What are the two circuits of the cardiovascular system? What does it mean to say that the cardiovascular system is a closed syst

em? What would happen if there was less blood pumped to the systemic circuit than the pulmonary circuit?

Answer:

The two circuits of the cardiovascular system are: Pulmonary Circuit and Systematic Circuit. The pulmonary circuit is shorter than the systemic and is responsible for carrying deoxygenated blood to the lungs from the right atrium, for oxygenation. The systemic circuit is longer and leaves the aortic artery, carrying oxygenated blood throughout the body and nutrients for survival. If less blood were pumped into the systemic circuit, this amount would not be sufficient to compensate for the organism's needs, with the corresponding consequences that this would entail.  

It is said that the cardiovascular system is a closed system because blood travels inside a network of blood vessels without leaving them.

List these events in the correct order for CSF flow in the CNS. a: CSF flows into the arachnoid villi b: CSF enters the blood c:
alex41 [277]

Answer:

E-----> C------>D------->A------->B

Explanation:

The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is the fluid of the central nervous system. It allows for buoyancy as the brain is immersed in the fluid, protection, excretion of waste products from the brain and many more. The production of CSF is by the CHORIOD PLEXUS  in the lateral, third and fourth ventricles. The CSF flows through the interventricular foramen from the lateral to the third ventricle and from the third ventricle into the fourth ventricle through the cerebral aqueduct which connects them. The CSF then flows into the subarachnoid space. Absorption of CSF into the blood is by the arachnoid villi and then the CSF enters the blood.

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

  • Protozoans → would not have survived because they have no way to produce their own food → Heterotrophs
  • Algae → would have survived without this food source → Heterotrophs

Explanation:

The protist kingdom is composed of two main groups.  The principal difference between them is that algae can produce their own food, while protozoans need to ingest other organisms or organic molecules to survive.

  • Algaes are autotroph
  • Protozoans are heterotroph

<u>Protozoans</u>:

Microscopic unicellular organisms, eukaryotic and heterotrophs -predators or detritivores-. Most of them are aquatic free-living organisms, but some species are parasites. They feed on<u> bacteria</u>, other organic wastes, and other microscopic organisms. The phagocytosis process is normally used to ingest the food, invaginating their cell membrane.  

<u>Algae</u>:

Eukaryotic micro- or macroscopic organisms. Autotroph and photosynthetic. They might be either unicellular or pluricellular. They use sunlight to synthesize organic matter from water, CO₂, and mineral salts. Unicellular ones can be free-living or associate with others to form colonies. They are part of the phytoplankton and are ingested by heterotrophic organisms. Pluricellular algae do not create real tissues but they compose a tale. The depth at which they inhabit depends on the pigments they produce. All of them inhabit fresh or sea waters.
