Anatomy of Arteries and Veins in the Human Body, Quizzes of Physiology

Detailed definitions and terms related to the anatomy of arteries and veins in the human body, including the arch of aorta, subclavian artery, vertebral artery, common carotid, external and internal carotid, thoracic and abdominal aorta, iliac artery, femoral artery, popliteal artery, anterior and posterior tibial artery, dorsalis pedis, and sinuses in the brain. It also explains the flow of blood through these vessels and their connections.

The External Iliac becomes:

DEFINITION 19

femoral as it runs along the femur; around the head of the

femur is the end of the external iliac

TERM 20

The Femoral becomes the:

DEFINITION 20

popliteal as it crosses the popliteal region

The popliteal splits once it crosses the:

knee

TERM 22

The popliteal splits into:

DEFINITION 22

the anterior tibial and posterior tibial

Right Medial

Planter

goes into the toes

TERM 27

Skeletal muscle helps

DEFINITION 27

push blood through the veins of the body (contractions push

away - valves keep blood moving forward)

TERM 28

Thoracic Pressure Gradient

DEFINITION 28

Inhale (creates high pressure), exhale (creates low pressure

which pulls blood upward)

TERM 29

IVC

DEFINITION 29

areas below the heart
