A

The opening of the semilunar valves.

43
Q

Which systemic system has exchanges of gas and plasma?

A

Upper and Lower systemic system

44
Q

Which system has a exchange of gas and no plasma exchange? What do you call this exchange?
2 Marks

A
  • Lungs

- Pulmonary exchange

45
Q

Arteries, Viens or Capillaries?

  • Has a valve
  • More Blood
  • Lower pressure
  • Thin middle and outer layer
46
Q

Arteries, Viens or Capillaries?

  • Less Blood
  • High Pressure
  • Thick Middle and Outer layer
47
Q

Arteries, Viens or Capillaries?

  • Composed of one layer
  • Plasma leaves the pores
  • Tissue fluids come in
A

Capillaries

48
Q

The Inactive steps to the capillary beds

6 Marks

A
  1. Decrease CO2
  2. Arteriole shrink, less blood
  3. Precapillary sphincter contract/closed
  4. Capillary loops less blood, less exchange
  5. Thoroughfare channel dilates
  6. Venule
49
Q

The active steps to the capillary beds

5 Marks

A
  1. More CO2
  2. Arteriole gets bigger
  3. Pre capillary splinter dilate
  4. Capillary loops get more blood and more exchange
  5. Thoroughfare channel less blood
50
Q

When blood enters the capillaries, the pressure is…

51
Q

As the blood gets in the middle of the capillaries the pressure is…

52
Q

When blood leaves the capillaires then the pressure is…

53
Q

The osmatic pressure in the capillaires is…

54
Q

What is the formula to calculate Net blood pressure?

A

Blood pressure - Osmotic pressure = Net Blood pressure

55
Q

If your net blood pressure is to high of to low, what does that mean?
2 Marks

A
  • If it’s too high then that means you are blotted

- If it’s too low then you are hungry

56
Q

List 5 things going on in the capillaries

A
  1. Oxygen moves out of the systemic capillary by diffusion
  2. Plasma, water and nutrients move out of the capillary by blood pressure
  3. Carbon dioxide moves into the capillary by diffusion
  4. Tissue fluid, water and wastes move into the capillary by osmotic pressure
  5. Plasma protein and other large molecules maintain osmotic pressure of blood
57
Q

Explain the parts involved in the anatomy to respond to Blood arterial pressure drop.
7 Marks

A
  1. Carotid and aortic baroreceptors (low pressure receptors) react to the decrease of blood which translates into a nerve impulse
  2. The nerve impulse moves to sensory nerves that relay the information to the brain medulla
  3. The medulla oblongata then generates more nerve impulses
  4. The sympathetic motor nerves conduct more nerve impulses to the heart
  5. Medulla oblongata Parasympathetic cardiovascular center gets less nerve impulses
  6. Parasympathetic motor nerves strengths the nerve impulse to the heart
  7. The heart responds by speeding up the bpm and pressure increase
58
Q 
Explain these 4 anatomy parts
1. Arteriole and artery blood vessels
2. Adrenal gland medulla
3. Epinephrine hormone
4. Blood vessels from adrenal medulla to the heart
4 Marks
A
  1. Stimulated by sympathetic nerves, Arties and arteriole contract
  2. Stimulated by sympathetic nerves, produces Epinephrine hormone
  3. Control blood pressure
  4. Transport more epinephrine hormone
