The Tell Tale Heart is an amazing story with a very interesting plot. The characters are uniquely created with distinctive traits. The narrator is an intriguing guy with an awkward obsession. He had the upmost respect and love for the old man. The old man had never wronged or criticized him. Soon his hatred for one of the old man’s physical features causes him to conjuring up a master plan of destruction.

These veins are usually found on the legs, back of the calves, thighs, and face.

The vena cava is divided into two, they are the inferior and superior vena cava. De-oxygenated blood travels through superior vena cava and inferior vena cava (or the coronial sinus). These are the large vein that return deoxygenated blood back from the upper and lower part of the body to heart. The deoxygenated blood means that the blood has very low oxygen because the tissues in the body have used up the oxygen in the blood making the blood to turn darker instead of bright red.

Blood vessels are the conduits leading to and from the heart transporting blood throughout the body (bluedoorlabs). The arteries carry blood away from the heart whereas the veins carry blood back to the heart. The capillaries allow exchange of ions, small molecules and fluids. The arteries and veins are composed of three layers known as the tunica intima, tunica media, and tunica externa. The tunica interna is a cell that lines with the blood vessels. The tunica media is the middle layer, it changes the diameter of the blood vessel, that process is known as vasomotion. Tunica externa is the outer layer, it consists of loose connective tissue.

     In Edgar Allan Poe’s short-story, “The Tell-Tale Heart,” the storyteller tries to convince the reader that he is not mad. At the very beginning of the story, he asks, "...why will you say I am mad?" When the storyteller tells his story, it's obvious why. He attempts to tell his story in a calm manner, but occasionally jumps into a frenzied rant. Poe's story demonstrates an inner conflict; the state of madness and emotional break-down that the subconscious can inflict upon one's self.

As I ambled along the narrow, winding path through the dense woods, I wondered again why I had agreed to this...It had been an arduous journey, and I was ready to turn back when the woods opened and there sat the dilapidated, old house we had been told about. The perfect location, or so we were told.

Retroperitoneal organs include the aorta, inferior vena cava, duodenum, kidneys, ascending and descending colon, pancreas (except the tail), ureters, urinary bladder, and

The cephalic vein flows upward along the radial aspect of the forearm. Its size readily accommodates a large needle, while its position provides easy access and natural splinting. This vein can be accessed from the wrist to the upper arm (using the most distal region of the vein first). These veins tend to “roll” so “anchoring” the vein during venipuncture essential.

The most common location most of us get blood drawn from is where your elbow bends also known as the antecubital fossa. This location is where you will be able to locate the Median Cubital Vein. The median cubital vein is the superficial vein that connects the cephalic and the basilic vein that are the largest veins in the arm. When puncturing this vein be cautious to not penetrate the bicep tendon or the brachial artery.

Since everything is working as planned, my engines are starting and I’m advancing into the right femoral vein, going up into the thigh and pelvic region parallel with the femoral artery (Inner Body, Cardiovascular System, 2012). The femoral vein is a continuation of the popliteal vein and from lower extremities conducts blood back to the heart. I’m losing speed as I’m going against gravity entering the abdomen passing the inguinal ligament going towards iliac vein. Starting at the groin area the external iliac vein intersects with the internal iliac vein and together combine to form the common iliac vein, which allows blood circulation from the lower abdomen and legs (Wise Geek, common iliac vein, 2012). I’m getting ready to travel through the hepatic veins which are blood vessels that drain deoxygenated blood

‘The Tell-Tale Heart,’ a Gothic short story by Edgar Allen Poe takes on the first-person perspective. An unnamed narrator opens the story by addressing the reader and claiming that he is nervous however not mad. The man tells a story confessing to having killed an old man, and in the process he attempts to defend his sanity.
