blood vessel pt 2
venules
After blood leaves the capillaries, it enters the
carotid sinuses
Arterial sense organs in the carotid arteries that monitor blood pressure are called
pressure decreases
As blood travels from the aorta toward the capillaries, the pressure decreases diameter of the blood vessels increases resistance decreases viscosity increases. flow increases.

What is the function of capillaries?
Aorta → brachiocephalic trunk → right subclavian artery → right axillary artery → right brachial artery → right ulnar artery → palmar arches → right ulnar vein → right brachial vein → right axillary vein → right subclavian vein → right brachiocephalic vein → superior vena cava
