A&P 2 EXAM 2

cardiovascular

QuestionAnswer
what are the 3 different types of vessels arteries, veins, capillaries
which way do arteries carry blood away from the heart
are arteries oxygenated or deoxygenated oxygenated except pulmonary artery
which way do veins carry blood bring blood back to heart
are veins oxygenated or deoxygenated deoxygenated except pulmonary vein
what are capillaries where arteries and veins converge allow for rapid diffusion of nutrients and gases
what are the 2 layers of vessels tunica interna, tunica media, tunica externa
which layer of the vessel is in the middle tunica interna
tunica interna get O2 directly from blood
describe the Tunica interna part of vessel sleek & shinny (bowling lane) so RBC dont get stuck
the thickest layer of vessels tunica media
what is the function of the tunica media strengthen vessel, help to not have BP changes
what is the outer layer of the vessel called tunica externa
tunica externa merges with nerves & organs
the tunica externa main job is to anchor the vessel so it doesn't flip flop around
the tunica externa provides passage for small nerves, lymph vessels, smaller BV
when using a cadaver how to arteries respond deforms but springs back to normal
when using a cadaver how to veins respond collapse
when using a cadaver how to nerves respond does not deform
the different arteries conducting arteries, distributing arteries, arterioles, metatarterioles
which is the biggest artery conducting artery
how do conducting arteries react to systole reactions expand during systole and recoil during diastole
conducting arteries help decrease change in what blood pressure
smaller artiers, they distribute to organs, several layers of smooth muscle & named for location distributing arteries
the smallest artery made of smooth muscle and a little elastic tissue arterioles
what link arterioles and capillaries metaarterioles
what is the shortest artery & form pre-capillary sphincter metaarteioles
constriction of metarterioles affect BP how decrease BP
dilation of metarteroles affected BP how increase BP
Where does all O2 exchange take place capillaries
capillaries are scarce in tendons & ligaments
capillaries are absent in cartilage, epithelia, corna, lens
continuous capillaries are what types of cells endothelia cells
continuous capillaries are separated by what intercellular clefts
where are intercellular clefts not present the brain
some continuous capillaries have some what pericytes
what are pericytes elongated tendrils around cap, conractile proteins, help to regulate BP, help vessel growth & repair
what capillaries are filtration pores fenestrated capillaries
fenestrated capillaries are important in what organs kidneys, endocrine glands, small intestine
explain sinusoids capillaries irregular blood filled spaces in liver & bone marrow , easy passages
some sinusoids capillaries have macrophages & specialized cells
explain capillary permeability intercellular cleft (wont allow a lot of fluid out) filtration pores (rapid diffusion) thru endothelia cell plasma membrane
capillary beds are supplied by single metarteriole
how much of the body's capillareis are shut at any given time 3/4
describe a vein thin walled & flaccid, expand easily to accommodate increase BV
when do veins have more blood in them at rest
do veins have low or high pressure low (10 mmHg)
what is the smallest vein, receive blood directly form capillary, & have more porous than capillaries, exchange fluid post capillary venules
what is the only vein that can reabsorb fluid Post capillary venules
describe the tunica media of the medium veins thinner than arteries
describe the tunica interna of the medium veins infolds that form valves dircted toward heart, prevents back flow
describe the wall and muscle of the venous sinuses thin walls, no smooth muscle
what is an example of a venous sinuses dural sinuses of brain
what aren't venous sinuses capable of vasomotion
describe large veins large emptying ducts
what happens when vericous veins forms the valves are not working right
describe the circulation route heart - arteries - capillaries - veins -heart
how many networks of capillaries does blood pass through from the time it leaves the heart to the time it returns 1
what is the big tube called where blood leaves heart aorta
what are the 2 main veins that return blood to heart superior & inferior vena cava
what is a portal system blood flow goes through 2 consecutive capillaries, where it is filtrated before it goes to the venous system
what is an example of where a portal system happens kidneys
what is anastomosis 2 veins or arteries merge without capillaries
where does anastomosis take place fingers, palms, ears
what are the 2 diff types of anastomosis arterial & venous
describe arterial anastomosis 2 arteries merge in areas where activity may compress circulation
describe venous anastomosis 2 veins merge to decrease life threatening blockage
describe the pulmonary circuit pulmonary trunk - pulmonary arteries - lobar artery lead to basket capillary beds - pulmonary vein
what are the 3 cardiac centers proprioceptors, baroreceptors, chemoreceptors
proprioceptors deal with what exercise - need more blood so increase heart rate
what do baroreceptors do decrease heart rate (pressoreceptors)
what do chemoreceptors do identify chemical composition in blood (ph, CO2, O2)
what is vasomotor constricts or dilates veins
vasomotor center in the medulla controlled by what sympathetic
what is baroreflex negative feedback loop for BP changes
in the baroreflex what nerve transmit signals to the brain glossopharyngeal
if BP rises signal rate increases
when signal rate increases what happens inhibits sympathetic cardiac & vasonerurons, reduces sympathetic tone & excites vagus
reducing the sympathetic tone & exciting the vagus does what to HR decreases it
what are the 2 cardiovascular reflexes chemoreflex, meduallary ischemic reflex
define ischemic lack of blood
what does chemoreflex do changes in blood chemistry
what does the meduallary ischemic reflex do response to drop in perfusion of brain
what is the effect of the meduallary ischemic reflex increase HR & contraction force, vasoconstriction
medulla has ____ center cardiac
what are the 2 neural pools of the medulla cardiac center cardioacceleeratory, carioinhibitory
which neural pool signals sympathetic cardiac nerves cardioacceleratory
which neural pool accelerates parasympathetic fibers in vagus carioinhibitory
cardioacceleratory secretes what which does what norepineprhine which increase heart rate
cardioinhibitory secretes what which does what ATCH which opens K channels
what happens if K leaves cells hyperpolarizes and fires less frequently
vagus nerve maintains a background firing rate called vagal tone 60-80 bpm
what is the pace maker of the heart SA
angiotensin II (hormonal control) vasoconstrictor increase BP
aldosterone (hormonal control) salt retaining
ANP (hormonal control) aldosterone antagonist, A excretion in kidneys
ADH (hormonal control) water retention, vasoconstrictor, increase BP
E & NE (hormonal control) occur during fight or flight
blood pressure is determined by what 3 things CO, blood volume, resistance to flow
resistance to flow is determined by blood viscosity, vessel length, vessel radius
