Blood Vessles Flashcards
Fully functional organs
Blood vessels
Take blood away from heart
Arterioles
Branch into smaller
Arterioles
Directly service tissues
Capillary beds
Collect blood
Venues
Pool bloood and draw it back to heart
Veins
Away from heart
Artery
Back to the heart
Veins
Space inside any tube in anatomy
Lumen
Form a tight waterproofish layers to stop spilllage of plasma or hemocytes
Endothelial cells
Shrink cells
Vasoconstriction
Relax cells
Vasodilation
Controlled by neves in autonomic NS and some cells signal related to inflammation and clotting
Tunica media
Collagen fibers have maintain rigidity
Tunica externa
Elastic fibers provide some capacity to stretch
Tunica externa
Houses vessels on vessels- vasa Vasorum
Tunica externa
All tissues needs serviced by blood vessels and at higher distance simple diffusion is not enough
Tunica externa
Include the aorta and it’s major branches
Elastic arteries
Thicker walls with elastin fibers spread thoghout all layers
Elastic arteries
Smooth muscle is not involved in Vasoconstriction
Elastic arteries
All tunica present arterioles but lose externa and all but single layers of media is the smallest
Arterioles
Small network of vessels
Cappillaries
There are differ degrees of capillary which vary in the degree of permeability
Cappillaries
The normal capillary wrapped in Basememt membrane with a thin ti
Cappillaries continuous
Mostly in areas where a lot of small particles move into or out of blood
Cappillaries fenestrated
Large gaps in both endothelial cells and a basement membrane
Cappillaries sinusoid
Capillaries exist as exchange vessels dnelevey gases nd other nutrients
Cappillaries
All 3 layers of tunica begin to reappear
Venules
Thinner tunica and larger lumens
Veins
One way valves
Veins
Increase venous pressure
Veins
caused by squeezes from expanding nearby skeletal muscles lying next to veins can help to draw blood back to heart
Muscular pumps
Caused by expansion and contraction of the lungs is mostly to help with breathing but also helps increase thoracic pressure
Respiratory pump
Blood is much more Constant in venous system
Veins
Alternate pathways to get to same spot
Anatomsmoses
Protects against a clot blocking all blood flow to an area
Anastomoses
Far more influential than Frasher blood flow
Resistance
Have lots of collagen and gives lots of stretch
Arterial pressure
Occurs as aortic valves close
Dicrotic Mitch
Weighted towards diastolic pressure
Arterial pressure
Detects stretch in a vessel and can relay information about blood pressure to the brain
Barorecetors
Detect change in ph oxygen content, and co2 content in blood also content the same cic and vasomktor complex
Chemoreceptors
Size of blood vessels
Volume of blood fluid
Change pressure
Kinsey regulation
Way to mane blood pressure
More flirtation is produced
Kidney regulation
Block the activation of angiotensin 2 receptors throughout the body
SARTANS- heart meds
Build up plaque
Atherosclerosis
Blood tissue and oxygen starved and then tissue dies
Artherosclerosis
Hugh pressure damages the heart
Huerptensuin
Work harder some amount of blood pumped
Hypertension
Pumps less blood
Smaller ventricles
Greater risk of oxygen starvation
Hypertension
Greater risk of oxygen starvation
Hypertension
No clear cause- idiopathic
Hypertension
Swelling of tissue
Edema
Lack of blood proteins
Hypoproteinemia
Increased blood pressure
Hypertension
