Place the steps of angiotensin II formation in the correct sequence
-low blood pressure in kidney -renin released into the blood -conversion of angiotensinogen into angiotensin I -ACE converts angiotensin I into angiotensin II -vasocontriction occure and thirst center is stimulated
edema can be caused as a result of which event(s)
-obstruction of lympathic vessles, blocking lymphatic drainage -decreased plasma preotein concentration, causing a decrease in osmosis of interstitial fluid into capillaries -hypertension, causing an increase in tissue fluid at the arteriolar ends of capillaries
Rank in order the events involved in the production of angiotensin II
1. Kidneys detect low blood pressure 2. Renin is released from the kidney 3. Angiotensinogen is converted to angiotensin I 4. Angiotensin II is formed after contract with angiotensin-converting enzyme
place the events of the autonomic blood pressure regulation in the correct sequence
1. blood pressure increases 2. blood vessel wall stretches 3. baroreceptors in vessels increase firing rates 4. sensory input send to cardiovascular center 5. cardioacceleratory center decreases nerve signals along sympatheic pathways 6. heart rate and stroke volume decreases 7. blood flow returns to resting levels

A patient's systolic pressure is 130 and diastolic pressure is 90. What is the pulse pressure
40
classify the given terms or examples with the appropriate category
Angiotensin II -decreases urine output -vasoconstrictor -stimulates thirst center -mainly formed in the lungs Aldosterone -decreases urine output -produced in the adrenal cortex ADH -vasopressin -vasoconstriction -decreases urine output -released from the posterior pituitary ANP -vasodilator -increases urine output -secreted by the atrium
drag each label into the appropriate postition to identify whether the characteristic is indicative of arteries or veins.
Arteries -most carry oxygenated blood from the heart to the body -have pulsatile flow of blood -exhibit greater ability to alter vessel diameter Veins -contain the majority of blood at any one time -usually denoted in blue systemically -collapsed when empty -rely on muscular pumps to propel blood
classify the given terms or examples with the appropriate category filtration and reabsorption
Filtration -occurs at the arterial end of a capillary -movement of fluid out of blood Reabsorption -occurs at the venous end of a capillary -movement of fluid back into the blood
classify the terms or examples with the appropriate cateragory
Hydrostatic Pressure -mainly pushes material out of a capillary -physical force extered by a fluid on a structure -can promote filtration from a capillary Colloid Osmotic Pressure -pull of water back into a tissue -typically promotes reabsorption
indicate whether the given condition would increase or decrease blood flow with all other factors being equal.
Increase flow -increasing blood pressure -increasing blood viscosity Decrease flow -increasing blood viscosity -dehydration -vasoconstriction -increased resistance
classify the given terms or examples with the appropriate category vasodialtors and vasoconstrictors
Vasodilators -bradykinin -histamine -decreased nutrients levels Vasoconstrictors -endothelins -thromboxanes
select all the hormones that increase blood pressure
angiotensin II aldosterone antidiuretic hormone (ADH)
Although net filtration occurs at the ____ end of a capillary and net reabsorptioin at its ____ end, not all of the fluid is reabsorbed. The capillary typically reabsorbs only about ____ of the fluid that has passed into the interstitial fluid. The ____ system is responsible for picking up ____ of this excess fluid and returning it to the blood.
arterial venous 85% lymphatic 15%
classify the given terms or examples with the appropriate category
arteries -pulsatile -have a pulse pressure -have systolic and diastolic pressures veins -20-0 mm Hg capillaries -40-20mmHg -pressures determine net filtration -sufficient to drive exchange at tissues
Blood pressure is highest in the ____ and lowest in the ____.
arteries closest to the heart; veins
In both pulmonary and systemic circulation, gas exhange occurs at the

In the capillaries very large molecules, which are not lipid soluble, remain. An example of these would be ____. -These molecules are responsible for the ____, which draws water into the capillaries to help return fulids at the ____ end of the capillary.
