Arteries have thicker smooth muscle layers to accommodate the changes in pressure from the heart. Arteries carry blood. Arteries have thinner smooth muscle layers and valves and move blood by the action of skeletal muscle. Arteries are thin walled and are used for gas exchange. Arteries have direct connections to capillaries whereas veins do not.arrow_forward
- The aorta, the largest artery in the body (in diameter), carries oxygen-rich blood away from the heart as it begins the systemic blood flow circuit throughout the body. Owing to the fact that the aorta connects directly to the heart, the blood pressure (BP) inside the aorta is very high. As blood travels further from the heart, the BP gradually decreases. For example, the BP in the aorta is higher than in the brachial artery; the BP in the brachial artery is greater than in the antecubital artery; the BP in the antecubital artery is greater than in the radial artery. Based on the understanding that walls of the aorta are subjected to extreme outward pressure, hypothesize the order of specific tissue types one would expect to find in the aorta (from deep to superficial) and explain your rationalearrow_forwardWhich of the following statements best describes systolic blood pressure? Systolic blood pressure depends upon the force of the heart contractions - the stronger the contractions the higher the systolic pressure will be. Systolic blood pressure depends on how tightly the cuff of the sphygmomanometer is tightened. Systolic blood pressure depends upon the resistance of the blood vessels - the greater the resistance to blood flow the higher the systolic pressure will be. Systolic blood pressure depends upon the force and frequency of the heart contractions - the stronger and more frequent the contractions the higher the systolic pressure will be.arrow_forwardA major advantage of a double circulation is thata. blood can be pumped to the upper portions of the body by onecircuit and to the lower portions of the body by the other circuit.b. each circuit can pump blood at a different pressure to optimize thefunction of each.c. the oxygenated blood can mix with the deoxygenated blood beforebeing pumped to the tissues of the body.d. less energy is required to provide nutrients and oxygen to the tissuesof the body.e. All of the above are advantages of a double circulation.arrow_forward

As blood flow moves from the ascending aorta and downward to the abdominal aorta, some of the volume is directed through a branching network. As the blood reaches the pelvic region, there is a bifurcation, as shown in figure, into the left and right common iliac arteries. This bifurcation is symmetrical but the common iliac vessels are not the same diameter. Given that the kinematic viscosity of blood is 4 cSt (centistokes), the abdominal aorta’s diameter is 15 mm, the right common iliac artery’s diameter is 10 mm, and the left common iliac artery’s diameter is 8 mm, determine the mean flow rate through the right common iliac artery if the abdominal aorta’s mean velocity is 30 cm/s and the left common iliac artery’s mean velocity is 40 cm/s.arrow_forwardWhich type of circulation ensures enough oxygenated blood will be supplied to myocardium-the main pumping muscle of the heart?

- 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_forwardWhich of the following sequences shows the correct pathway of blood from body to lungs? Group of answer choices body-superior and inferior vena cava-left atrium-tricuspid valve-left ventricle-pulmonary semilunar valve- pulmonary trunk-pulmonary arteries-lungs body-superior and inferior vena cava-right atrium-bicuspid valve-right ventricle-pulmonary-semilunar valve-pulmonary trunk-pulmonary veins-lungs body-superior and inferior vena cava-right atrium-tricuspid valve-right ventricle-pulmonary-semilunar valve-pulmonary trunk-pulmonary arteries-lungs body-superior and inferior vena cava-left atrium-tricuspid valve-left ventricle-aortic semilunar valve-pulmonary trunk-pulmonary arteries-lungsarrow_forwardThe air we breathe in travels to our lungs where oxygen is picked up by our blood and then pumped by the heart to our tissue and organs. When a person experiences cardiac arrest, the heart goes from a normal beat to having an irregular rhythm and eventually ceases to beat altogether. This prevents oxygen from circulating throughout the body, rapidly killing cells and tissue. In essence, Cardio (heart) Pulmonary (lung) Resuscitation (revive, revitalize) serves as an artificial heartbeat and an artificial respirator. CPR may not save the victim even when performed properly, but if started within 4 minutes of cardiac arrest, a person has a 40% chance of survival You see a man collapse on close assessment, you realize the man has no movement and is not breathing. Recommend the first Aid you would give to this casualty clearly stating the CPR procedure? A nose bleed is when blood flows from one or both nostrils.
