Regulating BF

Central Mechanisms

QuestionAnswer
What is the function of the CVC and where is it located? exerts Autonomic control over the Heart/Aterioles - Medulla
How does the CVC exert Aunomic control? Inhibitory, Excitatory input from Peripheral Receptors
What is the function of Pressreceptors/Baroreceptors? INHIBIT the CVC - sensitive to HIGH BP --> DECREASE BF
Where are Pressreceptors/Baroreceptors located? Aortic Arch, Carotid bodies
name 2 Excitatory Peripheral Receptors. Chemoreceptors, Mechanoreceptors
What is the function of Chemoreceptors? EXCITE the CVC - sensitive to LOW O2 in the blood --> INCREASE BP
What is the function of Mechanoreceptors? EXCITE the CVC - sensitive to Movement --> INCREASE BP
Where are Mechanoreceptors located? Joints, Skeletal Muscles
What would be the Inhibitory input response to decreased Sympathetic? Vasodilation (alpha-adrenergeric) --> decrease PR --> decrease MAP = decrease BF
What would be the Inhibitory input response to increased Parasympathetic? decrease HR --> decrease MAP = decrease BF
What would be the Excitatory input response to increased Sympathetic? Vasoconstriction (alpha-adrenergic) some Vasodilation (ß2-adrenergic) --> increase PR --> increase MAP = increase BF
What would be the Excitatory input response to decreased Parasympathetic? increase HR --> increase MAP = increase BF

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
