The path of blood going to and from the heart. Anastomoses: vessels going across superficial of heart are interconnected. Many ways to get to same spot on tissue: keeps us from obstructing our circulation, more serious o(cid:272)(cid:272)lusio(cid:374)s (cid:374)or(cid:373)ally o(cid:272)(cid:272)ur further (cid:271)a(cid:272)k i(cid:374) (cid:449)hi(cid:272)h (cid:449)e do(cid:374)"t ha(cid:448)e as many options to reroute blood flow.

Pulmonary arteries: carry deoxygenated blood to lungs. Pulmonary veins: carry oxygenated blood to heart. Generalization, all arteries carry oxygenated blood and all veins carry deoxygenated blood: true to say all arteries carry blood away from heart and all veins carry blood towards heart. The cardiac muscle attaches to a fibrous skeleton to give muscle area to build off of (cardiac myocytes attach to) Fibrous ct: support, elasticity, prevent overexpansion, electrical insulation.
