Q

How is blood pressure measured:

A

By listening for korotkoft sounds produced by turbulent flow in arteries as pressure is released from a blood pressure cuff.

21
Q

Resistance is the sum of?

A

all factors that inhibit blood flow.

22
Q

Resistance in blood vessel=

A

heart has to work harder

23
Q

What is capillary exchange?

A

Diffusion (which includes osmosis) and filtration are primary means of exchange.

24
Q

Sympathetic nervous system controls what?

A

blood vessel diameter.

25
2/3 of blood is found where?
In veins
26
What causes vasodilation in skeletal muscle?
Epinephrine
27
The SNS releases _______ & ________.
epinephrine and norepinephrine
28
During flight or flight, arteries are going to _______ and veins are going to ______.
vasodialate, vasoconstrict
29
Where are baroreceptors located?
carotid sinus and aortic arch
30
What are short term regulators of BP?
``` epinephrine and norepinephrine. peripheral chemoreceptors ( down in o2) central chemoreceptors (up in Co2) ```
31
What are long term regulators of BP?
-Renin - angiotensin - aldosterone mechanism
32
Renin is released in kidneys due to _________ and promotes production of ___________ and causes _________ and a rise in ________ and maintain blood volume by __________.
low blood pressure, angiotensin II, vasoconstriction, aldosterone secretion, lowering the production of urine.
33
What is the chemical formula for how the body measures pH?
CO2 + H2O > H3CO3 > H+ +HCO3
34
What is the buffer for blood pH bicarbonate formula?
CO2
35
What is pH?
pH=log1/h+
36
Vasopressin is from the ________, causes a _______ in bp, and a _________ which helps maintain blood volume by decreasing ________________.
pituitary, extreme decrease, vasoconstriction, urine production
37
angiotenisogen > renin> angiotensin I > ACE (lungs) > angiotensin II: what type of maintenance is this?
Long term maintenance the ^ Bp.
38
Name what you can about angiotensin I.
- powerful vasoconstrictor | - release of aldosterone
39
Where does aldosterone come from?
adrenal cortex
40
What is aldosterone responsible for?
sodium retention in the kidneys which cause Na+ reabsorption in the kidneys (water reabsorption), which results in increase BV which leads to increase BP.
41
Renin is from _________ causes the transformation from ________ to ____________. Which releases ______.
kidneys, anigiotenisogen, angiotensin I, ADH
