- Cinferior
11When blood returns to the heart via two veins, this is known as [blank_start]systemic[blank_end] circulation.

21The left ventricular output is distributed to the tissues of the body in proportion to their metabolic rate. The muscle takes 20% of O2 consumption at rest and receives 20% of the cardiac output.
This is different in the [blank_start]kidneys[blank_end] because its [blank_start]excretory[blank_end] function requires a [blank_start]high[blank_end] blood flow. This causes other tissues to receive less e.g. [blank_start]cardiac muscle[blank_end]. To compensate, it extracts an unusually [blank_start]high[blank_end] proportion of the O2 (~[blank_start]65-75[blank_end]%), whereas normal = ~[blank_start]25[blank_end]%. It is very [blank_start]efficient[blank_end] at taking [blank_start]oxygen[blank_end] from blood.- Akidneys

61[blank_start]Fibrinolysis[blank_end] is the breakdown of fibrin once it has already formed.
[blank_start]Plasmin[blank_end] is the factor that breaks down fibrin.
Endothelial cells secrete tissue [blank_start]plasminogen[blank_end] activator (t-PA) at sites of injury. t-PA binds to [blank_start]fibrin[blank_end] and converts [blank_start]plasminogen[blank_end] to [blank_start]plasmin[blank_end], which digests fibrin. [blank_start]Plasminogen[blank_end] activator inhibitors-[blank_start]1[blank_end] and -[blank_start]2[blank_end] (PAI-[blank_start]1[blank_end], PAI-[blank_start]2[blank_end]) inactivate t-PA; α2-antiplasmin (α2-AP) inactivates plasmin.- AFibrinolysis
