- Blood is pushed out of the heart through a large vessel, called the aorta. The aorta then divides into smaller and smaller blood vessels, eventually reaching vessels called capillaries. Capillaries are so small that oxygen and nutrients can diffuse across the vessel walls and into the tissues of the body, with CO2 and waste diffusing back into the blood. Let's say that the cross-sectional area of the aorta is 1 cm2 = 100 mm2. The blood pumps through the aorta at 100 mm/s but only through the capillaries at 1 mm/s. If each capillary has a cross-sectional area of 20 mm2, how many capillaries must there be in the body? Note: these numbers are not physiologically correct, but were chosen to make the math easier. The blood velocity through the aorta is closer to 300 mm/s. The capillaries have a total cross-sectional area of ~600,000 mm2 (6000 cm2), with a blood flow rate closer to 0.2 mm/s.arrow_forwardTrace the flow of blood in a linear sequence beginning at the lungs and proceeding to the left heart and back to the lungs: Lungs to Left heart and back to the lungs Group of answer choices pulmonary artery, left atria, left ventricle, aorta, arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venuloes, veins, vena cava, right atria/ventricle, pulmonary vein pulmonary vein, left atria, left ventricle, aorta, arterioles, arteries, capillaries, venuoles, veins, vena cava, right atria/ventricle, pulmonary artery pulmonary artery, left atria, left ventricle, aorta, arteries, arterioles, capillaries, veins, venuoles, vena cava, right atria/ventricle, pulmonary vein pulmonary vein, left atria, left ventricle, aorta, arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venuloes, veins, vena cava, right atria/ventricle, pulmonary arteryarrow_forwardIn the table below, discuss the structure and functions of arteries, veins and capillaries: Structure Function Valves Structure and size of walls Artery Y / N Capillary Y / N Vein Y / N (Around 150 words)arrow_forward

- You are studying bulk flow in a tissue. You have measured the following: Blood pressure at the arterial end of the capillary – 30mmHg Osmotic pressure at the arterial end of the capillary – 20 mmHg partial pressure of oxygen at the arterial end of the capillary – 42 mmHg; partial pressure of CO2 – 40mmHg partial pressure of O2 at the venous end – 42 mmHg; partial pressure of CO2 – 46mmHg Blood pressure at the venous end of the capillary – 14mmHg Osmotic pressure at the venous end of the capillary – 20 mmHg Pick all that would apply A)the 10 mm Hg pressure difference will drive blood plasma into the interstitial fluid B)the 6 mm Hg pressure difference will drive blood plasma into the interstitial fluid C)the hydrostatic pressure declines from the arterial side to the venous side because oxygen is lost.
