pulmonary circulation is a _________ pressure system
low
systemic circulation is a ________ pressure system
high
right ventricle → lungs → left atrium is the pathway for which circulation?
pulmonary
left ventricle → tissues → right atrium is the pathway for which circulation?
systemic
which one delivers O2 to other organs and tissues?
systemic circulation
which one picks up O2 at the lungs?
pulmonary circulation
what happens in the ventricular diastole in the cardiac cycle in mammals?
pressure in the atria exceeds ventricular pressure
what happens in the atrial systole?
atrial contraction forces additional blood into ventricles
systole
the period of ventricular contraction
what happens in the ventricular systole?
ventricular contraction pushes the AV valves closed and increases pressure inside the ventricle

both
which one has the extended period of depolarization?
cardiac fibres
an ________ of ______ causes depolarization
increase; Ca2+

which one is cardiac ventricle?

exhalation
positive pressure is created with..
exhalation
crosscurrent
parabronchi are the terminal gas exchange units in birds, through which air flows in one direction
as blood passes the respiratory surface, the high PO2 promotes the formation of…
oxyhaemoglobin
as blood passes through the tissues, O2 diffuses into the tissues and reduces teh blood PO2. the Low PO2 promotes the release of what?
deoxyhaemoglobin
