Chapter 14, Problem 39RA
Summary Introduction
To review:
The following:
Reasons for weak and rapid pulse of a person in circulatory shock
Treatments to raise the blood pressure.
Introduction:
The circulation of blood throughout the body is done by the circulatory system. It includes two forms of circulation, namely pulmonary circulation that carries deoxygenated blood from the body to the heart, and systemic circulation that is responsible for transporting oxygenated blood from the heart to various body parts.

The long-term regulation of arterial blood pressure is controlled by the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone system (RAA system). Explain how the activation of the RAA system is initiated.
Two common classes of medication to reduce blood pressure work by 1) increasing urine production and 2) reducing stimulation of your SA node. How would these two things decrease blood pressure?
