Circulation in the Mammalian !! At birth major circulatory changes adapt the organism for
pulmonary respiration:
Fetus and Changes at Birth 1.- The ductus arteriosus closes as a result of nerve impulses
passing to its muscular wall. These impulses are initiated
!! Dorsal aorta – umbilical arteries reflexly when the lungs are filled with air with the first gasp
!! Umbilical cord – placenta after the delivery.
- In birds, this is usually the day after hatching.
!! Placenta [oxygenated blood] – fetus - Arterial ligament
!! Ductus venosus – postcava – right atrium 2.- The flaplike interatrial valve is pressed against the
interatrial foramen by the sudden increase in pressure in
