Question
Chapter 30.5, Problem 3MC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
How the regulation of the blood pressure is an example of negative feedback mechanism.
Concept introduction:
Blood pressure is known as the force exerted by the blood on the walls of the blood vessels, and it is determined in terms of the systolic and diastolic pressure. The systolic pressure of the blood is reflected by the powerful contraction of the ventricles and the relaxation of the ventricles reflects the diastolic pressure.
