Q

What 3 nerves output to effectors for the cardiovascular center of the Neural control?

A
  • Vagus nerves
  • cardiac accelerator nerves
  • vasomotor nerves
17
Q

What ns are the vagus nerves a part of?

A

parasympathetic

18
Q

What ns are the cardiac accelerator nerves a part of?

A

sympathetic

19
Q

what ns are the vasomotor nerves a part of?

A

sympathetic

20
Q

Where does the cv center output to?

A

heart and blood vessels

21
Q

What type of nerve impulses output to effectors from the CV center?

A

motor nerve impulses

22
Q

What effect does the vagus nerve have on the heart?

A

decreases heart rate

23
Q

What effect does the cardiac accelerator nerves have on the heart?

A

increases heart rate and contractility

24
Q

What effect does the vasomotor nerves have on the blood vessels?

A

regulates blood vessel diameter -> vasoconstriction

25
Q

How are cardiovascular reflexes produced?

A

By afferent signals of

  1. Baroreceptors
  2. Chemoreceptors
  3. Proprioceptors
26
Q

What are the most important receptors in the cardiovascular regulation?

A

Baroreceptors and chemoreceptors

27
Q

What are the 2 types of baroreceptors?

A

High pressure and low pressure baroreceptors

28
Q

Where are high pressure baroreceptors found?

A

Carotid sinus and aortic arch

29
Q

How do baroreceptors enter the CV center in high pressure?

A

CN IX and X

30
Q

Where are low pressure baroceptors found?

A

Walls of right atria and vena cava

31
Q

What do baroceptors basically do?

A

Baroceptors are stretch receptors that send action potenials to the brain when the arterial wall changes due to pressure

32
Q

Where are chemoreceptors found?

A

carotid sinus and walls of asscending aorta

33
Q

Where do chemoreceptors reflex to?

A

Caroid sinus -> CN IX -> medula

ascending aorta -> CN X -> medula

34
Q

What triggers chermoreceptors?

A

Increased H2, increased CO2 and HYPOXIA

35
Q

What effect do chemoreceptors have on the heart (rate etc)

A

part of sympathetic division

INCREASES HR, SV and vasoconstriction
