How can you trace a drop of blood from the pulmonary artery to the right radial artery?
Why would you want to do that. You would have to cut open the heart and watch the blood move from the pulmonary artery through the heart and into the right radial artery.
What is the correct sequence of arteries that a drop of blood would flow through as it entered the kidney and moved toward a glomerulus?
Renal artery - segmental artery - interlobar artery - arcuate artery - interlobular artery
Only artery in the body that carries deoxygenated blood?
The only artery that is supposed to carry deoxygenated blood is the pulmonary artery. It carried deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs for oxygenation. Any artery can carry deoxygenated blood, so be careful how you word questions.
What are the pathway of a drop of blood from the aorta to the left occipital lobe of the brain and What are the structures through which it flow?
The drop of blood travels as follows: From the aortic arch to the left subclavian artery. Then through the left vertebral, passing though the transverse foramina of the cervical vertebrae (from C6-C1) At the C1 level the vertebral arteries travel across the posterior arch of the atlas before entering the foramen magnum into the skull. From here, it merges with with that vertebral artery on the right side to become the basilar artery. The blood then travels through a branch of the basilar known as the posterior cerebral artery. This artery's branches are divided into two sets, the ganglionic branches and, the cortical branches. The particular artery largely supplying the occipital lobe is known as the parietoöccipital or parieto-occipital artery, and is a cortical branch.
What is carotid baroreflexes?
There are receptors on the lining of the carotid artery that sense a change in blood pressure. When they are stimulated, they can cause a drop in blood pressure/heart rate.
