    Athens. Both scientists base their models of respiration and blood distribution in the body from technological-ladenness of observation. Erasistratus proposes that heart uses force propulsion to distribute air and blood throughout the arteries and veins. His concept focuses on “the filling towards what is being” emptied‚ making the body a quasi-pneumatic machine. Erasistratus believes that blood and air distribution underwent a unidirectional flow (rather than a circulatory one). His model has its

    more oxygen. The pump on the left hand side receives oxygenated blood and then pumps it into the arteries to deliver its oxygen around the body. The deoxygenated blood enters the top right chamber of the heart‚ named the right atrium‚ through two veins. Blood from the upper portion of the body‚ like the head and arms‚ flows in through the superior vena cava. Blood from the lower body‚ which are the legs‚ comes in by the inferior vena cava.

    Introduction Cardiovascular Dynamics and the Cardiovascular Physiology experiments both have multiple goals. The first experiment aims to understand how blood flow‚ pressure gradient‚ and resistance relate to one another. To understand this‚ resistance and contributing factors‚ such as vessel radius‚ viscosity‚ and vessel length must be studied. The effects of vessel radius and stroke volume on the ventricular pump should also examined. The experiment also calls for an understanding of cardiovascular
