What is the difference between elastic arteries and muscular arteries? Elastic arteries are closest to the arterioles and muscular arteries are farther away. Elastic arteries have more smooth muscle than muscular arteries. Muscular arteries have larger lumens than elastic arteries. Elastic arteries have elastic fibers throughout the tunica media whereas muscular arteries have few elastic fibers in the tunica media. Elastic arteries have a larger tunica intima and tunica media compared to muscular arteries.

Elastic arteries have elastic fibers throughout the tunica media whereas muscular arteries have few elastic fibers in the tunica media.

internal iliac femoral external iliac common iliac inferior vena cava

For blood flow to be autoregulated, what types of stimuli signal inadequate local blood flow and blood pressure? (Figure 21-12) A) physical stress, chemical changes, and increased tissue activity B) carbon dioxide levels are low and pH is high C)increased baroreceptor stretch and decreased tissue activity D) blood oxygen levels are high E) decreased tissue activity and decreased inflammatory responses

physical stress, chemical changes, and increased tissue activity

Blood flow through a capillary is controlled by the? plexus. vasa vasorum. thoroughfare channel. precapillary sphincter. venule

precapillary sphincter.

As blood travels from arteries to veins pressure drops. pressure builds. flow becomes turbulent. diameter of the blood vessels gets progressively smaller. viscosity increases.

As blood travels from arteries to veins pressure drops.

Which of the following is true of arteries compared to other vessels? Blood pressure and cross-sectional area are lowest. Blood pressure and cross-sectional area are highest. Blood pressure and velocity are highest. Velocity and cross-sectional area are highest. Blood pressure and velocity are lowest.

Blood pressure and velocity are highest.

After entering the arm, the axillary artery becomes the ________ artery. brachial ulnar subclavian radial digital

Brachial

These vessels may be continuous or fenestrated.? capillaries venules arterioles arteries veins

capillaries

Identify the vein labeled "12."

cephalic median cubital brachial basilic radial

Venous valves are responsible for? preventing blood from re-entering a ventricle. preventing anterograde flow. channeling blood away from the heart. channeling blood toward the heart. regulating blood pressure in veins.
