Cardiovascular System

heart:

muscular organ the size of a closed fist, located behind the breast bone and between the lungs. The pumping action, circulates blood throughout the body

 upper chambers: right and left atrium

 lower chambers: right and left ventricle

 cardiac septum: separates right and left sides of heart

6 Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

Cardiovascular System (cont’d) tricuspid valve: located between right atrium and right ventricle bicuspid valve (mitral valve): located between the left atrium and left ventricle pericardium: outer layer of heart myocardium: middle, thick, muscular layer endocardium: inner lining of the heart

Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

7

Cardiovascular System (cont’d)

blood vessels:

tubelike structures that carry blood throughout the body

 arteries: carry blood containing oxygen & other nutrients away from the heart to the body cells except for the pulmonary artery, which carries carbon dioxide and other waste products to the lungs

 arterioles: smallest arteries

 aorta: largest artery in the body

Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

8

Cardiovascular System (cont’d)

veins:

carry blood containing carbon dioxide and other waste products back to the heart except for the pulmonary vein, which carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart

 venules: smallest veins in the body

 venae cavae: largest veins in the body

 capillaries: connect arterioles with venules; exchange of gases takes place in capillaries

9 Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

Cardiovascular System (cont’d) blood

 plasma: liquid portion of blood in which cells float

 cells

 erythrocytes: red blood cells that carry oxygen

 leukocytes: white blood cells that fight infection

 platelets (thrombocytes): for coagulation

Function of the

Lymphatic System

Removal of excessive tissue fluid, which develops from increased metabolic activity.

(Lymphatics, or lymph vessels, are found throughout most of the body.)

11 Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

Lymphatic System

Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

12

Lymphatic System lymph: transparent, usually colorless, tissue fluid lymph nodes: small, spherical bodies made up of lymphoid tissue; act as filters in keeping substances such as bacteria from the blood

Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

13

Lymphatic System (cont’d) spleen: located in the left side of the abdominal cavity between the stomach and the diaphragm; largest lymphatic organ in the body thymus gland: located anterior to the ascending aorta and posterior to the sternum between the lungs; plays an important role in the development of the body’s immune system

56

Function of the Digestive

System

The digestive organs connect to form a continuous passageway from the mouth to the anus.

With the help of accessory organs, the digestive tract prepares ingested food for use by body cells through physical and chemical digestion and eliminates the solid waste products from the body.

57 Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

Organs of the Digestive System

Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

58

Organs of the Digestive Tract mouth: opening through which food passes into the body

 palate (soft): posterior portion (not supported by bone)

 palate (hard): anterior portion (supported by bone)

 Uvula: soft V-shaped mass that hangs from the soft palate; directs food into the throat

59 Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

Organs of the Digestive Tract

(cont’d) tongue: attached in the posterior region of the mouth. It provides movement of food for mastication, directs food to the pharynx for swallowing, and is a major organ for taste and speech pharynx (throat): performs the swallowing action that passes food from the mouth to the esophagus

60 Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

Organs of the Digestive Tract

(cont’d) esophagus: 10-inch tube that extends from the pharynx to the stomach stomach: J-shaped sac that mixes and stores food container for food

 fundus: uppermost domed portion of the stomach body: central portion of the stomach pylorus: lower part of the stomach that connects to the small intestine antrum: portion of the pylorus that connects to the body of the stomach

61 Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

Organs of the Digestive Tract

(cont’d) stomach (cont’d)

 pyloric sphincter: ring of muscle that guards the opening between the stomach and duodenum small intestine: 20-foot canal extending from the pyloric sphincter to the large intestine

 duodenum: 1st 10 to 12 inches of small intestine

 jejunum: 2nd portion; approx. 8 feet

 ileum: 3rd portion; approx. 11 feet connects with large intestine

62

Helpful Information ileum is the third portion of the small intestine ilium are pelvic bones

63

Organs of the Digestive Tract

(cont’d) large intestine: canal approx. 5 feet and extends from the ileum to the anus

 cecum: blind U-shaped pouch that is the first portion of the large intestine

 colon: next portion; divided into 4 parts: ascending, transverse, descending, and sigmoid

 rectum: last portion; approx. 8 to 10 inches long, extends from the sigmoid colon to the anus

64 Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

Organs of the Digestive Tract

(cont’d) anus: sphincter muscle that keeps an opening tight at the end of the digestive tract

65

Anatomy of the Large Intestine

Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

66

Accessory Organs salivary glands: produce saliva, which flows into the mouth to begin the digestion process liver: produces bile, which is necessary for the digestion of fats bile ducts: passageways that carry bile; hepatic duct is passageway for bile from liver, and the cystic duct carries bile from the gallbladder; they join to form the common bile duct, which conveys bile to the duodenum

67 Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

Accessory Organs (cont’d) gallbladder: small, saclike structure that stores bile pancreas: produces pancreatic juice, which helps digest all types of food and secretes insulin for carbohydrate metabolism

68 Copyright © 2005 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.

Other Structures peritoneum: serous sac lining of the abdominal and pelvic cavities appendix: small pouch, which has no known function, attached to the cecum abdomen: portion of the body between the thorax and the pelvis
