atherosclerosis

Back 4

Front 5

Back 5

valves in veins fail

Front 6

blood from left subclavian artery flows into what vessels as it moves toward left arm?

Back 6

left axillary artery

Front 7

blood in radial artery comes from what blood vessel?

Back 7

brachial artery

Front 8

an aneurysm is a weakened, expanded portion of artery. ruptured aneurysms can lead to rapid blood loss. describe significance of aortic aneurysm vs digital artery aneurysm

Back 8

-loss of blood in digital artery aneurysm would be minimal due to small size of artery of finger and fact that finger is not vital organ
-rupture of aorta would be fatal as vessel is very large and rapid blood loss would follow

Front 9

pulmonary arteries carry deoxygenated blood from heart to lungs. umbilical arteries carry mix of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. why are these blood vessels called arteries?

Back 9

an artery is defined as vessel that carries blood from heart and not by what kind of blood is contained w/in vessel.

Back 14

Front 16

from what blood vessel does descending aorta get blood?

Back 16

Back 17

artery

Front 18

left common carotid artery receives blood from what vessel?

Back 18

aortic arch

Front 19

name 3 blood vessels that exit from aortic arch

Front 20

name all blood vessels that would carry blood cell from left ventricle to right thumb

Back 20

Left ventricle to ascending aorta, to aortic arch, to subclavian artery, to axillary artery, to brachial artery, into right radial or ulnar arteries, to palmar arch arteries finally into digital artery of thumb.
