Of or pertaining to the higher division of plants, that is, the phænogamous plants, all of which are vascular, in distinction from the cryptogams, which to a large extent are cellular only
Vascular is used to describe the channels and veins through which fluids pass in the bodies of animals and plants. the oldest known vascular plants. vascular diseases of the legs. relating to the tubes through which liquids flow in the bodies of animals or in plants (vascularis, from vasculum , from vas; VASE)
Consisting of, or containing, vessels as an essential part of a structure; full of vessels; specifically Bot
Pertaining to plants with tissues that have the ability to conduct fluid using Xylem and Phloem
{s} having vessels or ducts; of or pertaining to vessels which carry fluids (i.e. blood, sap, etc.)
Term applied to a plant tissue or region consisting of conductive tissue; also, to a pathogen that grows primarily in the conductive tissues of a plant
bundle A structure of vascular plants that runs up through the roots, into the stems, and out into the leaves, and whose function is transport of water, ions and dissolved organic solutes within the plant
pertaining to, or containing, special ducts, or tubes, for the circulation of sap
Pertaining to the channels that carry body fluids, usually used in connection with the blood vessels
Operating by means of, or made up of an arrangement of, vessels; as, the vascular system in animals, including the arteries, veins, capillaries, lacteals, etc
A general term used to describe the area on the body where blood is drawn for circulation through a hemodialysis circuit A vascular access may be an arteriovenous fistula, graft or a catheter
of or relating to or having vessels that conduct and circulate fluids; "vascular constriction"; "a vascular bundle"
Refers to blood vessels Vasoconstrictor - A drug or hormone that causes constriction of the blood vessels
of or pertaining to the conductive tissues of a plant stem These tiny tubes move water up from the roots, and sugars and other materials down from the leaves
Any of various plants, such as the ferns and seed-bearing plants, in which the phloem transports sugar and the xylem transports water and salts. or tracheophyte Any plant that has a specialized conducting system consisting mostly of phloem (food-conducting tissue) and xylem (water-conducting tissue), collectively called vascular tissue. Ferns, gymnosperms, and flowering plants are all vascular plants. In contrast to the nonvascular bryophytes, the more conspicuous generation among vascular plants is the sporophyte (see alternation of generations). Because they have vascular tissues, these plants have true stems, leaves, and roots, modifications of which enable species of vascular plants to survive in a variety of habitats under diverse, even extreme, environmental conditions. This ability to flourish in so many different habitats is the primary reason that vascular plants have become dominant among terrestrial plants
1 in animals the blood circulatory system and the water vascular system in echinoderms that manipulate the tube feet 2 in plants the tissue that serves to conduct water throughout plants
The lateral vascular neck restraint (also called sleeper hold) is utilized blood restriction hold in law enforcement, and can be performed from behind the suspect (or from the front when the officer is "on top" of the suspect) by putting an arm around the neck of the suspect, with the crook of the elbow over the midline of the neck. By pinching the arm together while assisting with the free hand, the carotid arteries and jugular veins were compressed on both sides of the neck
