16
Q

Function of pre-capillary sphincters

A

Control fluid exchange between the capillary and the body tissue takes place at the capillary bed
larger cells cannot pass through capillaries and bypass the capillary bed

17
Q

Three layers of vein

A

Tunica intima- endothelial cells
tunica media- elastic fibres in smooth muscle cells
tunica externa- elastic fibrous capsule

18
Q

Mains files are made of

A

Fibroelastic cartilaginous

19
Q

venules received blood from

A

Arterioles and capillaries

20
Q

Largest vein in body

A

Vena cava

21
Q

Four types of veins

A

pulmonary vein-carry oxygenated blood to the left atrium of the heart from the lungs
systemic-carry oxygen depleted blood from the body to the right atrium of the hearth
superficial- located close to the skin surface and easily visualised
deep-located much deeper in the body and surrounded by the dysuria and organs

22
Q

Compare veins and arteries

A

Arteries have two elastic membranes
arteries have smaller lumen
arterial walls are much thicker

23
Q

Artery- how structure fits function

A

Strength and elasticity needed to withstand the pulsing of the blood, prevent bursting and maintain pressure wave
helps to maintain high blood pressure, preventing blood flow backwards

24
Q

Capillaries- how structure fits function

A

No need for strong walls as most of the blood pressure has been lost
thin walls and narrow limbering blood into close contact with the body tissue amount effusion of the material across capillary and supporting tissues
white blood cells can squeeze between cells of the wall

25
Q

veins-how structure fits function

A

no need for strong wall, most of blood pressure has been lost
wide lumen offers less resistance to blood flow

26
Q

collateral blood vessels

A

provide alternative path for artrial bloodflow
