There are two of the veins on each side of the neck and are known as the external and internal jugulars. The external vein is close to the surface and carries blood from the outside areas of the head and neck to the heart. The internal veins carry blood from the base of the skull to the heart.
They drain blood from the anterior right ventricle directly to the right atrium.
It travels down through the chest and its small branches supply blood to the ribs and other chest structures. The abdominal aorta starts at the diaphragm and splits to become the paired iliac arteries in the lower section of the abdomen
It is a collection of veins joined together to form a large vessel that collects blood from the heart muscle and delivers de-oxygenated blood to the right atrium.
It is the largest artery in the human body and begins at the top left ventricle which is the heart's muscular pumping chamber. The heart pumps blood from the left ventricle into the aorta traveling through the aortic valve.
It is the major blood vessel of the upper arm. It continues from the axillary artery past the lower margin of the teres major muscle.
The superior vena cava is a large vein of the heart bringing in de-oxygenated blood from the head, arms and upper body to the heart. Once this blood enters the heart, it drains into the right atrium of the heart.
It is a major vessel of the human heart that originates from the right ventricle and branches into the right and left pulmonary arteries, which firect to the lungs.
Responsible for transporting oxygen-depleted blood away from the heart and back towards the lungs. The primary artery splits into the left and right pulmonary artery which both direct blood to the corresponding lung
It is one of the major arteries in the human body and extends from the iliac artery near the abdomen traveling down to the legs. Its function is to supply blood to the lower section of the body.
They supply blood to the heart muscle and require oxygen-rich blood to function.
Oxygen-rich blood from the lungs enters the left atrium through the pulmonary vein. Then the blood is pumped into the left ventricle through the mitral valve. Then the blood is ready to be pumped into the body to deliver blood to all bodily tissues.
They are large blood vessels that receive oxygenated blood from the lungs and drain into the left atrium of the heart. There are four of them, two for each lung.
It allows blood to flow one direction only, traveling from the left atrium into the left ventricle.
The right atrium is one of the four chambers of the heart where de-oxygenated blood enters from the body through the vena cava and pumps it into the right ventricle. It then sends it to the lungs to be oxygenated.
The papillary muscles are located in the ventricles of the heart and attach to the cusps of the atrioventricular valves through the chordae tendinae. They contract to prevent inversion of these valves on systole.
They deliver oxygenated blood to the leg and pelvic areas and eventually transport blood to the inferior vena cava.
The tricuspid valve is between the right atrium and right ventricle and it's function is to prevent back flow of blow into the right atrium.
It is a large vein that carries de-oxygenated blood from the lower body to the heart and functions with the superior vena cava
The left ventricle receives oxygenated blood from the left atrium through the mitral valve and pumps blood through the aorta through the aortic valve leading into the systemic circulation.
The right ventricle is the chamber within the heart that is responsible for pumping oxygen-depleted blood to the lungs. It is located in the lower right portion of the heart below the right atrium and opposite the left ventricle.
A valve between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery and it prevents blood from flowing from the artery back into the heart.
The left ventricle pumps blood through the aortic semilunar valve into the aorta. It is the most immense blood vessel in your body and oxygenated blood from the heart to the body. It also prevents blood from flowing back into the left ventricle and keeps it moving forward.
They are major blood vessels in the neck that provide blood to the brain, neck, and face. There are two of them that branch to the right and left.
Occurrence where blood is oxygenated and CO2 is released. This occurs in the right ventricle out to the lungs and back to the left atrium.
It is part of the cardiovascular system which carries oxygenated blood away from the heart to the body then returns de-oxygenated blood back to the heart.
This loop provides body tissues with O2 and nutrients and pick up various wastes. It occurs in the left ventricle out to the body and back to the right atrium.
They join the basilic vein to form the axillary vein and have small tributaries that empty the muscles of the upper arm.
It provides the heart with O2 and nutrients and also picks up wastes. It occurs at the base of the aorta out to the heart muscle and back to the right atrium
They surround millions of tiny air sacs, called alveoli, in your lungs. Their function is when your blood takes up oxygen from the air one inhales.
Alveoli is responsible for the gas exchange of oxygen and CO2. Oxygen from the inhaled air diffuses through the walls of the alveoli and adjacent capillaries into red blood cells. The oxygen is then carried by the blood to the bodies tissues.
