Heart Chambers Top Chambers are the left and right atrium Bottom Chambers are the left and right ventricles ~ atrium walls are thin because only needed to pump blood to bottom chambers Structure & Function of the Heart Right Side ~ receives deoxygenated blood from body ~ this side pumps this ...
Figure 1. The pulmonary circuit moves blood from the right side of the heart to the lungs and back to the heart. The systemic circuit moves blood from the left side of the heart to the head and body and returns it to the right side of the heart to repeat the cycle. The arrows indic...
The heterogeneity of functional cardiomyocytes arises during heart development, which is essential to the complex and highly coordinated cardiac physiological function. Yet the biological and physiological identities and the origin of the specialized cardiomyocyte populations have not been fully comprehended. ...
The spectrum of arterial alterations in ESRD is broader, including large artery remodeling and changes in viscoelastic properties of arterial walls. The consequences of these alterations are different from those attibuted to plaques. While atheromatous lesions alter principally the conduit function of ...
STRUCTURE & FUNCTION OF…. Capillaries Walls one cell thick to allow Diffusion of; oxygen(O2) TO the muscle, and carbon dioxide (CO2) FROM the muscle STRUCURE & FUNCTION OF…. Veins Take Blood TOWARDS the heart Thin walls Non-Return valves Usually carry deoxygenated blood (except the pulmona...
Differences in cardiac and aortic structure and function are associated with cardiovascular diseases and a wide range of other types of disease. Here we analyzed cardiovascular magnetic resonance images from a population-based study, the UK Biobank, using an automated machine-learning-based analysis pip...
The spleen is the largest organ of the lymphatic system, as it provides the conditions for white blood cells maturation. By filtering blood, the spleen also recycles damaged erythrocytes. Spleen Splen 1/2 Synonyms: Lien To find out more about the spleen anatomy, location and function check ...
An artery is an elasticblood vesselthat transportsbloodaway from theheart. This is the opposite function ofveins, which transport blood to the heart. Arteries are components of thecardiovascular system. This system circulates nutrients to and removes waste material from thecells of the body. ...
