Question
Answer
What are the 3 types of blood vessels   show
🗑
show Carry blood away from the heart to tissues. Delivers to capillary beds for gas, nutrient, and waste exchange. Thick walls that withstand high BP. NO VALVES. (15% of blood volume) (blood flow is slower)  
🗑
Capillaries function, location, type of tissue, what layers does it have   show
🗑
show Carry blood from tissues back to the heart. Thin, non-elastic, walls that can't withstand much pressure, but thicker than arteries. CONTAIN VALVES. (60% of volume at rest)  
🗑
What are the three layers in the vessel walls from deep to superficial   show
🗑
show Deepest layer, includes endothelial simple squamous lining, basement membrane , sparse layer of loose CT. Also has a thick layer on outer margin, internal elastic membrane (only arteries)  
🗑
show Middle layer, sheets of smooth muscle in loose CT.  
🗑
show Outer layer,anchors vessel to adjacent tissues. In large veins and arteries it contains Vasa vasorum (blood supply for large vessels)  
🗑
show Elastic (conducting/large), Muscular (distributing/medium), and Arterioles (small)  
🗑
show Tunica media: many elastic fibers, few muscle cells. Contains Vasa Vasorum. Ex: pulmonary trunk, aorta, common carotid, subclavian, common iliac  
🗑
Vasa Vasorum   show
🗑
Muscular (distributing/medium) arteries   show
🗑
Arterioles   show
🗑
show Continuous, fenestrated, and sinusoid  
🗑
Continuous capillaries   show
🗑
Fenestrated Capillaries   show
🗑
Sinusoid Capillaries   show
🗑
show 1. Venules, 2. Medium, and 3. Large  
🗑
show Smallest veins that carry blood away from capillaries  
🗑
show Thin tunica media (few muscle cells.) Thin tunica externa (horizontal bundles of elastic fibers.) Contains valves. EX: Radial, Ulnar, small/great saphenous  
🗑
Large sized veins   show
🗑
Hepatic portal circulation   show
🗑
BP definition   show
🗑
What is BP measured in   show
🗑
Systolic pressure   show
🗑
show Minimum pressure exerted on blood vessel walls (second # in BP reading)  
🗑
Hemodynamics   show
🗑
show Twisted, dilated, superficial veins. Cause by leaking of valves of veins. Help with blackflow and pooling of blood.  
🗑
What is the most common circulatory route   show
🗑
show Blood flows through 2 consecutive capillary networks before returning to heart -3 total in body - (hypothalamus/anterior pituitary, kidneys, intestine/liver)  
🗑
Why can't we have artery anastomoses all over our body like in the brain/heart   show
🗑
show "Blood Hydrostatic pressure" - Pressure exerted by the pumping of your heart which drives fluid OUT of the capillaries (high on arterial end, low on venous end)  
🗑
show "Blood colloid osmotic pressure" - A form of osmotic pressure exerted by plasma proteins (albumins) that pulls fluids INTO capillaries (same on arterial and venous ends)  
🗑
Where are plasma proteins produced   show
🗑
IFHP   show
🗑
show "Interstitial fluid osmotic pressure " - A form of osmotic pressure in the interstitial fluid that drives the fluid out of the capillaries (but is very low compared to BCOP and BHP)  
🗑
NFP equation   show
🗑
show Filtration  
🗑
What do venous pressures promote in capillary exchange   show
🗑
To calculate the Net Hydrostatic Pressure along the whole capillary what do you do   show
🗑
show Interstitial fluid and plasma proteins are collected by lymphatic capillaries (about 3 liters a day)  
🗑
Diffusion in capillary exchange   show
🗑
Transcytosis in capillary exchange   show
🗑
show Movement of bulk flow in large amounts, move in response to pressure, high -> low, faster than diffusion  
🗑
Consequences of edema   show
🗑
show Faster/veins  
🗑
What is venous return dependent on   show
🗑
show Longer/friction/increases  
🗑
___ miles of vessels for 1 pound of _____   show
🗑
Why do longer vessels produce higher BP   show
🗑
show You will have increase in friction, decrease of flow resulting in increase in BP (dehydration & polycythemia)  
🗑
show The smaller the radius the more friction and resistance. The average velocity of blood flow will also be lower and slower (fluctuations in BP)  
🗑
What controls BP by changing its diameter   show
🗑
What are 3 reasons the blood flow from the aorta to the capillaries decreases   show
🗑
What are 2 reasons the blood flow from the capillaries to the vena cava increases   show
🗑
The skeletal muscle pump process   show
🗑
Thoracic pump   show
🗑
Venous pooling (vascular shock) can cause   show
🗑
show Pro-hormone released by liver which stimulates the release of Renin (kidney enzyme for low BP) and they together activate angiotensin 1  
🗑
show ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme in lungs, which blocks the enzyme lowering BP) converts angiotensin 1 into angiotensin 2  
🗑
show Very potent vasoconstrictor, derives from angiotensin 1  
🗑
show Angiotensin, aldosterone, ADH, Epinephrine & norepinephrine, atrial natiruretic factor  
🗑
show Increase urinary sodium excretion for generalized vasodilation (raise BP)  
🗑
Aldosterone and BP   show
🗑
ADH and BP   show
🗑
