Cardiovascular System Anatomy & Physiology The heart is the pump responsible for maintaining adequate circulation of oxygenated blood around the vascular network of the body. It is a four-chamber pump‚ with the right side receiving deoxygenated blood from the body at low presure and pumping it to the lungs (the pulmonary circulation) and the left side receiving oxygenated blood from the lungs and pumping it at high pressure around the body (the systemic circulation). The myocardium (cardiac

Respiratory System Respiration: The primary function of the respiratory system is to obtain oxygen gas for cell metabolism and remove carbon dioxide waste. Describe each of the following general processes of respiration. Ventilation- air is moved into and out of the lungs so the gases there are continuously changed and refreshed external respiration- oxygen diffuses from the lungs to the blood‚ and carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood to the lungs gas transport- oxygen is transported

Renal calculi literally translates to kidney stones. These kidney stones form inside your kidneys but can affect your entire urinary tract as it travels (which includes the bladder‚ urethra‚ and ureters.) Stones form when urine is too rich with minerals and salts causing them to stick together creating a small‚ hard‚ pebble-like sediment. Kidney stones are a collection of proteins and mineral salts that aggregate into a solid crystalline structure. The stones structure is made of two phases‚ crystalline

The Endocrine System Controls many body functions ~exerts control by releasing special chemical substances into the blood called hormones ~Hormones affect other endocrine glands or body systems Derives its name from the fact that various glands release hormones directly into the blood‚ which in turn transports the hormones to target tissues via ducts. Exocrine glands-transport their hormones to target tissues via ducts. Endocrine glands- secrete hormones into the bloodstream The Endocrine
