Question
Chapter 44, Problem 15TYK
Summary Introduction
To review:
The closure of the septum between the two ventricles to create a double respiratory system as an evolutionary advantage.
Introduction:
Animal circulatory system is the network of blood vessels to supply oxygen (O2) and other nutrients to the tissues via heart and removing waste materials such as carbon dioxide (CO2). It can either be the open circulatory system or closed circulatory system. The invasion of terrestrial habitats by the different vertebrate groups led to an evolutionary trend.

Students have asked these similar questions
What are some observations comparing the schematics of the fish and mammal circulatory systems? (Note: these are simplified schematics that don't show every single route for blood, so focus on the heart and the immediate inflow/outflow around the heart.)
Briefly describe the differences among animal circulatory systems. What is an open system versus a closed? What are the anatomical differences among vertebrate hearts?
Many objects designed by engineers have “circulatory systems” of one type or another. Describe at least three or four examples. Why do engineers sometimes include systems of flowing fluids in objects they design? We often hear it said that animal systems can teach us how to design engineered systems. If you were a biologist teaching a group of engineers about the lessons of animal circulatory systems, what principles would you emphasize?

Assume that there are two blood-flow circuits, which are identical except that one of the circuits has a single vessel, whereas the other has two identical vessels in parallel. a.If the resistance of a single vessel is R, what is the overall resistance of the two vessels in parallel? b.If each of the circuits carries the same flow rate, which has the larger pressure drop?

- note whether the statements below are consistent with an open or closed circulatory system. The circulating fluid flows in one direction (unidirectionally) through a circulatory loop. The circulating fluid is called hemolymph. Ostia are pores in the heart, important for circulatory function. The circulating fluid is called blood. The circulating fluid remains in vessels as it moves throughout the organism. Is the more efficient type of circulatory system.arrow_forwardDescribe all the events (steps) that occur during a cardiac cycle for mammals (organisms with a double circulation). How does this cycle contribute to metabolic homeostasis for our cells, and what is the purpose of the valves?arrow_forwardHearts are vascular pumps, but the myocardium also needs an oxygen supply. Use a comparative approach to discuss different solutions to this problem in mammals and birds; in teleost fish; and in tunas, salmonid fish, and sharks. Feel free to use your artistic skills to draw the structure of spongy and compact myocardia in relation to their vascular supply.arrow_forward
- Write the following structures into sequence as a drop of blood would pass them on the double circuit of a mammalian system. aorta to systemic arteries and arterioles aortic semilunar valve inferior and superior vena cavae left atrioventricular valve (also called biscupid or mitral valve) left atrium left ventricle pulmonary capillaries to venules pulmonary trunk/arteries to arterioles pulmonary semilunar valve pulmonary veins right atrioventricular valve (also called tricuspid valve) right atrium right ventricle systemic capillaries to venules and veinsarrow_forwardHearts of mammals are described to have double pump structure. Which choice explains the functional and structural basis for the said description? A. Blood enters the atrium and pumped into ventricle. B. Blood pressure alternates between systolic and diastolic at all times. C. Atrium provide 1 pump, ventricle provides 2nd pump. D. Heart pumps blood simultaneously in systemic and pulmonary circuit.arrow_forwardA heartbeat starts when autorhythmic cells in the 1 [ Select ] (located in the right atrium) create an action potential (electric signal). From there, the signal passes along the internodal pathway to the 2 [ Select] causing the atria to contract. After a slight pause, the signal travels to the 3 [ Select ] , which divides into left and right bundle branches and carries the signal down through the 4 [ Select ] to the apex of the heart. At that point, specialized 5 [ Select ] carry the signal to individual cardiac muscle cells and the 6 [ Select ] contract.arrow_forward
