Definition:The part of the cardiovascular system consisting of all venous vessels. In vertebrates with a double circulation, this can be divided into systemic and pulmonary portions.
Comment:[homology-note] "The appearance of Chordata and subsequently the vertebrates is accompanied by a rapid structural diversification of this primitive linear heart: looping, unidirectional circulation, an enclosed vasculature, and the conduction system.[well established][VHOG]" xsd:string {date_retrieved="2012-09-17", external_class="VHOG:0000277", ontology="VHOG", source="DOI:10.1196/annals.1341.002 Bishopric NH, Evolution of the heart from bacteria to man.
