Smooth muscle constrict or dilate to alter blood flow
All named in lab except elastic Arteries
Muscular arteries
Have the greatest control of blood flow to a tissue
Arterioles

Hydrostatic pressure
Pushing pressure caused by the albumins
Osmotic pressure
Any force that opposes movement
Resistance
Type A blood
Will have A surface antigens
With Anti B antibodies
Type B
Will have B surface antigens
With Anti A antibodies
Type AB
Will have both A or B surface antigens
Will have neither Anti A or B antibodies
Type O
Neither A and B antigens
But will have both anti A and B antibodies
