Question
Chapter 36.4, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The direction for the opening of valves in long necks of giraffe.
Introduction:
The circulatory system consists of blood, blood vessels, and heart. The network supplies oxygen and other nutrients to tissues in the body transport hormones and eliminates unnecessary waste products.

What are some observations comparing the schematics of the fish and mammal circulatory systems? (Note: these are simplified schematics that don't show every single route for blood, so focus on the heart and the immediate inflow/outflow around the heart.)
Which of the following is the correct sequence of blood flow through pulmonary circulation?
Group of answer choices
Right atrium → right ventricle → pulmonary arteries → pulmonary capillaries (in lungs) → pulmonary veins → left atrium
Left atrium → left ventricle → pulmonary arteries → pulmonary capillaries (in lungs) → pulmonary veins → right atrium
Right atrium → right ventricle → pulmonary capillaries (in lungs) → pulmonary arteries → pulmonary veins → left atrium
Left atrium → left ventricle → pulmonary capillaries (in lungs) → pulmonary arteries → pulmonary veins → right atrium
Left atrium → left ventricle → pulmonary veins → pulmonary arteries → pulmonary capillaries (in lungs) → right atrium
In the cardiovascular dynamics experiment (part 2), if the right beaker simulates the flow of blood to the systemic circuit of the body, what do the right valve and flow tube represent?
Select one:
aortic valve and pulmonary veins
bicuspid valve and pulmonary veins
aortic valve and aorta
bicuspid valve and aorta

- Blood is pushed out of the heart through a large vessel, called the aorta. The aorta then divides into smaller and smaller blood vessels, eventually reaching vessels called capillaries. Capillaries are so small that oxygen and nutrients can diffuse across the vessel walls and into the tissues of the body, with CO2 and waste diffusing back into the blood. Let's say that the cross-sectional area of the aorta is 1 cm2 = 100 mm2. The blood pumps through the aorta at 100 mm/s but only through the capillaries at 1 mm/s. If each capillary has a cross-sectional area of 20 mm2, how many capillaries must there be in the body? Note: these numbers are not physiologically correct, but were chosen to make the math easier. The blood velocity through the aorta is closer to 300 mm/s. The capillaries have a total cross-sectional area of ~600,000 mm2 (6000 cm2), with a blood flow rate closer to 0.2 mm/s.arrow_forwardDescribe the functions of the following structures in a frog's cardiovascular system. 1.
