Übersetzung für 'aortae' von Englisch nach Deutsch

aortae

Aorten {pl}anat.

Aortas {pl}

• One pair of ostia is found in the third thoracomere, and anterior and posterior dorsal aortae extend outward from the heart.
• The dorsal aortae are paired (left and right) embryological vessels which progress to form the descending aorta.
• The exits for the orbital arteries (which supply the eye and its vicinity with blood) are directly in front of the exits for the dorsal aortae.
• The confusion arises because the vertebral artery drains into the subclavian artery following the disappearance of the dorsal aortae in part of the cervical region.
• Like most reptiles, an iguana has a three-chambered heart with two atria, one ventricle, and two aortae with a systemic circulation.
