Question
Chapter 44, Problem 15TYK
Summary Introduction
To review:
The closure of the septum between the two ventricles to create a double respiratory system as an evolutionary advantage.
Introduction:
Animal circulatory system is the network of blood vessels to supply oxygen (O2) and other nutrients to the tissues via heart and removing waste materials such as carbon dioxide (CO2). It can either be the open circulatory system or closed circulatory system. The invasion of terrestrial habitats by the different vertebrate groups led to an evolutionary trend.

Students have asked these similar questions
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.)
The English physiologist William Harvey made all of the following circulatory discoveries except:
the function of valves in the veins is to direct blood flow back to the heart
both pulmonary and systemic blood pressure comes from pumping of the heart
blood in the veins is under less pressure than is blood in the arteries
arterial pressure is lowest during systole and greatest during diastole
the function of the vertebrate heart is to pump blood continuously
Briefly describe the differences among animal circulatory systems. What is an open system versus a closed? What are the anatomical differences among vertebrate hearts?

- Many objects designed by engineers have “circulatory systems” of one type or another. Describe at least three or four examples. Why do engineers sometimes include systems of flowing fluids in objects they design? We often hear it said that animal systems can teach us how to design engineered systems. If you were a biologist teaching a group of engineers about the lessons of animal circulatory systems, what principles would you emphasize?arrow_forwardFigure 16.10 Which of the following statements about the circulatory system is false?a.

Assume that there are two blood-flow circuits, which are identical except that one of the circuits has a single vessel, whereas the other has two identical vessels in parallel. a.If the resistance of a single vessel is R, what is the overall resistance of the two vessels in parallel? b.If each of the circuits carries the same flow rate, which has the larger pressure drop?

The circulating fluid flows in one direction (unidirectionally) through a circulatory loop. The circulating fluid is called hemolymph. Ostia are pores in the heart, important for circulatory function. The circulating fluid is called blood. The circulating fluid remains in vessels as it moves throughout the organism. Is the more efficient type of circulatory system.arrow_forwardDescribe all the events (steps) that occur during a cardiac cycle for mammals (organisms with a double circulation).

From there, the signal passes along the internodal pathway to the 2 [ Select] causing the atria to contract. After a slight pause, the signal travels to the 3 [ Select ] , which divides into left and right bundle branches and carries the signal down through the 4 [ Select ] to the apex of the heart. At that point, specialized 5 [ Select ] carry the signal to individual cardiac muscle cells and the 6 [ Select ] contract.arrow_forward
