Q

Heart rate:

A

number of beats per minute

27
Q

Stroke volume:

A

amount of blood pumped in a single contraction

28
Q

Arteries:

A

29
Q

Capillary walls are ____ thick to allow easy ____ with nearby cells.

A

one-layer, exchange

30
Q

Veins: (2)

A
  • Do not have thick elastic layer BUT
  • they have valves
31
Q

Blood Structure: (3)

A
  • average human has 4-6 liters of blood
  • 45% of blood is cellular (RBC, WBS, and platlets)
  • 55% of blood is plasma (90% water, 10% dissolved molecules)
32
Q

Erythrocytes: (4)

A
  • Biconcave disk structure for max Surface A:V ratio for max gas exchange
  • most numerous in body
  • formed in bone marrow
  • circulate 3-4 months before being removed by liver
33
Q

Sickle Cell Disease:

A
  • Caused by abnormal hemoglobin proteins that form aggregates.
  • These can deform the RBC into a sickle shape
  • Sickle cells can rupture or block blood vessels
34
Q

Capillaries: (2)

A
  • site of all exchange between blood and body cells
  • Material is exchanged by either diffusion, secretion, or filtration
35
Q

Diffusion: (2)

A
  • across endothelial cell
  • O2, CO2, lipid soluble hormones
36
Q

Secretion:

A
  • vesicles in endothelial cells can pick up materials by endocytosis on one side of the cell
  • they move it across the cell
  • and expel materials by exocytosis on the other side
37
Q

Filtration:

A
  • clefts between adjacent endothelial cells will allow water and small particles through
  • not proteins though
38
Q

Blood-brain barrier:

A
  • in the brain, gaps are small, meaning little filtration
39
Q

Filtration depends on balance of ____ ______ and ______ ______.

A

blood pressure, osmotic pressure

40
Q

Blood pressure forced water ____ of capillaries, osmotic pressure forces water ____ capillaries.

A

out, into

41
Q

Lymphatic system: (3)

A
  • open circulatory system
  • moves lymph back to bloodstream
  • no pressure for flow, uses muscle action and valves
  • lymph goes back to ducts that enter the venous system near the heart
42
Q

When ________ fluid pressure is high due to ____ ____ from capillaries, it flows to the ________ ______.

A

interstitial, fluid lost, lymphatic system

43
Q

Lymph:

A
  • travels in ducts to nodes where macrophages engulf dead cells and bacteria
  • lymph reenters the circulatory system through the thoracic duct and the right lymphatic duct (fuse with veins in the shoulder)
44
