Básicamente todos los vertebrados tienen el mismo sistema circulatorio. Consta de un corazón muscular y tabicado situado en posición ventral, que actúa como una bomba que impulsa la sangre por los vasos. [...] Por los vasos circula la sangre [...] La sangre sale impulsada por el corazón a través de arterias de paredes elásticas. Éstas se van ramificando en otras de menor diámetro, llamadas arteriolas y éstas en vasos muy delgados y de paredes finas, los capilares. Los capilares se reúnen formando las vénulas que a su vez se agrupan en unos conductos mayores, las venas [...], que llevan de nuevo la sangre al corazón. 1, record 1, Spanish, - capilar

A type of refrigerant control. Usually consists of several feet of tubing having small inside diameter. Friction of liquid refrigerant and bubbles of vaporized refrigerant within tube serve to restrict flow so that correct high side and low side pressures are maintained while the compressor is operating.
