A

neurotramistters

39
Q

explain how vVMC affects vessel function at the local level

A

Sympathetic nerve endings release almost exclusively norepinephrine (alpha adrenergic receptors).
=lead to vasocontriction nad decrease bloof fvessel diamter

40
Q

explain how vVMC affects vessel function at the systemic level

A

Adrenal medulla secretes epinephrine and norepinephrine which constricts blood vessels via alpha adrenergic receptors.
=slow

41
Q

true or false the local and systemic levels of VMC affect on vessel formation work in parallel

A

true

42
Q

how can epinephrine dialte vessels

skeletal msucle

44

beta adrenergic receptors

46
Q

. In (kidneys, gut, spleen, skin), epinephrine leads to vasoconstriction through what recepots

A

alpha adrenergic receptors.

47
Q

true or false: Vasoconstrictor fibers are distributed throughout only cerntain segments of the circulation but with a higher concentration in certain tissues.

A

false, all over

48
Q

what reflex is imporant in short term regulation of arterial pressure

A

arterial baroreceptor relgex

49
Q

how is the arterial bararecptor initiated

A

Reflex is initiated by stretch receptors called baroreceptors or pressoreceptors.

50
Q

explain the arterial barareceptor reflex

A

A rise in pressure stretches baroreceptors and causes them to transmit signals to the VMC and feedback signals are sent via the autonomic nervous system to the circulation to reduce arterial pressure back to normal.

51
Q

baroreceprots at the carotid sinus level protect what

A

perfusion into the brain

52
Q

baroreceprots at the aortic level protect what

A

protect the cirulation and heart

53
Q

explain the relationship between BP and the arteiral baraceptors relfext

A

if there is an icnrease in BP
the arterial baroreceprors will be stretched and will increase their firing frequency to the VMC

VMC sends signals into crilation
VMC will vasodilate vessels to refuce pressure and reduce heart controactility and heart rate

54
Q

Carotid sinus baroreceptors respond to pressures between

A

60 and 180 mmHg.

55
Q

Baroreceptors respond to changes BLANK

A

arterial pressuer

56
Q

where is the barorecptove reflex more sensity

A

pressure of 100 mmHG

57
Q

As pressure increases the number of impulses from carotid sinus this results in:

A

1) inhibition of the vasoconstrictor

2) activation of the vagal center (brings BP beacuse to normal and firinng freq iqll dexreaseO

58
Q

give an example of the response of the barareceptors to pressure (like protecting brain)

A

1) constrict common carotids
2) decreae pressure at the carotid sinuses
3) arterial pressure will increase (increase firing frew to VMC, vasoconstriction, increase HR and increase contract)

59
Q

explain why arterial pressure must increase if the cartoid get clamped

A

there is a blockage therefore the heart must inrease ipressure to incrase gradient and overcome this icnreases resitance

60
Q

what is the function of the baroreceptor in term sof posteure

A

Maintains relatively constant pressure despite changes in body posture.

61
Q

explain how the barorecptors react when going from supine to standing

A

1) supine to stranding
2) decreae central blood volume (derase venous return because blood will pool in legs)
3) decrase cardiac output
4) decrease arterial pressure
5) decreae is sensed by barorepceotrs (firing freq will decrease)
6) this wil lstim the VMC which will dilate and do symptathic nervous actitivty to icrease BP

62
Q

true or false: Baroreceptors ineffective if altered blood pressure sustained

A

Baroreceptors ineffective if altered blood pressure sustained becayse fhet dapt

63
Q

what is the main function of the barorecptors.

A

Opposes either increases or decreases in arterial pressure thereby reducing daily variations in arterial pressure.

64
Q

true or false: baroreceptors are imporatnt in long term control of arterial prssure

A

false They are unimportant in long term control of arterial pressure because the baroreceptors adapt.

65
Q

true or false: chemoreceptor is a short term mechanism

A

true

66
Q

true or false: chemoreceptors are the exact same as baros

A

false, they are similarbut they repsond to chemical chagnes

67
Q

how can chemoreceptor reflexes incrase BP

A

Signaling cardioacceleratory center  increase CO

Signaling vasomotor center  increase vasoconstriction

68
Q

give an example of chemoreceptor reflex

A

if there is a change inn the chemicals in the blood (like an icnrase in waste products), the body will icnreas BP to flush away these waste products

69
Q

Chemoreceptors are chemosensitive cells sensitive to…

A

lack of O2, excess of CO2 or H+.

70
Q

where are chemoreceptors located

A

Chemoreceptors are located in carotid bodies near the carotid bifurcation and on the arch of the aorta.

71
Q

Activation of chemosensitive receptors results in what

A

excitation of the vasomotor center. (increase CO, icnrease HR, increae contractility, increase vasoconstriction)

72
Q

Chemoreceptors are not stimulated until what

A

pressure falls below 80 mmHg.

73
Q

know the diagram/grafic on page 20

A
74
Q

what is the extreme chemioreceptor

A

CNS ischemic response

75
Q

when is CNS ishcmeic repsonse is acvitated in resposne to what

A

cerebral ischemia (lack of o2 in brain)

76
Q

explain the CNS ishmic response

A

Reduced cerebral blood flow causes CO2 buildup which stimulates vasomotor center thereby increasing arterial pressure.

77
Q

true or falsep CNS Ischemic response is one of the most powerful activators of the sympathetic vasoconstrictor system.

A

true

78
Q

explain the connection between cerebral ishmia and arterial pressure

A

if there is cerebral ischemia (increase co2)

the vasomotor will cause increase in sympathic avicty and then the arterial pressure will icnrase

79
Q

when is the CNS ischemic response initiated

A

If blood flow is decreased to the vasomotor center in the lower brainstem and CO2 accumulates,

80
Q

CNS CNS ischemic response is not activated until pressure falls below

60

81
Q

when does greatest activattiton of CNS iscmic response occur

A

at pressure 15-20

82
Q

A

.

86
Q

what do Low pressure receptors in atria and pulmonary arteries do

A

minimize arterial pressure changes in response to fluctuations in blood volume.

87
Q

increases in blood volume activate what

A

low pressure receptors which in turn lower arterial pressure.

activation of low pressure recprors enhances NA and water extretion by …

A

Decreasing rate of antidiuretic hormone

- Increasing glomerular filtration rate 
- Decreasing Na reabsorption
89
Q

explain the flow of atrial and pulmonary relfexes

A

1) incrase blood volume
2) increase arterial stretch
3) increase atrial natriuretic peptide and decrease renal sympathetic acvity (blood vessels in kidneys will vasodialte)
4) increase sodium and water excretion

90
Q

what is the function of the brainbridge reflex

A

Prevents damming of blood in veins, atria and pulmonary circulation.

91
Q

how does the bainbridge relfx work

A

stretch of the atria sends signal to the VMC via vagul afferents to increase HR and contractility

92
Q

explain the flow of the brainbridge reflex

A

arterial stretch
send signals to VMC via vagal afferents
VMC will icnrease HR and contractility (ejects more blood=no draining and blood passes through heart more rapidly.
