Medical School Histology Basics Blood and Lymph Vessels VIBS 243 lab Introduction Multicellular Organisms Need 3 Mechanisms ------1. Distribute oxygen, nutrients, and hormones
2. Collect waste
3. Transport waste to excretory organs Multicellular Organism Needs met by cardiovascular system ------Distribute, Collection, and Transport are the functions of the Cardiovascular system CARDIOVASCULAR Today we want to examine: SYSTEM
How does variation in histological characteristics of different vessels facilitates their contributions to these functions? How does variation in histological characteristics of lymph vessels facilitates their contributions to these functions? CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM Body Lungs
HEART PRODUCES BLOOD Ref code PRESSURE (SYSTOLE) # 10,16,19 Pressure seen along the arterial pathway from a single heart beat
Pulse seen as sudden change in pressure and Two sets of closed vessels velocity is seen only in connected only at the heart the arterial pathway = no pulse in capillaries and venous pathway but steady flow
Velocity seen along the arterial pathway from a single heart beat Ref code CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM # 10,16,19 HEART contraction produces blood pressure during systole but contraction smooth muscle in the walls of other blood vessels reduces blood flow by reducing the caliber of the vessel lumen Variation in walls of blood vessels accommodates mechanical factors and metabolic needs
Vessels vary in size, wall thickness, and shape and size of lumen to facilitate their functions Ref code CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM # 10,16, ELASTIC ARTERIES - CONDUCT BLOOD AND MAINTAIN PRESSURE DURING DIASTOLE CARDIOVASCULAR Ref code SYSTEM # 6,19

Smooth muscle cells of an arteriole
Autoregulation occurs by relaxation of smooth muscle cells in the walls of arterioles if local basal lamina O2 levels are too low; thereby, increasing their caliber that increases local blood flow rate and increases O2 levels in that locale. 126 Bile duct with portal vein, monkey
