The document summarizes the structure and function of the blood vascular system. It describes the main components as the heart, arteries, capillaries and veins. It explains that the heart pumps blood through the arteries which branch and decrease in size, becoming capillaries where nutrients are exchanged with tissues. The capillaries then converge into veins which carry blood back to the heart. It provides details on the layers of blood vessels and specialized capillaries.
Most of the tissue fluid formed at the arterial end of capillaries is absorbed back into the blood by the venous ends of the capillaries and the post-capillary venules.

Blood Vessels and Circulatory system Three principal categories of blood vessels:
Arteries: efferent vessels
Capillaries:
Veins: afferent vessels
Arteries and Arterioles
Three layers surrounding the lumen:
Tunica interna
Tunica media
Tunica externa
Structure of Capillaries
The cardiovascular system is transport system of body
It comprises blood, heart and blood vessels.
The system supplies nutrients to and remove waste products from various tissue of body.
The conveying media is liquid in form of blood which flows in close tubular system.
Tunica Interna – innermost endothelium of simple squamous epithelium + basement membrane
Arteries – have an “internal elastic lamina” of elastic CT to allow for expansion under pressure
Veins – may have “valves” (folds of endothelium + CT) to prevent backflow of blood due to low pressure Microscopic, very thin-walled vessels comprised of endothelium with basement membrane; allows for filtration and reabsorption Found in all tissues of the body except for those that are “avascular” Usually form branching networks (“capillary beds”) within tissues for increased surface area blood flow into capillaries may be regulated by “pre- capillary sphincters” may have a central or “thoroughfare” channel that provides direct connection between “metarteriole” (terminal end of arteriole) & venule
The circulatory system transports fluids throughout the body;
it consists of the cardiovascular and lymphatic systems.
The heart and blood vessels make up the blood transportation network, the cardiovascular system.
Through this system, the heart pumps blood through the body’s vast system of blood vessels.
The blood carries nutrients, oxygen, and waste products to and from the cells.
VASCULAR CIRCUITS
The heart consists of two muscular pumps dividing the circulation into two components:
pulmonary circulations
systemic circulations or circuit
Pulmonary Circulation
Rt ventricle propels low O2 blood into the lungs via the pulmonary arteries.
CO2 is exchanged for O2 in the capillaries of the lungs.
Then the O2 -rich blood is returned via the pulmonary veins to the Lft atrium.
This circuit, from the right ventricle through the lungs to the left atrium, is the pulmonary circulation.
Systemic Circulation
Left ventricle propels the O2 -rich blood through systemic arteries (the aorta and its branches),
exchanging O2 and nutrients for CO2 in the remainder of the body’s capillaries.
Low- O2 blood returns to right atrium via systemic veins (tributaries of the superior and inferior vena cava).
This circuit, from left ventricle to right atrium, is the systemic circulation.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. inflammatory processes
9. ● General Plan of the Vascular Wall:
1. Tunica intima
- 1 layer of endothelial cells supported by
a thin subendothelial layer of loose CT
w/ occasional smooth muscle cells
- internal elastic lamina: separates the
intima from the media in arteries
- composed of elastin
- has fenestrae (holes)
- allows diffusion of substances
to cells deep in vessel wall
- slightly folded
appearance in tissues at
death
10. 2. Tunica Media:
- middle layer
- concentric layers of helically arranged
smooth muscle cells
- elastic fibers & lamellae, reticular fibers of
collagen type III, proteoglycans &
glycoproteins are interposed among &
produced by smooth muscles
- external elastic lamina: thin layer
separating the media & the adventitia in
arteries

- no subendothelial later/ other tunics
14.
15.
16.
17. ● Vasa vasorum:
- “vessels of the vessels”
- often present in large vessels
- arterioles, capillaries, venules in adventitia &
parts of the media
- provides metabolites to cells of respective
layers since walls of large vessels are often
too thick to be nourished solely by
diffusion
- luminal blood alone does not provide
nutrients & O2
for tunica intima
- veins have more vasa vasorum than arteries
since they carry deoxygenated blood
- large arteries supplied more sparesly w/
small sympathetic nerves for control of
vasoconstriction
18. ● Vasomotor nerves
- network of of unmyelinated nerve fibers
- neurotransmitter is norepinephrine
- discharge of norepinephrine from nerves
produce vasoconstriction
- nerves do not enter media of arteries
- neurotransmitter diffuses for several um to
affect smooth muscle cells where gap
junctions propagate response to inner
layers of muscle cells
- nerve endings found in adventitia & media of
veins but its density is less than that of arteries
- Acetylcholine released by nerves act on
endothelium producing nitric oxide w/c
diffuses into smooth muscle cells
- muscle cells relax & vessel lumen is dilated
19. ● Blood Vessels
1. Capillaries
- “exchange vessels”
- composed of a single layer of
endothelial cells in the form of a tube
- ave. diameter: 5- 10 um
- individual length: <50 um
- comprise 90% of all b.v. in body
- total length: 96,000 km
- velocity of blood flow: 0.3 mm/s
- favourable site for exchange of H2
O, CO2
,
substrates, metabolites, solutes,
macromolecules b/w blood & tissue b/c
of thin walls & slow blood flow
20. Endothelial Cells:
- polygonal & elongated in direction of blood flow
- nucleus causes bulge into capillary lumen
- cytoplasm: small Golgi body, mitochondria, free
ribosomes, sparse cisternae of RER
1. small molecules diffuse/actively transported to
plasmalemma of capillary endothelial cells
2. substances diffuse through endothelial
cytoplasm to opposite cell surface
3. discharged into extracellular space
- water & some hydrophobic molecules w/
<1.5 nm diameter & <10 kDain molec.mass diffuse
through intercellular junctions (paracellular pathway)
- pathways for large molecules: pores of
fenestrated capillaries, spaces b/w endothelial cells
of sinusoidal capillaries & pinocytotic vessels
21. Pericytes/Adventitial cells
- cells of capillaries & venules of
mesenchymal origin
- long cytoplasmic processes partly
surrounding the endothelial layer
- enclosed in their own basal lamina
- well-developed networks of myosin,
actin & tropomyosin: contractile function
- proliferate & differentiate to form tunica
media of new b.v. & cells w/ functions
in re-establishing the microvasculature
& its extra-cellular matrix
22. Types of Capillaries
1. Continuous/tight capillary
- most common
- allows regulated exchange of material
- characterized by continuity of cells
- tight occluding junctions seal intercellular
clefts b/w all endothelial cells for minimal
fluid leakage
- found in muscles, CT, exocrine glands &
nervous tissues
- in some places (except NS) numerous
pinocytotic vesicles present on
endothelial cell surfaces
- vesicles appear isolated in cytoplasm
- resp. for transcytosis of macromolecules
across endothelial cytoplasm
23. 2. Fenestrated capillary
- allows more extensive exchange
- characterized by presence of small
circular fenestrae through endothelial cells
- each fenestra usually covered w/ very thin
diaphragm containing heparan
proteoglycans w/o lipid bilayer
- continuous basal lamina covers fenestrae
- macromolecules can cross through
fenestrae
- found in tissues where rapid interchange of
substances occurs b/w tissues & blood
- ex. Kidneys, intestine, choroid plexus
& endocrine glands
24. 3. Sinusoid/ Discontinuous capillary
- allows maximal exchange of
macromolecules & cells b/w tissues &
blood; easy movement of blood cells
- greater diameter than most capillaries
- found in liver, speen, bone marrow &
some endocrine glands
- characterized by:
1. endothelial cells w/ large fenestrae
w/o diaphragm
2. discontinuous layer separated by wide
spaces
3. discontinuous basal lamina
29. ● Arterioles
- repeated branches of muscular arteries
- 1-2 muscle layers
- smallest arteries
- indicate organ's microvasculature where
exchanges of blood & tissue fluid occur
- diameter: <0.5 mm
- lumens as wide as wall is thick
Metarterioles

acting as precapillary sphincters
- allow blood to enter bed of capillaries in a pulsatile
manner
Thorough Channel
- lacks smooth muscle
30. ● Post capillary Venules
- convergence of capillaries & metartioles
● Arteriovenous shuts/ anastomoses
- regulates blood flow by allowing direct
communication b/w arterioles & venules
- richly innervated by sympathetic &
parasympathetic nervous system
- abundant in skeletal muscles, skin of
hands & feet
- when vessels contract, all blood must pass
through capillary network
- when vessels relax, some blood flows to
venules instead of circulating in capillaries
31. ● Anastomoses (cont.,)
- changes in diameter of vessels regulate:
blood pressure
blood flow
temperature
heat conservation
- arterioles in shunts:
- thick, capsule-like adventitia

compared w/ thickness of its wall
32. ● Venules (cont.,)
1. post capillary venules
- diameter: 15-20 um
- w/ pericytes
- participate in exchanges b/w bood &
tissues
- primary site where WBC leave circulation
at sites of infection/tissue damage
2. collecting venules
- convergence of postcapillary venules
- more contractile cells
3. muscular venules
- surrounded by tunica media
- 2-3 smooth muscle layers
33. ● Blood Vessels
2. Arteries
Elastic arteries help stabilize blood flow
- incl. aorta & its larger branches
- b/w elastic laminae:
smooth muscles, reticular fibers,
proteoglycans, glycoproteins
Media:
- elastin produces yellowish colour
- consists of: elastic fibers + series of
concentrically arranged, perforated
elastic laminae whose no. increase
w/ age ≈40: newborn

- incl. aorta & its larger branches
- b/w elastic laminae:
smooth muscles, reticular fibers,
proteoglycans, glycoproteins
Media:
- elastin produces yellowish colour
- consists of: elastic fibers + series of

elastic laminae whose no. increase
w/ age ≈40: newborn
≈70: adults
Intima: thicker than those of muscular artery
Adventitia: underdeveloped
35. - largest arteries are elastic & expand when
heart contracts
- several elastic laminae function to make
blood flow more uniform:
Systole: elastic laminae of large arteries
stretch, reducing the force of pressure
Diastole: elastic rebound of large arteries
help maintain arterial pressure when
ventricular pressure drops
= arterial pressure & blood velocity
decrease & become less
variable as distance from heart
increases
- w/ increasing distance from the heart,
arteries gradually have less elastin and
more smooth muscle
36.
37. Muscular arteries
Media: contraction/relaxation of smooth
muscle cells control blood flow to organs
- contains up to 40 layers of prominent
smooth muscle cells w/c intermingle w/ a
no. of elastic laminae, reticular fibers &
proteoglycans
- external elastic lamina present only in
larger muscular arteries
Intima:
- thin subendothelial layer
- prominent internal elastic lamina
Adventitia:
- consists of CT
- lymphatic capillaries, vasa vasorum, nerves
may penetrate to outer part of media
38.
39. ● Blood Vessels
3. Veins
- blood entering veins under low pressure
- move towards heart by contraction of
tunica media & external compressions from
surrounding muscles & other organs
-valves from tunica intima prevent back-flow
of blood
- most are small or medium veins <1cm
- usually travel parallel w/ corresponding
arteries
Intima usually has a thin subendothelial layer
Media consists of small bundlesof smooth
muscle cells intermixed with reticular fibers
& a delicate network of elastic fibers
Adventitia is collagenous & well-developed
40. Small veins:
- very thin
- 2-3 layers of smooth muscle
Large veins:
- big venous trunks, paired w/ elastic
arteries close to heart
Media:
- thin w/ few thin layers of smooth
muscles
- abundant CT (elastic fibers
Intima: well developed
Adventitia:
- thick & often contains longtitudinal
bundles of smooth muscle
- elastic fibers
41.
42.
43. Valves
- most prominent in large veins
- consists of paired semi-lunar folds of
tunica intima projecting across parts of
the lumen
- rich in elastic fibers
- lined both sides by endothelium
- esp. numerous in veins of legs
- help keep flow of venous blood
directed towards the heart
● HEART
- muscular organ contracting rhythmically,
pumping blood throughout circulatory system
- ventricles pump blood to lungs & body
- atria receives blood from body
44. - walls of all 4 heart chambers consist of 3 tunics:
1. internal endocardium
2. middle myocardium
3. external epicardium
Endocardium
- single layer of squamous endothelial cells on
a thin layer of loose CT (elastic + collagen
fibers + smooth muscle cells)
- subendocardial connects subendothelial
layer to mycardium
- veins, nerves, branches of impulse-
conducting system of heart
45. Myocardium
- thickest tunic
- consists of cardiac muscle cells arranged in
layers surrounding heart chambers in a
complex spiral
- thicker in ventricles than in atria
Epicardium
- covers the heart
- simple squamous epithelium (mesothelium)
supported by a thin layer of CT
- subepicardial layer of loose CT: veins,
nerves, adipocytes
- corresponds to visceral layer of pericardium
(serous membrane of heart)
- small amount of lubricant fluid facilitates
heart's movements in space b/w epicardium
& parietal layer
46. Sinoatrial (SA) node
- located at right atrium
- “pace maker”
- small mass of modified cardiac muscle cells
- in fusiform smaller, w/ fewer myofibrils than
neighbouring muscle cells
Atrioventricular (AV) node
- located at right atrium
- cytoplasmic projections branch in
various directions, forming a network
Atrioventricular bundle
- originates from AV node
- passes interventricular septum & splits into
L & R bundles then branch further to
ventricles
47. - cells/fibers of impulse-conducting system are
modified cardiac muscles functionally integrated
by gap junctions
Purkinje fibers (conducting myofibers)
- 1 or 2 central nuclei
- cytoplasm rich in mitochondria & glycogen
- myofibrils are sparse & restricted to periphery
of cytoplasm
- fibers penetrate myocardial layer of
ventricles, allowing stimulus for contraction
to reach innermost layers of ventricular
musculature
48. - parasympathetic & sympathetic neural
components innervates heart
- ganglionic nerve cells & nerve fibers present
in areas close to SA & AV nodes
- affects heart rate & rhythm
ex. physical excersize
emotional stress
- stimulation of parasympathetic division
(vagus nerve) slows heart beat
- stimulation of sympathetic nerve accelerated
rhythm of pacemaker
