which gets pumped into the right ventricle which pumps it through the semi-lunar valve and through to the pulmonary artery. The blood flow then goes to the lungs where it is oxygenised‚ the newly oxygenised blood re-enters the heart via the pulmonary vein into the left atrium‚ the blood then goes through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. From here it is pumped by a strong muscle and straight through the aorta and around the body. Pulmonary System = includes heart and lungs it carries De-oxygenated

to get a physical 3D model of the brain so surgeons can study the arteries and veins. Surgeons states that "If one twin ends up with too many veins‚ its heart will collapse; leave a twin with too few veins‚ and its brain will swell with blood. Making it extremely difficult when it comes to untangling the veins." (Jabr‚ Ferris). Most likely conjoined twins‚ share a skull not a brain‚ don’t share arteries‚ but their veins are very tangled

to wall and the cavity areas‚ the heart has blood vessels that are connected to the heart. They include: the two vena cavas‚ which are connected to the right atrium‚ the pulmonary arteries‚ which are connected to the right ventricle‚ the pulmonary veins‚ which are connected to the left atrium‚ and the aorta‚ which is connected to the left ventricle. The last part of the heart is the heart valves. Some of them come in pairs‚ and they are: the atrioventricular valves‚ and the semilunar valves. The

Variagated Leaves Total absence of plastid pigments causes a sector of a leaf or stem to have white patches. This condition is termed variegation (Metrosideros). Variegation is produced when there is a cell mutation (cytological chimera)‚ and all cells produced from that mutant mother cell lack the pigments‚ either because plastids are not present or the plastid cannot complete the manufacture of the pigment apparatus. White‚ therefore‚ is where color is missing. The zones where chloroplasts are

There is an elaborate system of collecting vessels which travel the lymph from the capillaries through lymphatic vessels‚ lymph nodes‚ larger lymphatic vessels to lymph trunks and finally to the large veins of the neck at the junction of the right and left internal jugular and subclavian veins where the lymph drains into the blood stream. Lymph glands or nodes are interspaced in the pathways of the collecting vessels and filter the lymph and remove toxic substances as it passes through them and

Joseph Clark a man arrested in Ohio set on death row on 1987. He ended up being executed 22 years and 5 month later after his arrest. It took 22 minutes for the execution technicians to find a vein. The vein collapsed after the start of the injection and Clark’s arm started to swell‚ an autopsy found 19 puncture marks resulting from attempts to execute him. It took the technicians 90 minutes to execute Clark. That’s absurd after two attempts they should’ve found a different way to execute him instead

Each artery divides into small branches within the kidney tissues. The blood leaves kidneys via the renal vein. Kidneys We have two kidneys of which are bean shaped and dark red in colour. The ureter and renal vein both emerge from the kidney and the renal artery enters the kidney at the hilum. There
