All the blood that passes through the aorta, except the blood that flowsinto the coronary vessels, returns to the heart through the venae cavae.(Hint: The diameter of the aorta is 26 mm, and the diameter of avena cava is 32 mm.) Explain why the resistance to blood flow in theaorta is greater than the resistance to blood flow in the venae cavae.Because the resistances are different, explain why blood flow can bethe same.
In coronary bypass surgery, the internal thoracic artery can be used as the bypass vessel by suturing its distal end onto the obstructed coronary artery in the heart wall. Explain why using this vessel is superior to using the great saphenous vein of the leg.
An erythrocyte travels through the heart and lungs. Starting in the inferior vena cava, list in order, all chambers, valves and vessels through which the erythrocyte will pass on this incredible journey to the ascending aorta.

- The renal artery branches off of the abdominal aorta. Together the kidneys receive about 25% of cardiac output (1.2-1.3 liters/minute) via the renal arteries. The vessel marked is seen in the sinus of the kidney. It is identified as an example of which of the following? Choose from the following: (A) interlobar artery (B) interlobular artery (C) segmental artery (D) arcuate arteryarrow_forwardDr. J was performing a cardiac bypass on her 53-year-old male patient whose anterior interventricular artery was narrowed near its origin. For this procedure, she chose to use the left internal thoracic artery, leaving its origin intact and cutting its distal connection to attach it to the anterior interventricular artery just beyond the narrowed segment. This successfully restored blood flow to the anterior portion of the heart. What path does the blood take through this diverted route? Aortic arch to axillary artery to internal thoracic artery.

Holmes, a 72-year-old Caucasian male, suffered a heart attack which resulted in damage to a papillary muscle holding down the mitral valve. As a result the mitral valve is prolapsing with each heartbeat, which enables the backflow of blood. Where is this blood back flowing to? left ventricle, left atrium, or the aorta.arrow_forwardIf the anterior descending artery had a blood clot at the point where it is formed, which of the following areas would suffer? left atrium and left ventricle right atrium and right ventricle left and right atria and interatrial septum Left and right ventricles and part of interventricular septumarrow_forward
