50% of blood goes to the ___ and ___
kidneys
liver
blood flow to the tissues is balanced between the tissues ___ need and total volume the ___ can handle
metabolic
heart
tissues meeting their need and workload of the heart are kept to a ___
minimum
acute control of blood flow:
- takes ___ to a few ___
- effect of ___ and ___ ___ changing their vessel diameter
seconds
minutes
metarterioles
precapillary sphincter
long term control of blood flow:
- takes ___ to ___
- result of an increase or decrease in ___ ___ and the number of ___ ___ supplying these tissues
days
months
physical size
blood vessels
acute control of blood flow:
- increase metabolism –> ___ in blood flow
- decrease [O2] –> __ in blood flow
increase
increase
4 reasons for a decrease in oxygen availability
high altitude
pneumonia
CO
cyanide poisoning
vasodilator theory:
- increase in tissue metabolism or decrease in [O2] –> ___ in the rate of formation of vasodilator substances in the tissues
increase
vasodilator theory
- vasodilator substances effect the ___ and ___ ____
metarterioles
precapillary sphincters
___ is a powerful vasodilator for coronary and skeletal muscle blood flow
adenosine
increase tissue metabolism –> ____ release of vasodilators –> ___ arteriole resistance –> ___ blood flow
increase
decrease
increase
6 vasodilators
adenosine ADP compounds CO2 histamines K+ H+
oxygen lack theory
- oxygen is needed for the smooth muscle in the ___ and ___ ____ to contract
arterioles
precapillary sphincter
if oxygen supply is not adequate, the smooth muscle would relax and naturally ___ –> ___ local blood flow
dilate
increase
Increase tissue metabolism or decrease oxygen to the tissues –> ___ tissue [O2] –> ___ arteriole resistance –> ___ blood flow
decrease
decrease
increase
deficiency of glucose, amino acids of FAs in perfusing blood can cause local ____ –> dont have the nutrients to make ___
vasodilation
ATP
vitamin B substances are needed for oxygen-induced phosphorylation of ___
ATP
ATP is needed for smooth muscles of the ___ and ___ ___ to contract
arterioles
precapillary sphincter
___ ___: increase in blood flow after a temporary blockage
reactive hyperemia
hyperemia occurs because of tissue ___ and a build up of ___ metabolites = ___ arterioles and ___ vascular resistance
hypoxia
vasodilator
dilate
decrease
reactive hyperemia
- when the occlusion is release, flow becomes ____ because of the ___ vascular resistance
elevated
reduced
during hyperemia, tissue becomes ___ and vasodilator metabolites are ____
reoxygenated
excreted (from the tissue)
the longer the period of occlusion, the __ the metabolic stimulus for vasodilation leading to ___ in peak reactive hyperemia and ___ of hyperemia
greater
increases
duration
___ ___: increased flow of blood to a tissue and its associated with increased metabolism
active hyperemia
active hyperemia
- blood flow ___ because of increased oxygen consumption during muscular contractions which stimulates the production of ___ substances which then ___ the blood vessels in skeletal muscles
increase
vasodilator
dilate
examples of active hyperemia
exercise
GI tract
active hyperemia can result in up to a __ fold increase in skeletal muscle blood flow with maximal exercise
20
___: process where tissues adjust blood flow over a wide rage of arterial pressure changes
autoregulation
3 organs autoregulation is mostly seen
kidneys
heart
brain
kidney, heart and brain is essential for life, and through autoregulation the body can ___ blood where its needed
divert
increase in arterial pressure –> ___ blood flow
increase
metabolic theory: suggests that as arterial pressure decreases –> oxygen and nutrient delivery ____ resulting in the release of ___ substances
metabolic theory
decrease
vasodilator
metabolic theory: if arterial pressure is too high –> ___ blood flow –> too much oxygen and nutrients that ____ ___ the vasodilator substances –> ___
increase
wash out
vasoconstriction
myogenic theory - as arterial pressure fall –> arterioles ___ as a result of an intrinsic property that responds to a ___ in blood vessel wall tenstion
vasodilate
decrease
myogenic theory - as a higher arterial pressure stretches the blood vessel wall –> reactive ____ that ___ blood flow nearly back to normal even though the pressure is high
vasoconstrict
reduce
nitric oxide = ____ during stress on the endothelial walls
vasodilator
nitric oxide protects against excessive ____
vasoconstriction
positive feed back loop with hyertension because it causes a damage in the endothelial wall which causes a lack of NO in the vessels –> favoring ___
vasoconstriction
nitroglycerin and other nitrate substances were used to treat ___
angina
___: severe chest pain from ischemia of the heart muscle
angina
___: a powerful vasoconstrictor substance derived from damaged enothelial cells
endothelin
endohelin prevents ___ bleeding because it will ___ blood vessels
excessive
vasoconstrictor
