the construction phase of the cardiac cycle is called

A

systole

31

red blood cell production is regulated by the hormone

A

Erythropoietin

32
Q

the percent fraction of formed elements relative to whole food is the

A

hematocrit

33
Q

the t wave on and ECG training represents

A

ventricular repolarization

34
Q

edema may occur when

A

the plasma concentration of protein is reduced, capillary hydrostatic pressure is elevated, and the capillary endothelium permeability goes up

35

venous valves are responsible for

A

channeling blood toward the heart

36
Q

the sequence in which excitation would move through this system is

A

4,3,2,5,1

37
Q

the most numerous white blood cells in peripheral circulation are the

A

neutrophilis

38

A

veins

40
Q

the main action of antidiuretic hormones is

A

increased water conservation by kidneys

41
Q

A

is a component of the hypothalamus

42
Q

the function of hemoglobin is to

A

carry dissolved blood gases

43
Q

A

release of tissue factor (factor III) b damaged endothelium

44
Q

the process of fibrinolysis

A

dissolves clots

45
