16
Q

Recapillary sphincters

A

In capillaries can regulate blood

17
Q

Types of Capillaries

A

1) continuous 2) fenestrated 3) sinusoid

18
Q

Continuous Capillaries

19
Q

Fenestrated Capillaries

A

Have little holes and Are in the KIDNEYS

20
Q

Sinusoids Capillaries

A

Look like been torn apart (big holes) IN LIVER

21
Q

Venules

A

Small veins connect capillaries to veins 2) Diapedeses (out into tissues)

22
Q

Veins pumped by

A

Skeletal muscle pumps with the help of valves

23
Q

Blood Pressure

A

1) Pressure exerted on arterial walls 2) mmHg(measured) 3) Systolic vs diastolic(relax)

24
Q

Systolic

A

During contraction of heart

25
Diastolic
During relaxing of heart( 2/3 of the time spent)
26
Pulse pressure
Difference Between Systolic and diastolic
27
Hypertension
140 /90 starts
28
Prehypertension
120-140 / 80-90
29
Mean arterial pressure
93 at rest (normal)
30
Liver circulation
AKA hepatic portal circulation; when most nutrients are absorbed in the digestive track they are sent to the liver
31
Portal Triad
1) Hepatic portal vein 2) Hepatic artery 3) Bile Duck
32
Part of liver circulation (4)
1) Portal triad 2) Central Vein 3) Sinusoid(leaky veins) 4) Kupffer cells
33
Kupffer cells
With in sinusoids in liver; Phagocytic
34
Central vein
Drains blood from liver
35
Hepatic portal vein
Blood from GI -> Liver
36
Hepatic artery
O2 blood to liver
