Which of the following would INCREASE blood pressure? DECREASED: 1) blood volume 2) blood vessel radius 3) heart rate 4) stroke volume

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 blood vessels responsible for variably distributing cardiac output among organs in the body are: a. Veins b. Arteries c. Capillaries  d. Arterioles

Which of the following would promote the filtration of fluid out of a capillary and into the interstitial fluid? Group of answer choices An increase in hydrostatic pressure in the interstitial fluid An increase in both hydrostatic pressure in the interstitial fluid and colloid osmotic pressure if the blood plasma An increase in colloid osmotic pressure if the blood plasma An increase in hydrostatic pressure in the capillary

During the first day of your clinical internship in the emergency room of the local hospital, you observe two individuals succumb in separate incidences due to gun shot wounds. in both cases, there is a significant amount of blood loss by each victim. Based on what you have learned regarding the cardiovascular system, explain what might be happening in these individuals as a result of their significant blood loss. Ignore damage to internal organs that most likely occurred and focus on the blood loss. Respond to a classmate's post by explaining why you agree or disagree with the responses they propose and build on their response where possible

An increase in mean blood pressure may be due to? a) an increase in heart rate b) an increase in peripheral resistance c) an increase in stroke volume

A 55-year-old woman, Rebecca Dauhey, has varicose veins prominently seen on both legs, on both the upper and lower portions. She lives in a geographic area that is hot all year round. Rebecca loves to swim and wear shorts but is terribly embarrassed by her "ugly veins." Her work is sedentary, and she dislikes exercising due to the heat. 1.If Rebecca is a client in your clinic, what information might you have for her? 2.What measures can Rebecca take now to prevent her varicose veins from getting worse? 3.Are there any alternative therapies you can suggest? ***INCLUDE CITATIONS IN MLA 9TH EDITION PERDUE OWL ***

What are 3 internal factors that can alter a person’s blood pressure? Then, select one and describe the physiology behind it.

Low blood pressure is detected by sensory receptors called baroreceptors. Where in the body do we find baroreceptors? brachial artery, aortic arc, or inferior vena cava.

We typically hear about how deadly hypertension is, but the body has much more mechanisms for raising blood pressure than for lowering it. Why is this the case?
