The first pump pumps "oxygen poor" blood to the lungs from the right ventricle of the heart via the pulmonary artery where it returns as "oxygen rich blood" via the pulmonary vein to the left atrium. It flows through to the left ventricle, where the second pump of the heart pumps the oxygen-rich blood to all the other parts of the body, via the aorta. There are four valves that ensure blood flows in the correct direction, these are the pulmonary valve, the tricuspid valve, the mitral valve and the aortic valve. | | The number of times the heart beats per minute, otherwise known as the pulse rate, is affected by the age and fitness of a person and their current level of activity. The heart's muscle wall is called the myocardium.
An optimal range would be a Systolic Blood Pressure (mmHg): 120 or lower.and Diastolic Blood Pressure (mmHg): 80 or lower. [ (Unknown, 140 or Bust: New Goals for Your Blood Pressure, 2001) ] Systolic blood pressure reading is the peak pressure of blood in the arteries when the ventricles of the heart are going through a contraction. Diastolic measurement of pressure is the amount

2. . The P wave of a normal electrocardiogram indicates: F. A. Atrial depolarization G. B. Ventricular depolarization H. C. Atrial repolarization I. D. Ventricular repolarization J. E. Tachycardia 3. . Blood in the pulmonary veins enters: K. A. Right atrium L. B. Left atrium M. C. Right ventricle N. D. Left ventricle O. E. Lung 4. .
When the right atrium contracts, it pushes the blood cells through a valve which leads to another chamber in the heart. This valve is called the tricuspid valve. It is named this because it has three leaflets. It is a one way valve, which normally only allowing blood to travel from the right atrium to the right ventricle. There are certain conditions where the flow can reverse.
A brief overview of normal anatomy............. The Lymphatic system consists of two components, and they are the Meandering network of lymphatic vessels and then the various lymphoid tissues and organs that are scattered throughout our body! There are many networks of vessels throughout our bodies known as lymphatic vessels which form a one-way system, which runs towards the heart, that’s function is to collect and return fluid leaked from the blood vessels back into the circulatory system. Without the Lymphatic system, there would be an approximate of 3 litres a day of fluid remaining in our bodies that are not picked up by the venous vessels, which without being drained away can lead to Oedema. [= a build-up of fluid which causes the affected tissue to become swollen] There are 3 vessels that carry the remaining fluid, and they vary in size from smallest to largest.
The urine leaving the collecting tubule has the same concentration as the interstitial fluid at that point. The interstitial concentrations are largely a function of blood flow in the three regions. In the cortex, the lower concentrations are the result of the large blood flow in the peritubular capillaries. The capillary blood carries away excess solute and water in the region. In the medulla, the only blood flow is in the vasa recta, approximately 10% of the cortical blood flow.
How is Cardiovascular Fitness Measured? Michael Holland 8/27/2014 Bio 101 Dr Paul Casner Question 1 What does a blood pressure measurement of 110/70 mean? Not Scored: The first number, 110, refers to the systolic pressure in the vessel. The pressure is highest at this time due to the ventricles in the heart contracting and pushing blood through the vessel. The second number, 70, refers to the diastolic pressure.
