Textbook Question
Chapter 11, Problem 34SAE
In a fetus, the liver and lungs are almost entirely bypassed by blood. Why is this? Name is the vessel that bypasses the liver. Name two lung bypasses. Three vessels travel in the umbilical cord; which of these carries oxygen- and nutrient-rich blood?

Describe the nutrient and gas content of the blood flowing in the umbilical vein. Is this the kind of blood you would expect to find in a vein? Explain. Is there another place in the body where a similar situation occurs? If so, where?
Pulmonary arterioles respond to different factors than systemic arterioles because in the lungs, the blood supply is receiving
oxygen and delivering carbon dioxide, while in the systemic circulation, it is delivering oxygen, and receiving carbon dioxide. In the
pulmonary circuit, arterioles will dilate in well-ventilated areas of the lungs to increase the rate of exchange between capillaries
and well-ventilated alveoli. However, in poorly ventilated areas of the lungs, arterioles will constrict in order to re-route blood to
well-ventilated areas. Now consider our case of pulmonary oedema, and how that will impact circulation in the pulmonary
circuit. (Select two answers).
Pulmonary arterioles will dilate
Pulmonary arterioles will constrict
O Pulmonary vascular resistance will increase
O Pulmonary vascular resistance will decrease
Do the pulmonary arteries carry oxygenated blood or deoxygenated blood? What features of the pulmonary arteries make them arteries rather than veins?
