Systemic blood pressure is defined as the ratio of two pressures—systolic and diastolic—both expressed in millimeters of mercury. Normal blood pressure is about 120mm/80mm which is usually just stated as 120/80. What would normal systemic blood pressure be if, instead of millimeters of mercury, we expressed pressure in each of the following units, but continued to use the same ratio format? Part A) atmosheres = a)120/ 80 b) 2.32/ 1.54 c) 0.158/ 0.105 d) 1.60x10^4/ 1.06x10^4 Part B) torr = a) 120/ 80 b) 2.32/ 1.54 c) 0.158/ 0.105 d) 1.60x10^4/ 1.06x10^4 Part C) Pa = a)120/ 80 b) 2.32/ 1.54 c) 0.158/ 0.105 d) 1.60x10^4/ 1.06x10^4 Part D) N/ m^2 = a)120/ 80 b) 2.32/ 1.54 c) 0.158/ 0.105 d) 1.60x10^4/ 1.06x10^4 Part E) psi = a)120/ 80 b) 2.32/ 1.54 c) 0.158/ 0.105 d) 1.60x10^4/ 1.06x10^4

Hemodynamics are the dynamics of blood flow. Can the Bernoulli's equation be used to study hemodynamics in the cardiovascular system? Why or why not? You should discuss all four of the assumptions of Bernoulli's equation when answering this question. Jugular vein (also subclavian vein from arms) Pulmonary artery Superior vena cava Interior vena cava Hepatic vein Liver Hepatic portal vein Renal vein Iliac vein CO₂ CO₂ Head and arms Lungs Heart Kidneys Trunk and legs Carotid artery (also subclavian artery to arms) Pulmonary vein Aorta Hepatic artery Mesenteric arteries Digestive tract Renal artery Iliac artery
The below graph shows changes in several cardiovascular parameters as the result of increased intensity of exercise in a population of untrained individuals. What commonly measured cardiovascular parameters might the curves labeled A, B, and C represent? What are the corresponding units for the y-axis of each measure? For your reference, the two labeled curves represent the Pulmonary Capillary Wedge Pressure (PCWP) and the Central Venous Pressure (CVP), both of which are measured in mmHg.
1. Calculate the MAP of the following patient: 1. BP 95/65 2. MAP= Using the BP, calculate the pulse pressure in order to find the MAP. Only provide a numerical answer for the MAP. Example: 90
As blood flows from the aorta to the arteries, arterioles, and capillaries and through the venous circulation, it encounters various resistances to flow, which results in pressure drops. Using the table, calculate the resistance for an artery and a capillary. (Note: The viscosity of the blood is 3.5 × 10-3 Pa-s.)
