Describe short term regulation of BP
Adjustment of CO and TPR
total blood volume
Right atria detects the rate of stretch and causes heart to catch up
Bainbridge effect
What causes a non plateau in SV
Increased myocardial contractility
Increased left ventricular diameter and mass
Increased ventricular ejection time v
What muscle gets the most blood flow going from rest to exercise
Skeletal
If there is too much blood flow to one area this _________ will tell the brain to redistribute blood to another area
Pressure reflex
Breaks surface tension for gas to move through
Surfactant
