A

A + B
Because blood cells arise from multipotent cells which then are subdivided into myeloid stem cells and lymphoid stem cells, this explains why D is wrong. As for C, leukocytes are granular or agranular so subcategories can fall into both

A

Similarity: chambers of the heart

18
Q

What is the phrase that allows us to remember the function of arteries?

A

Arteries carry blood away from the heart.

19
Q

describe the blood flow throw the heart

A

deoxygenated blood enters the right atrium through the superior/inferior vena cava. Blood passes through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. Blood passes through the pulmonic valve into the pulmonary artery where it gets sent to the lungs. oxygenated blood retunrs through pulmonary veins into left atrium. Blood passes through the mitral valve into left ventricle. Blood passes through aortic valve into aorta

20
Q

The pulmonary system carries _____ away from the heart and into the lungs. The systemic system carries ____ into the heart

A

deoxygenated, oxygenated

21
Q

Explain the pressure we would see in a chart representing the systemic system

A

The systemic system represents blood pressure in the arteries. See that each rise[systolic pressure] is the heart contracting and falling is heart relaxing[diastolic pressure]. However, the pressure never falls to zero.

22
Q

Would you expect arteries or veins to having a higher pressure?

A

arteries because they have thick walls that allow them to withstand the high pressure generated by the heart during systole (contraction). This is known as systolic pressure. Veins are thin.

23
Q

in a pulmonary circuit the pressure is __

A

lower

24
Q

What are the advantages of having a pulmonary system and systemic system?

A

The pulmonary circuit has lower pressure for the exchange pathway, preventing fluid leakage into the lungs.

25
Q

What are the two equations for the transport system in the heart?

A

Flow= ΔP/ R
R= 8Ln/ pi x r^4

26
Q

Keeping these relationships in mind: What
will be the effect on fluid flow of increasing
the radius r by a factor of 2?
A. Flow will decrease by a factor of 4.
B. Flow will decrease by a factor of 8.
C. Flow will increase by a factor of 4.
D. Flow will increase by a factor of 16

A

D. Flow will increase by a factor of 16

27
Q

What is a dramatic effect?

A

changing the diameter of a blood vessel can influence flow,
hint: use both equations

28
Q

What is the difference between systole and diastole?

A

SYSTOLE: the ventricles contract and generate pressure to overcome the afterload.
DIASTOLE: Ventricle relaxing

29
Q

What is the difference between systolic pressure and diastolic pressure?

A

Systolic pressure
-Contraction of ventricles pushes blood into arteries at peak pressure
Diastolic pressure
-Between ventricular contractions, blood pressure in arteries falls to a
minimum pressure

30
Q

cardiac cycle is also called the

A

Systole–diastole sequence

31
Q

How do you read bp?

A

blood pressure reading, systolic pressure is always the top number, while diastolic pressure is the bottom number.
140/90 (-50)

32
Q

how do we measure blood pressure?

A

cuff is pumped until the blood flow of the larger artery is cut off, until the thumping sound disappears.
*Systolic pressure is measured when thumping begins.
*Diastolic pressure is measured when the thumping sound disappears.

33
Q

afterload

A

amount of resistance the heart must overcome to open the aortic semilunar valve and push blood into circulation.

34
Q

Systole related to preload t/f

A

false
systole: afterload
diastole: preload

35
Q

preload

A

left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP), amount of ventricular stretch at the end of diastole.

36
Q

In the cardiac cycle, we can expect the ___ to be consistently low

A

atrial pressure below blood is constantly filling it

37
Q

explains steps in cardiac cycle

A
  1. heart relaxed and atria begin to fill with blood, AV/ SL are closed
  2. Av valves are opened and ventricles begin to fill
  3. atria contracts and ventricles completely fill
  4. ventricles contract, closing AV
  5. ventricles contract fully forcing SL valves open and ejecting blood into arteries.
38
Q

explain how ventricular pressure and aortic pressure would look in the cardiac cycle?

A

Aortic pressure will always be relatively high because there is always blood in it, it will only spike when ventricles begin to contract and close the AV.
Ventricular pressure will always be as low as atrial pressure until it spikes to aortic pressure range once ventricles begin to contract, closing AV.

39
Q

What is stroke volume?

A

is the amount of blood ejected per beat from left ventricle
and measured in ml/beat

40
Q

What is the equation to calculate stroke volume?

A

SV=EDV-ESV
EDV: end diastolic volume: volume of blood in ventricle after filling phase
ESV: end systolic volume: blood left in the ventricle after contraction

41
Q

cardiac output

A

Cardiac output is the amount of blood pumped by the
heart in 1 minute measured in L/min

42
Q

If stroke volume increases, cardiac out put increases T/F

A

If either heart rate or stroke volume increase, or both,
cardiac output increases also

43
Q

How would cardiac output (CO in L/min) be related to
Stroke Volume (which is volume per beat: SV in L) and Heart
Rate (HR in beats per minute)?

A

CO = SV x HR

44
Q

Two things that can effect cardiac output:

A

The amount of blood going out per beat and
The number of beats per minute.
