Answer 1

Answer:

The types of vessels through which a drop of blood would flow in the systemic circulatory route starting from the aorta are: artery, large, medium and small caliber → arterioles → capillary vessels → venule → veins, small, medium and large caliber.

Explanation:

The circulatory system is part of the cardiovascular system and consists of the blood vessels responsible for carrying blood throughout the body. Each of the blood vessels branches off, forming large-, medium-, and small-caliber vessels.

• Arteries carry oxygenated blood from the heart to all body tissues and organs.
• The capillary vessels are very small in caliber and allow the exchange of blood, nutrients and gases with the tissues.
• Veins are in charge of taking non-oxygenated blood from the whole body and carry to the heart.

From the heart the blood passes to the lungs so that the alveolar gaseous exchange occurs.

If a drop of blood is found in the aortic artery, its pathway through the systemic circulatory route is:

Artery, large, medium and small caliber → arterioles → capillary vessels → venule → veins, small, medium and large caliber.
