rises to about ___ mmHg during systole (ventricular contraction) and
drops to about ___ mmHg during diastole (ventricular relaxation)

A

35
Q

Q

carotid sinus reflex vs aortic reflex (regulate what, sensory axons to reach CV center)

what kind of reflexes they both fall under and how does it work

A

regulated BP in the brain; glossopharyngeal (IX) nerves
vs
regulates systemic blood pressure vagus (X) nerves

baroreceptor reflexes (pressure)
lower pressure = lower impulse = decrease Psymp/increase symp = higher HR/BP and vice versa

37
Q

Renin–angiotensin–aldosterone (RAA) system regulation of BP

A

BV falls = juxtaglomerular secrete renin = (1) release angiotensin II -> vasoconstriction and (2) release aldosterone -> reabsorb Na = increase BV/BP

37
Q

chemoreceptor reflexes (where, detect and how they fix)

A

close to the baroreceptors of the carotid sinus (carotid bodies)and arch of the aorta (aortic bodies)

detect hypoxia, acidosis, hypercapnia = impulses to CV = increased symp = vasoconstriction and vice versa

37
Q

Cardiovascular center (CV) location

A

medulla oblongata

38
Q

epinephrine and norepinephrine regulation of BP

A

symp stimulation = adrenal medulla release E/NE = increase CO + vasoconstriction to exercising muscles

39
Q

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) regulation of BP

A

produced by hypot, release by ant pit in response to dehydration/ decreased BV = vasoconstriction, increase BV/decrease urine output

40
Q

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) regulation of BP

A

released by atrial cells = vasodilation, promote water/salt loss = decrease BV/BP

41
Q

myogenic response

A

smooth muscle in arteriole walls
exhibits a myogenic response; it contracts more forcefully when it is stretched and relaxes when stretching lessens

42
Q

The walls of blood vessels in the systemic circulation ____ in response
to low O2 = O2 delivery ______, which restores the normal O2 level. By contrast, the walls of blood vessels in the pulmonary circulation ______ in response to low levels of O2. This response ensures that blood mostly bypasses those alveoli (air sacs) in the

better-ventilated areas of the lung.
