Hyperventilation does what to pH? - ✔✔Increases blood pH during acidosis;
slowing breathing during alkalosis will decrease pH
How much blood in adult human? - ✔✔5 L/quarts
Composition of blood - ✔✔...
Cardiac cycle - ✔✔First diastole: blood flows from sup and inf vena cavae to
right atrium through open AV/tricuspid valve. SA node of right atrium contracts
to fill R ventricle w blood. Impulse transmitted through AV node, R ventricle
contracts and initiates first systole. Tricuspid valve closes, pulmonary semilunar
opens. Blood pumped from pulmonary arteries to lungs. Blood from lungs fills L
atrium during second diastole. SA node triggers mitral valve to open, blood fills
left ventricle. During second systole, mitral valve closes and L ventricle
contracts, blood pumped from aorta to rest of body.
Lymph vascular system functions - ✔✔Return of excess fluid to blood; return of
proteins from capillaries; transport of fats from digestive tract; disposal of
debris and cellular waste
Thymus functions - ✔✔Thymosin promotes Tcell formation, T cells mature here
