DOUBLE CIRCULATION

 DOUBLE CIRCULATION 



  1. The blood flows strictly by a fixed route through Blood Vessels—the arteries and veins. 
  2. Basically, each artery and vein consists of three layers: an inner lining of squamous endothelium, the tunica intima, a middle layer of smooth muscle and elastic fibres, the tunica media, and an external layer of fibrous connective tissue with collagen fibres, the tunica externa. 
  3. The tunica media is comparatively thin in the veins. 
  4. As mentioned earlier, the blood pumped by the right ventricle enters the pulmonary artery, whereas the left ventricle pumps blood into the aorta. 
  5. The deoxygenated blood pumped into the pulmonary artery is passed on to the lungs from where the oxygenated blood is carried by the pulmonary veins into the left atrium. 

  6. This pathway constitutes the pulmonary circulation. The oxygenated blood entering the aorta is carried by a network of arteries, arterioles and capillaries to the tissues from where the deoxygenated blood is collected by a system of venules, veins and vena cava and emptied into the right atrium. 
  7. The systemic circulation provides nutrients, O2 and other essential substances to the tissues and takes CO2 and other harmful substances away for elimination. 
  8. A unique vascular connection exists between the digestive tract and liver called Diagrammatic presentation of a standard ECG  hepatic portal system. 
  9. The hepatic portal vein carries blood from intestine to the liver before it is delivered to the systemic circulation. 
  10. A special coronary system of blood vessels is present in our body exclusively for the circulation of blood to and from the cardiac musculature.

HUMAN CIRCULATORY SYSTEM

😎 Human Circulatory System 😎 Human circulatory framework, additionally called the blood vascular framework comprises of a strong chambered heart, an organization of shut fanning veins and blood, the liquid which is circled.  Heart, the mesodermal determined organ, is arranged in the thoracic hole, in the middle of the two lungs, marginally inclined to one side. It has the size of a held clench hand. It is ensured by a twofold walled membranous sack, pericardium, encasing the pericardial liquid.  Our heart has four chambers, two moderately little upper chambers called atria and two bigger lower chambers called ventricles.  A slight, solid divider called the interatrial septum isolates the privilege and the left atria, while a thick-walled, the between ventricular septum, isolates the left and the correct ventricles.  The chamber and the ventricle of a similar side are likewise isolated by a thick stringy tissue called the atrio-ventricular septum.  Notwithstand...

RADIOACTIVE WASTES

  RADIOACTIVE WASTES  Initially, nuclear energy was hailed as a non-polluting way for generating electricity.  Later on, it was realised that the use of nuclear energy has two very serious inherent problems.  The first is accidental leakage, as occurred in the Three Mile Island and Chernobyl incidents and the second is safe disposal of radioactive wastes.  Radiation, that is given off by nuclear waste is extremely damaging to biological organisms, because it causes mutations to occur at a very high rate.  At high doses, nuclear radiation is lethal but at lower doses, it creates various disorders, the most frequent of all being cancer.  Therefore, nuclear waste is an extremely potent pollutant and has to be dealt with utmost caution.  It has been recommended that storage of nuclear waste, after sufficient pre-treatment, should be done in suitably shielded containers buried within the rocks, about 500 m deep below the earth’s surface.  However,...

RESPIRATORY ORGANS

😀RESPIRATORY ORGANS 😀 👉This cycle of change of O2 from the weather with CO2 introduced via way of means of the telephones is referred to as breathing, commonly referred to as breath .   👉 Uncommon vascularised systems referred to as gills ( branchial breath ) are used by the bulk of the amphibian arthropods and molluscs though vascularised sacks referred to as lungs (aspiratory breath) are used by the earthly systems for the buying and selling of gases. 👉 Among vertebrates, fishes use gills whilst creatures of land and water, reptiles, winged animals and heat blooded creatures breathe thru lungs. 👉 Creatures of land and water like frogs can breathe thru their soggy skin ( cutaneous breath ) moreover.  Human Respiratory System   We have more than one outer nostrils establishing out over the higher lips.  It activates a nasal chamber thru the nasal phase.  The nasal chamber opens into the pharynx , a section of that is the primary access for meals and air....
