Exam 2: Lecture 21 Flashcards
What are in the carotid artery, aorta, and bifurcation off the aorta at the sights to keep arterial pressure at the right values
Pressoreceptors
Is the Baroreceptor system slow or fast
extremly fast
What is located in the walls of the carotid sinus, aortic arch
- relay information about blood pressure to cardiovascular vasomotor centers in the brainsteam
- vasomotor center gives ANS commonds
- type of mechanoceptor
Baroreceptor
What type of receptor is sensitive to pressure, stretch and changes in membrane potential
Baroreceptor
What nerve is used in the carotid sinus baroreceptor to see an increase in cardiac decelerator using the PNS to decrease SA node and decrease contractability on the heart
CN IX - glossopharyngeal nerve
What nerve in the aortic arch baroreceptor see a decrease in cardiac accelerator and vasoconstrication to either cause a increase in the SA node / contractility or an increase in the arterioles and veins
CN X - vagus nerve
What is the result on the heart as blood pressure decreases and streatch decreases to get blood flow back to normal
HR increases
If blood pressure gets too low you will activate the (PNS or SNS) to contstric muscles, constrict blood vessels, etc.
SNS
What helps with regulation of:
- blood pressure / blood volume
- adaptive responses
- chronic diseases
- back up system that changes volumes and contraction/dilation to maintain oxygen demand to all tissues (cardiac output)
RAAS System
- Renin-angiotension-Aldesterone autoregulation system
Is the RAAS system slow or fast
slow!!
- bc its an adaptive response
What system is used in animals with chronic heart failure
RAAS System
What organ releases angiotensinogen
liver
renin is releases from what organ
kidney
What causes angiotensinogen to become angiotension 1
renin
What organ does ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme) release from
lungs
