Test Two Flashcards
function of endocardium
serves as protective inner lining of the chambers and valves
during exercise, why is blood flow towards apex of lung
increase the pressure of the system
thick blood has a higher
hematocrit and higher resistance to flow
how does the heart receive blood supply
coronary arteries
where does capacitance occur
veins and venules
what is the respiratory zone
exchange of gases between air and blood
where is pressure located during diastolic pressure
arteries
expiration at exercise is
active
what does nitric oxide do
promotes smooth muscle relaxation which results in vasodilation and increased blood flow
when standing, why is most of the blood flow at the base of the lung
gravity
how do beta blockers work
compete with epinephrine and norepinephrine for beta andrenergic receptors in heart, reduce HR and contractility which lowers the myocardial oxygen demand
what happens to stroke volume during prolonged exercise
gradual decrease due to dehydration and reduced plasma volume
what are type 2 alveoli
release surfactant 3%
changes in HR and blood pressure during exercise depend on what
type, intensity, and duration of exercise., environmental condition, emotional influence
at rest, was part of the nervous system has more control over the heart
parasympathetic
what is total lung capacity
amount of gas in the lungs after a maximum inspiration
what is the most abundant protein in blood
albumin
what is the conducting zone
conducts air to respiratory zone, humidifies, warms and filters air
reasons for sudden cardiac death during exercise for kids and adolescents
genetic anomalies of coronary arteries, cardiomyopathy, myocarditis
what does cardiac output depend on
training state and gender
what happens to double product during incremental exercise
increases linearly with exercise intensity
what happens during expiration
diaphragm relaxes, ribs pulled downward, volume of lungs decrease, pressure increases and intrapulmonary pressure raised
what is the pressure like in the pulmonary circuit
lower but has same rate of flow as systemic circuit
muscles of inspiration
sternocleidomastoid, scalenes, intercostals,diaphragm
where is the site of gas exchange in the respiratory system
alveoli
beta blockers will lower HR during what type of exercise
submaximal and maximal
function of myocardium
provides muscular contractions that eject blood from the heart chambers
what are the determinants of MAP
cardiac output and total vascular resistance
how does exercise reduce amount of myocardial damage from heart attack
improvements in heart’s antioxidant capacity, improve function of ATP-sensitive potassium channels
what is dyspnea
shortness of breath
what is alveolar surfactant
reduces tension of alveoli to allow you to exchange more gas
what is cardioprotective
regular exercise, reduced incidence of heart attacks, improves survival from heart attack
average aortic blood pressure is also known as
afterload
what is pulmonary respiration
ventilation, exchange of O2 and CO2 in the lungs, happens in aveoli
where does exchange occur
capillaries
why is there a brief delay in the AV node
allow for ventricular filling, allow last little bit of blood to escape atria before ventricles contract
low resting HR is due to
parasympathetic tone
during exercise, is systole or diastole long or short
they both are short, but diastole decreases the most
what is daltons law
the total pressure of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the pressure that each gas would exert independently, relationship between concentration and partial pressure
what is pulse pressure
difference between systolic and diastolic
what is depolarization
electrical event that leads to contraction
when does 2-3DPG occur
only happens at altitude
what is ficks law of diffusion
the rate of gas transfer is proportional to the tissue area, the diffusion coefficient of the gas, and the difference in the partial pressure of the gas on the two sides of the tissue, and inversely related to the thickness
purpose of the respiratory system during exercise
gas exchange between the environment and the body, regulation of acid-base balance during exercise
function of epicardium
serves as lubricative outer covering
how does secondary hypertension occur
result of some other disease process
what is a byproduct of RCB glycolysis
2-3 DPG
what is inotropic
contractility
what is the equation for MAP
DBP+ .33(systolic -diastolic)
what nerves allow sympathetic system to regulate HR
cardiac accelerator nerves
how to increase cardiac output during exercise
increase HR and increase SV
what nerve allows the parasympathetic system to regulate HR
vagus nerve
what is cellular respiration
O2 utilization and CO2 production by the tissue
what is the purpose of the cardiorespiratory system
transport O2 and nutrients to tissue, removal of CO2 wastes from tissues, regulation of body temp
what segment depression suggest myocardial ischemia
S-T segment
what is atherosclerosis
fatty plaque that narrows the coronary arteries and reduces blood flow to myocardium
recover of HR and BP of intermittent exercise depend on
fitness level, temp and humidity, and duration and intensity of exercise
what happens in p wave
atrial depolarization
what are the risk factors of hypertension
left ventricular hypertrophy, atherosclerosis and heart attack, kidney damage, stroke
COPD is associated with
chronic bronchitis and emphysema
what is dead space ventilation
volume of air remaining in conducting airways
redistribution of blood depends on what
metabolic rate/ exercise intensity
what happens going from exercise to rest
decrease in HR, SV and cardiac output but depends on duration and intensity of exercise and training state of subject
why is the pressure less in arterioles than in heart
branches off causing less of a pressure demand by splitting into a bigger volume of area
what happens going from rest to exercise
rapid increase in HR, SV, cardiac output an there is a plateau in submaximal exercise
