Lab 5 - Blood Vessel Anatomy

arteries (aa)

carry blood away from heart; oxygenated except for pulmonary circulation and umbilical vessels of fetus

veins (vv)

Blood vessels that carry blood back to the heart

capillaries

mircroscopic connections between arteries and veins; allow for gas and nutrient exchange between vessels and tissues

internal carotid artery

Artery that supplies blood to the brain, eyes, eyelids, forehead, nose, and internal ear; is an internal artery branching off from the common carotid arteries
