Venous System of Pigeon – Detailed Guide with Diagrams & Portal System Notes
Detailed Anatomy: The Venous System of the Pigeon The venous system brings the deoxygenated blood back to the heart from the body for oxygenation and oxygenated blood is transported via arterial system of pigeon back again to the body, completing the circulation in pigeon (birds). The Venous system consist of caval veins pulmonary veins, hepatic portal system and renal portal system. Figure: 1 A detailed anatomical study of the avian venous system, illustrating how deoxygenated blood returns to the heart via the precaval and postcaval veins, featuring the specialized renal portal system unique to birds. ( Please refer to the Biology Diagram provided to get a greater understanding of the structure.) Anatomy of Avian Circulatory system consisting Venous system with hepatic portal system, is similar in structure and function to that of mammals. I. Caval veins The Venous blood from the body returns to the heart's right auricle via three large caval veins...
