The center of the circulatory system is the heart, which is

situated in the thoracic cavity and in contact with the

diaphragm. In the right ventricle, the venous blood is collected

and pumped through the pulmonary artery and into the

lung where the blood is oxygenated. The veins of the lung

transport the blood to the left ventricle, where it is pumped

through the aorta and its branches (arteries) in the human

body. Arteries and veins mostly run parallel. The venous

blood from the intestine reaches the liver via the portal

vein.

Organization of the lymphatic system.

Course of the main lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes in

the body. Dotted red line = border between lymphatic vessels

draining toward the right and the left venous angles.

Major lymph vessels of the trunk (green). Blue = veins,

red = arteries, white = nerves.

Lymphatic vessels originate in the tissue spaces (lymph

capillaries) and unite to form larger vessels (lymphatics).

These resemble veins but have a much thinner wall, more

valves, and are interrupted by lymph nodes at various

intervals. Large groups of lymph nodes are located in the

inguinal and axillary regions, deep to the mandible and

sternocleidomastoid muscle, and within the root of the

mesentery of the intestine. The lymphatic vessels of the

right half of the head and neck, the right thorax, and the

right upper limb drain toward the right venous angle; those

of the rest of the body, toward the left venous angle.

the vagus nerve and the sympathetic trunk has been dissected.

functional portions of the nervous system

The nervous system can be divided into three functionally

distinct parts:

1. The cranial part, which comprises the great sensory

organs and the brain.

2. The spinal cord, which shows a segmental structure and

serves predominantly as a reflex organ.

3. The autonomic nervous system, which controls the

involuntary functions (subconscious control) of organs

and tissues. The autonomic part of the nervous system

forms many delicate plexuses near or within the organs.

At certain places these plexuses contain aggregations of

nerve cells (prevertebral and intramural ganglia).

The spinal nerves leave the spinal cord at regular intervals.

The ventral rami of the spinal nerves form the cervical and

brachial plexus, which innervates the upper extremity, and

the ventral rami of the lumbar and sacral spinal nerves form

the lumbosacral plexus, which innervates the pelvis and

genital organs and the lower extremity.

2 Head and Neck

2.1 Skull and Muscles of the Head

Muscles of mastication and facial muscles (lateral aspect).

The auricle has been removed.

The head contains the brain and the

great sensory organs (neurocranium).

Anteriorly, the facial bones, the

facial muscles, and the muscles of

mastication have been developed

(viscerocranium). The base of the

skull is slightly bent so that the

structures of the viscerocranium

become located underneath the

neurocranium, a specifity of the

human head. Therefore mimic

movements are possible in the

human face.

1 Temporalis muscle

2 Frontal bone

3 Zygomatic bone

4 Temporomandibular joint

5 External acoustic meatus

6 Maxilla

7 Mandible

8 Masseter muscle

Lateral aspect of the skull with muscles of mastication

(temporalis and masseter muscles = red).

The base of the skull is bent (grey line).
