Cardiovascular
10
Cardiovascular System: Capillaries converge into venules, which in turn converge into veins that return blood to the heart, completing the closed system of blood circulation.
Pulmonary: Sends oxygen depleted blood to the lungs to pick up oxygen and unload carbon dioxide.
Systematic Circuit: Sends oxygen-rich blood and nutrients to all body cells and removes waste.
Pericardium: A covering that encloses the heart and the proximal ends of the large blood vessels to which it attaches.
Fibrous Pericardium: Outer fibrous bag that surrounds a more delicate, double-layered serous membrane.
Visceral Pericardium: The innermost layer of the serous membrane that covers the heart.
Parietal Pericardium: Forms the inner lining of the fibrous pericardium.
Pericardial Cavity: Space between the parietal and visceral layers of the pericardium.
Pericarditis: Inflammation of the pericardium.
Epicardium: Outer layer that corresponds to the visceral pericardium.
