Q

one major artery delivers blood to an organ or region

28
Q

an ____ ______ is an artery that provides only one path for blood to reach an organ or region

29
Q

____________ joining together of blood vessels two or more vessels converge to supply or drain same region

A

anastomosis

30
Q

_______ _________ two or more converging arteries to supply same region

A

arterial anastomosis

31
Q

_______ ________ armoire comment then arterial anastomosis comma two or more veins drain same body region

A

venous anastomosis

32
Q

____________ _________ (shunt) transports blood from artery directly to vein, allows areas to be bypassed if body hypothermic

A

atriovenous anastomosis

33
Q

another name for a trio Venus anastomosis is?

34
Q

another name for a shunt is?

A

atriariovenous astomosis

35
Q

this allows areas to be bypassed if body is hypothermic

A

arteriovenous anastomosis

36
Q

what is a portal system?

A

two capillary beds in sequence

artery- capillary bed- portal vein- capillary bed - vein

37
Q

_____ ____-______ _____ is the sum of diameters of all vessels of a certain type, collectively the total areas of capillaries is the largest because there are so many capillaries.

A

total cross-sectional area

38
Q

______ _____ _______ is inversely related to Total cross-sectional area, blood flow is slow in capillaries, allowing for exchange between Blood and Tissue fluid

A

blood flow velocity

39
Q

total cross-sectional area is __________ related to blood flow velocity

A

inversely related

larger total cross-sectional area lower blood flow velocity

40
Q

how are substances exchanged across capillaries? ________ substances leave or enter blood according to their concentration gradient

A

diffusion ( high to low concentrations)

41
Q

larger solids like some proteins pass through _________ or gaps in ________

A

fenestrations or gaps in sinusoids

42
Q

small solids Like Oxygen can diffuse through __________ cells or ___________ _____

A

endothelial cells or intercellular clefts

43
Q

true diffusion oxygen hormones nutrients move from blood to _________ _____

A

interstitial fluid

44
Q

_______ _____ and ______ diffuse from tissue to blood

A

carbon dioxide and waste

45
Q

in __________ _________ endothelial cells use pinocytosis and exocytosis, take substances in by pinocytosis. transport vesicle across South, secrete substances from Other Side by exocytosis

A

vesicular transport

46
Q

certain hormones in fatty acids are transported across capillaries by?

A

vesicular transport, endocytosis and exocytosis

47
Q

in this process fluids flow down pressure gradient, large amounts of fluids and dissolved substances move in a direction dependent pot pressure of opposing forces

48
Q

the opposing forces in bulk flow are?

A

hydrostatic pressure vs. colloid pressure

49
Q

in bulk flow _________ is when fluid moves out of blood, fluid and small solutes flow easily through capillaries openings, large solids blocked, occurs on arterial end of capillary

A

filtration

50
Q

and bulk flow _________ is when fluid move back into blood, occurs at venous end

A

reabsorption

51
Q

_________ pressure is the force exerted by a fluid comma in blood is the force exerted per unit area by blood on vessel wall, promotes filtration from capillary

A

hydrostatic pressure

52
Q

two types of hydro static pressure at the capillary

A

blood hydrostatic pressure, interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure

53
Q

interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure is close to_______ at most times

54
Q

__________ promotes filtration from capillary

A

blood hydrostatic pressure

55
Q

_______ _______ _______ pressure is osmotic pole do to protein salads

A

colloid osmotic pressure

56
Q

what are two types of colloid osmotic pressure?

A

blood colloid osmotic pressure, interstitial fluid colloid osmotic pressure.

57
Q

considering there are few proteins present in interstitial fluid ______ ________ _______ ______ pressure is relatively low

A

interstitial fluid colloid osmotic pressure

58
Q

blood colloid osmotic pressure is clinically termed?

A

oncotic pressure

59
Q

what type of pressure draws fluid into blood due to blood proteins slash promotes reabsorption

A

blood colloid osmotic pressure

60
Q

how is net filtration pressure calculated?

A

net hydrostatic pressure - net colloid osmotic pressure= net filtration pressure

61
Q

how do you calculate net colloid osmotic pressure?

A

blood colloid osmotic pressure - interstitial fluid colloid osmotic pressure

62
Q

how do you calculate net hydrostatic pressure

A

subtract interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure from blood hydrostatic pressure.

since interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure is close to zero at most times it is typically just blood hydrostatic pressure

63
Q

NFP stands for?

A

net filtration pressure

64
Q

cop stands for

A

colloid osmotic pressure

65
Q

HP stands for?

A

hydrostatic pressure
