Question 1: What nerves maintain the resting heart rate?
Answer:
parasympathetic vagus nerves
Question 2: What are the 2nd most permeable capillaries?
Answer:
fenestrated capillaries Question 3: What is a homeostatic imbalance of veins that causes them to become tortuous and dilated because of leaky valves?
Answer:
Varicose veins
Question 4: When do arteries not carry oxygenated blood?
Answer:
pulmonary circulation, umbilical vessels of fetus
Question 5: What is the process of forcing fluids thru the capillary walls via capillary hydrostatic pressure?
Answer:
filtration
Question 6: How are larger molecules transported through capillary walls?
Answer:
actively transported via pinocytotic vesicles or caveolae
Question 7: Name the three layers found in arteries and veins
Answer:
tunica intima, tunica media and tunica externa
Question 8: Hormones involved in maintaining BP
Answer:
Epinephrine and norepinephrine
Question 9: How does aldosterone affect blood pressure?
Answer:
enhances renal reabsorption of sodium and prods posterior pitutiary to release ADH, which promotes more water reabsorption, causing both blood volume and blood pressure to rise Question 10: What is the most common form of circulatory shock, resulting from large scale loss of blood, as in hemorrhage, severe vomiting or diarrhea or extensive burns?
Answer:
hypovolemic shock Question 11: Receptors located in the carotid sinus, aortic arch, and large arteries of the neck?
Answer:
Chemoreceptors
Question 12: What mechanisms are a long term control of blood pressure?
Answer:
renal mechanisms
Question 13: Hormones that cause generalized vasoconstriction and increased cardiac output?
Answer:
Epinephrine and Norepinephrine
Question 14: List some intrinsic mechanisms of autoregulation of blood flow
Answer:
(metabolic)amounts of pH, O2, CO2, prostagladins, adenosine, nitric oxide, endothelins and (myogenic) stretch Question 15: With age, increased capillary membrane permeability, there's increased:
Answer:
Edema formation
Question 16: What are several factors that contribute to varicose veins?
Answer:
heredity; prolonged standing in one position, obesity, pregnancy; elevated venous pressure
Question 17: What can happen in cases of prolonged hypertension?
Answer:
heart failure, vascular disease, renal failure, and stroke
Question 18: What is usually in charge of heart rate?
Answer:
cardioinhibitory center in the medulla
Question 19: Cardiac output (CO) is equal to Stroke volume times what?
Answer:
heart rate Question 20: A local increase in histamine would not result in the dilation of the feeder arterioles and opening of the precapillary sphincters in systemic capillary beds.
Answer:
False
Question 21: What is considered chronic hypertension?
Answer:
140/90 or higher Question 22: When body temp. decreases less blood flows to skin thereby:
Answer:
Diverting warm blood to core of body
Question 23: Name the three types of arteries
Answer:
Elastic, muscular and arterioles Question 24: Name some characteristics of veins:
Answer:
Thiner walls and larger lumens than arteries, have thin tunica media but thick tunica externa consisting of collagen fibers, have valves

Answer:
False Question 26: What is the force opposing a hydrostatic pressure, created by the presence in a fluid of large nondiffusible molecules such as plasma proteins, called?
Answer:
colloid osmotic pressure
Question 27: items that cause vasodialation
Answer:
Decrease pH or O2, increase CO2, K, prostoglandins, adenosine, nitric oxide, ANP, beta receptors of epinephrine and norepinephrine
Question 28: What causes vasodilation of vessels of skin?
Answer:
Temperature elevation
