Q

diffusion

A

movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to a lower concentration. doesnt require energy

17
Q

what is responsible for converting glucose and other nutrients into energy within a cell?

A

mitochondria

18
Q

what does tone do for the body

A

helps regulate blood pressure and maintain perfusion

19
Q

what is tone?

A

The amount of constriction in a blood vessel

20
Q

what happens when a blood vessel suffers a “loss of tone”

A

A decrease in blood pressure and perfusion

21
Q

shock

A

inability of the body to circulate blood the the body’s tissue and cells. Carbon dioxide will not be removed from the tissues

22
Q

Ventialtion/ perfusion mismatch

A

They are never exactly matched. Both happen without obstruction. When altered mismatch occurs

23
Q

when a capillary allows fluids to leave through its walls its said to be..

A

permeable

24
Q

what is the difference between respiration and ventilation

A

Ventilation- process of moving air in and out of lungs

Respiration- exchange of gasses between alveoli, RBCs and cells of the body

25
Q

Preload

A

The amount of blood filling the ventricle of the heart prior to contraction

26
Q

delayed capillary refill time is the sign of..

A

compensated shock

27
Q

distributive shock what is lost

A

blood vessel tone

28
Q

the product of tidal volume and ventilation rate is

A

minute volume

29
Q

the effect of oxygen in the body

A

allows continuation of aerobic metabolism

30

A

decreased minute volume

31
Q

afterload

A

pressure the heart has to pump to force blood out into the system
