are several places throughout the body where this process of anastomosis occurs, this includes the necks of the humerus and femur. Anastomosis occurs in areas that require a constant supply of oxygenated blood.
