final review (21-23) Flashcards
=3 layers: thick muscular to elastic tunica media
arteries
smallest blood vessels; lacking tunica media and tunica externa; beds arise from single metarteriole
capillaries
__=Endothelial cell membranes form continuous tube
__=Have fenestrations or pores
__=Wider and more winding
Unusually large fenestrations
continuous
;fenestrated
;sinusoids
[types of capillaries]
thin walls, same 3 layers as arteries; valves fold on tunica interna forming cusps
veins
union of 2 or more arteries supplying the same body region
anastomoses
- Small quantity of material
- Substances in blood plasma become enclosed within pinocytotic vessicles that enter endothelial cells by endocytosis and leave by exocytosis
- Important mainly for large, lipid-insoluble molecules that cannot cross capillary walls any other way
transcytosis
=(BHP+IFOP) - (BCOP+IFHP)
net filtration pressure (NFP)
blood hydrostatic pressure(BHP) and interstitial fluid osmotic pressure (IFOP) promotes _____
filtration (capillaries to ICF)”
blood colloid osmotic pressure (BCOP)and interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure (IFHP) promotes ___
reabsorption (ICF to capillaries)
increased cardiac output and systemic vascular resistance increases ___ ___
blood pressure
cardiovascular center located in __ ___; helping regulate heart rate/stroke volume and controls neural, hormonal, and local negative feedback systems that regulate BP and blood flow to tissues
medulla oblongata
monitor pressure changes and stretch in blood vessel walls (BP)
baroreceptors
monitor movements of joints and muscle to provide input during physical activity
proprioceptors
monitor concentration of various chemicals in the blood (blood acidity)
chemoreceptors
hormones that regulate blood pressure are :
help regulate by altering CO, changing systemic vascular resistance, and adjustie total blood volume
renin angiotensin aldosterone; epinephrine and norepinephrine; ADH, atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)
Raises BP by vasoconstriction and secretion of aldosterone (increases water reabsorption in kidneys to raise blood volume and pressure
renin angiotensin aldosterone
-released by adrenal medulla in response to sympathetic stimulation and increases cardiac output by increasing rate and force of heart contractions
epinephrine/norepinephrine
produced by hypothalamus, released by posterior pituitary; responds to dehydration or decreased blood volume ; causing vasoconstriction which increases BP
ADH/vasopressin
released by cells of atria
lowers BP by vasodilation and promoting loss of salt and water in urine reducing blood volume
ANP atrial natriuretic peptide
less than 120 mmHg systolic and less than 80 mmHg diastolic as normal pressure of adult male using ____
sphygomomanmeter
- carotid and aortic reflexes increase CO and peripheral vasoconstriction
- sympathetic nervous sys elevated bp
- E and NE increase cardiac output and ADH enhances vasoconstriction
hemorrhaging:short term
- decline in capillary BP recalls fluids from interstitial spaces
- aldosterone&ADH promotes fluid retention
- increased thirst promotes water absorption across the digestive tract
- erythropoietin increases blood volume and improves Oxy delivery
hemmorrhaging:long term
- contains substance absorbed by the stomach&intestines
- delivers these compounds to liver for …
storage, metabolic conversion, excretion
blood flow to placenta supplied via umbilical arteries and vein drains form placenta to ductus venosus collecting blood ; empties into inferior vena cava
fetal circulation
no specific recognition of invaders, no memory component and 1st/2nd lines of defense
innate or nonspecific immunity
specific recognition of invaders with a memory component
adaptive or specific immunity
outer cortex has large# of Tcells, dendritic cells,epithelial cells, macrophages/ more mature T cells migrate to inner medulla
