    Study Notes

    Anatomy of Blood Vessels and Lymphatic System

    • Arterial wall consists of tunica intima, tunica media, and tunica externa
    • Arteries include elastic and muscular types, with the aorta being the largest elastic artery
    • Terminal vascular bed includes arterioles, capillaries, and venules for fluid exchange
    • Veins have valves, and venous return is supported by various mechanisms
    • Portal circulation involves two capillary beds in the digestive organs and liver
    • Pulmonary circulation involves oxygenation of blood in the lungs
    • Lymphatic system includes lymphatic organs and vessels for fluid and fat transport, and immune defense
    • Lymphatic vascular system is formed by lymphatic capillaries, precollectors, collectors, and vessels
    • Nervous system includes the central and peripheral nervous systems
    • Peripheral nervous system consists of afferent and efferent nerve fibers, myelinated and unmyelinated fibers
    • Peripheral nerve structure includes endoneurium, perineurium, and epineurium
