Q

What are the three requirements for the circulatory system to remain in tact?

A

The Heart: The pump
Blood and Body Fluids: Fluid Volume
Blood Vessels: tubing systems that allows constriction and dilation in accordance to changes in the pump or volume

2
Q

Name the three types of Cellular Respiration

A

Glycolysis
Citric Acid Cycle
Electron Transport Chain

3
Q

Glycolsis

A

Glucose is broken down into pyruvic acid and produces 2 ATP molecules

4
Q

Citric Acid Cycle

A

a sequence of enzymatic reactions occur to convert pyruvic acid into water, ATP, CO2, acetyl coenzyme A and high energy electrons.

5
Q

Electron Transport Chain

A

Converts these high energy electrons into more ATP and releases water and heat as by products. This is known as the aerobic pathway since oxygen is the final electron donor via this process. a high amount of ATP is produced in this process.

Q

Rough Estimate about overall blood volume for a female or male

A

70 ml per kg for a male
65 ml per kg for a female

Note* The Body cannot tolerate more than 20% of an acute blood loss
