Textbook Question
Chapter 18, Problem 9CYR
Mark the following statements as true or false. If a statement is false, correct it to make a true statement.
a. The sympathetic nervous system increases blood pressure in the short term by increasing cardiac output and peripheral resistance.
b. A sudden increase or decrease in blood pressure triggers the baroreceptor reflex, which is mediated by the medulla and the autonomic nervous system.
c. Hormones that decrease blood volume and blood pressure include antidiuretic hormone and aldosterone.
d. Angiotensin-II is a chemical that produces profound vasoconstriction.
e. The kidneys control blood pressure directly through adjustment of blood volume.

Aged person's heart can't beat as fast during physical activity or times of stress as it did when you were younger. The number of heart beats per minute (heart rate) at rest does not change significantly with normal aging. b. The most common aging change is increased stiffness of the large arteries, called arteriosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries. c.
