A&P Exam #2 Flashcards
How are blood flow, resistance, and pressure related? What is the equation?
F= delta P, F=1/R, F= delta P/R
How does exercise change blood flow to specific tissues?
SKM= arterioles dilate (metabolic)=Less BP → extrinsic SNS increases→ BV constriction → Decrease BV to guts/ kidneys
Elastic arteries
-near heart→aorta And branches
-Pressure reservoir, expand and recoil
Muscular Arteries
-Deliver O2 to organs→ distribution
-thickest tunica media= vasoconstriction
Arterioles
-Regulate blood flow, most resistant
-Can constrict or dilate from hormones, neural cues, and chemicals
Continues Capillaries
least permeable (tight junction), most common: skin, CNS, muscles
Fenestrated Capillaries
filtration, absorption(intestines), large pores= greater permeability
Sinusoid Capillary
most permeable: liver, marrow, spleen, medulla, v. large pores
Precapillary Sphincter
Regulates flow in and out of capillaries
Venules
leaky capillaries
Veins Details
-65% of blood volume= blood resevoir
-valves= prevent backflow of blood (tunica intima=sl valves)
Venous sinuses
Varicose Veins
-Leaky valves
-from genetic, obesity, pregnancy, and hormones
Tunica Intimina
-simple squamous
-inner most layer
-Elastic membrane
Tunica Media

-Has elastic fibers,nerves, vaso vasorum
How does Blood flow
areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure
Blood Flow (F)
Volume of blood per minute
Blood Pressure
-Force Exerted on Vessel wall by flowing blood
-pressure gradient is a force that keeps blood moving
Blood Resistance (TPR)
-caused by viscosity
-vessel length
-BV diameter
What happens when LV Contracts (Arterial Pressure)
-blood stretches aorta
-systolic BP= 120 mmHg
-high pressure from blood in arteries
What happens when LV Relaxes?
-caused by aortic SL valve closing
-aorta wall recoils= keeps blood flowing
-Diastolic BP= 80mmHg
How doe elastic arteries keep blood flowing?
auxillary pumps
What is Pulse Pressure
Systolic-diastolic= 40mmHg
MAP Formula
MAP=DBP+ pulse pressure (PP)/3
What decreases as you move away from the heart?
Pulse pressure, MAP, and elastic recoil
Blood Pressure in Capillaries
35-17 mmHg
What happens when the capillary pressure is to great
-capillary walls are fragile and permeable
-greater pressure creates too much filtration
Venous BP
17-10mmHg
What helps veins bring blood back towards the heart?
-muscular pump
-Respiratory pump
-SNS Venoconstriction
Muscular Pump
muscle contracts and moves blood
Respiratory Pump
-inhale= air into lungs and blood into heart
SNS Vasoconstriction
-decrease vol. of blood in the venous system
-increase heart flow to the heart
What does increase Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) do?
-increased resistance from increased constriction and thus afterload
-increased Cardiac Output= increased stroke volume and HR and SNS
What are the 2 ways Blood pressure is controlled?
- Short Term= Neural and Hormonal
2.Long term= renal
What happens if MAP decreases?
1.stretch decreases
2. decrease firing of CN 9 & 10= increase SNS & decreased SNS
3. Increase Stroke Volume
4. Increase Contractility
5. Increase Heart Rate
6. Increase Venous Constriction= more blood return
7. Increase arteriole constriction
What brings MAP to set point?
-increase CO
-Increase Resistance
Baroreceptors
-Found: internal carotid sinus and aortic arch
1. Sends signals of stretch to cardio inhibitory center (solitary nucleus)
2. Sends back PSNS Response
-Less HR
-Less contractility
3. Send Signals back SNS
-Cardiac Center
-To sympathetic trunk ganglia→ more heart rate,more contractillity
-Vasocconstrict blood vessels
Tells kidneys (RAAS)
Hypertension
When baroreceptors acclimate to high bp
What happens to increase MAP
-turns of SNS
-decrease HR
-decrease contractility
-dilate aerials= decrease resistance
-dilates veins for quick venous returns
Chemoreceptors
-see if there is low O2, low Ph, or to much CO2
-Increases HR and release of CO2
-Increases vasoconstriction
-Increases resistance= greater MAP
2 Types of short Term Hormone Control of BP

2.Endocrine
What do short term paracrine hormone do?
-match blood flow to metabolic needs of tissue
What are the short term Endocrine hormones?
1.NE & Epinephrine
2.Angiotension II
3.Antidiretic Hormone
4. Atrial natriuretic peptide
NE & Epinephrine
-increase HR and vasoconstriction= greater CO
-adrenal
Angiotension II
-vasoconstriction= increase BP
-kidneys
Antidiretic Hormone
-Retain H2o= increase Blood vol. And rate
-pituitary
Atrial Natriuretic Peptide
= decrease BP and volume
-heart
Long-term Blood Pressure Control (renal)
-Kidney controls BV
-Directly filters and reabsorbs water
-Indirectly via hormones
What does perfusion do?
-necessary for delivering O2/nutrients
-remove CO2 and waste
Extrinsic Factors that regulate tissue perfusion
-Outside organs
-SNS→constriction→less BF and maintains BP (hormones can effect)
Intrinsic Factors that Regulate Tissue Perfusion
1.Autoregulation
2.metabolic Factors
3.Endothelial Factors
4.Inflamatory Chemicals
5. Myogenic Control
Autoregulation (Intrinsic Factor)
-perfusion matched to tissue requirements
-Local conditions change in arterial resistance (diameter)
Metabolic Intrinsic Factor
-Decrease in O2, increase K, increase H = decrease pH→ vasodilation
Endothelial Intrinsic Factor
2 Things must be in balance:
A. Nitric Oxide
-Powerful vasodilator
B. Endothelians
-vasoconstrictor
Inflammatory Chemicals (intrinsic Factor)
Chemicals cause Vasodilation of BV’s
Myogenic Controls (intrinsic Factor)
-SM stretched= contracts= less BF
-SM relaxed= increase BF= maintain BF when dialated
How does exercise change blood flow to specific tissues?
-SKM= arterioles dilate (metabolic)
-Less BP → extrinsic SNS increases→ BV constriction → Decrease BV to guts/ kidneys
-Organs:
