A&P arteries

systemic circulation

QuestionAnswer
aorta supplies blood to what parts of the body? all parts
the first branch of aortic arch brachiocephalic trunk
what arises from brachiocephalic trunk? R common carotid & R subclavian arteries
two arteries arising separately from aortic arch L common carotid & L subclavian arteries
R common carotid arises from brachiocephalic artery
L common carotid arises from directly from aortic arch
3 prominent branches of external carotid artery facial, superficial temporal, occipital
internal carotid supplies blood to the brain
R subclavian artery arises from brachiocepahlic artery
L subclavian arises from directly from aortic arch
R & L subclavian arteries supply blood to arms, shoulders, chest wall , back, brain, spinal cord
vertebral artery arises from subclavian artery
both vertebral arteries supply blood to the brain and spinal cord
as each subclavian passes the first rib and enters the shoulder and armpit it becomes the axillary artery
the axillary artery supplies blood to the shoulder and head of humerous
each axillary continues in the upper arm as the brachial artery
the brachial artery supplies blood to the rest of the upper arm
each brachial artery divides at the elbow to form the radial and ulnar arteries
the radial and ulnar a's supply blood to the forearm
the radial and ulnar a's reunite to form the palmar arches in hand
celiac trunk arises from the abdominal aorta just inf. to diaphragm
celiac trunk gives rise to which 3 branches? common hepatic, left gastric, splenic
common hepatic supplies blood to the liver, stomach, gall bladder, and sm. intestine
L gastric supplies blood to stomach and lower esophagus
splenic artery supplies blood to spleen, stomach and pacreas
superior mesentaric arises from the abdominal aorta about 1 in. below celiac trunk
sup. mesentaric supplies blood to sm. intestine, pancreas and most of lg. intestine
renal arteries emerge from abdominal aorta just inferior to sup. mesentaric
renal a's supply blood to kidneys
gonadal a's arise from abdominal aorta just below renal a's
gonadal a's supply to either ovaries or testes
inf. mesentaric arises from abdominal aortaa below gonadal a's
inf. mesentaric supply to last part of colon and rectum
near 4th lumbar vertebra, aorta divides to form the two common iliac a's
common iliac a's supply t o pelvis and lower extremities
why are common iliac a's called as such? b/c each one divides forming and internal and external iliac artery
internal iliac is the inner branch of the common iliac
internal iliac supplies to pelvic organs and medial side of thigh
external iliac is the outer, larger branch of the common iliac
external iliac supplies to lower extremities
after penetrating lower abdominal wall, the external iliac becomes the femoral artery
about 2 in. below abdominal wall, femoral gives rise to the deep femoral
deep femoral supplies to some of skin of thigh and deep thigh muscles
behind the knee, femoral becomes the popliteal
the popliteal divides to become the anterior and posterior tibial a's
post. tibial passes down post. surface of tibia
as the ant. tibial passes across the top of the ankle it becomes the dorsalis pedis
the dorsalis pedis artery supplies to the ankle and part of the foot
the dorsalis pedis divided to form the dorsal arch
sm. a's branch off the dorsal arch & supply to the toes and parts of feet
post. tibial divides at ankle to form arterial loop called plantar arch
plantar arch supplies toes and part of foot
basilar artery is formed by the union of the two vertebral a's
basilar a' supplies to spinal cord, medulla oblongata, pons
post. cerebral a's supply to the post. part of cerebrum
post. communicating a's connect the post. cerebral a's to internal carotid a's
middle cerebral supply to most of temporal, parietal and frontal lobes
pulmonary trunk carries ________ blood out of the __________ deoxygenated, right ventricle
R & L pulmonary a's are colored blue on drawings- why? b/c they carry deoxygentated blood
R& L pulmonary v's are colored red on drawings- why? they return oxygenated blood from lungs
