Module 7 Flashcards
```
Blood Flow to Liver/Kidneys/SK Muscle
think about percentage
Liver and kidneys = 50%
SK Muscle = 15-20%
blood flow redirected from non-active like liver/kidneys to SK muscles
Muscles receive 80-85% during exercise
Poiseuille’s Law
Resistance and radius of vessel towards resistance to flow
relationship between resistance and radius of vessels
Q impact from exercise
5 L/min to 25-30+ L/min
more blood and O2 to working muscles
How much blood can a fully dilated BV hold?
20L of blood (4x more than normal volume)
constriction = decreased blood flow
Exercise effect on arterioles
what 2 factors impact this
- autoregulation (local metabolites act on arterial wall)
- Extrinsic Neural Control (stiffen vein
metabolites detected by arterial, causing dilate or constrict
What happens to body (extrinsic neural control)
think about arterioles and blood flow
SNS stimulation and release of hormoens such as epinephrine or norepinephrine
extrinsic = hormones while autoregulation = metabolites
Functional Sympatholysis
SNS activity still increases to skeletal muscles but action is modulated/inhibited by local metabolites to blunt constriction
