22
Q

what are the 3 layers that arteries and veins made of

A

endothelium, smooth muscle, connective tissue

23
Q

why do veins have valves

A

to prevent backflow

24
Q

are thin walls formed by a single layer of epithelial cells

25
it is specialized for chemical exchange
capillaries
26
is the force blood exerts on the blood vessel walls
blood pressure
27
formula for blood pressure
BP= CO times R
28
does blood pressure decreases or increases as blood moves away from the heart
decreases
29
where is blood pressure the highest? lowest?
arteries; veins
30
how is blood pressure measured as?
systolic and diastolic pressure
31
this is caused by contraction of the ventricles
systolic pressure
32
this is the low pressure between contractions
diastolic pressure
33
what sends signals to the effectors
medulla oblongata
34
35
when blood pressure is constantly at or above 140/90, what happens?
hypertension
36
what are the effects of hypertension
increase the risk of blood clot formation heart attacks, kidney failure, strokes
37
