Chapter 20 Capillary Beds Flashcards
vessels branching from meta arterial that make up the bulk of the capillary bed
true capillaries
a capillary bed or group of capillaries function together are fed by a?
metarteriole
proximal part of a capillary bed are encircled by scattered?
smooth muscle cells
distal part of the capillary bed, thoroughfare channel has no?
smooth muscle cells
__________ __________ connect to postcapillary venules, draining bed
thoroughfare channel
the proximal end of the thoroughfare channel is called the?
metarteriole
________ __________ make up the bulk of the capillary bed
true capillaries
smooth muscle ring at capillary origin, relaxes to permit blood to flow to True capillaries, contrax causing blood to bypass capillary bed
precapillary sphincter
_______: cycle of Contracting and relaxing of precapillary sphincters, at anytime 1/4 of bodies capillary beds are open
vasomotion
amount of light entering capillaries per unit time per gram of tissue?
( mL/min/gram) perfusion
