Question 1

Cardiac output:

Answer 1

AMOUNT OF BLOOD PUMPED BY ONE VENTRICLE IN ONE MINUTE; MEASURES IN mL

Question 2

Formula to calculate cardiac output:

Answer 2

OF HEART BEATS IN 1 MIN. x VOLUME OF BLOOD EJECTED BY VENTRICLE EACH HEARTBEAT (mL) = VOLUME OF BLOOD EJECTED PER MIN. (mL PER MIN). HR x SV = CO

Question 3

Rate of perfusion:

Answer 3

MEASURE OF HOW MUCH BLOOD ARRIVES AT TISSUES; MEASURED IN mL/min/g

Question 4

What is endothelium?

Answer 4

TISSUE THAT LINES THE LUMEN OF VESSELS & HEART CHAMBERS & VAVLES

Answer 6

SIMPLE SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM

Question 7

Answer 7

PUSH STUFF OUT OF ARTERIES (FILTRATION).

Question 8

COLLOID PRESSURE:

Answer 8

ALLOWS SUBSTANCES TO BE DRAWN INTO VEINS (RESORPTION)

Question 9

SYSTOLIC PRESSURE:

Answer 9

FORCE EXERTED ON VESSEL WALL WHEN VENTRICLE CONTRACTS.

Question 10

DIASTOLIC PRESSURE:

Answer 10

FORCE EXERTED ON VESSEL WALL WHEN VENTRICLE RELAXES.

Question 11

ANGIOGENESIS:

Answer 11

CREATION OF NEW BLOOD VESSELS.

Question 12

REGRESSION:

Answer 12

BLOOD VESSELS THAT ARE NO LONGER ACTIVE MAY REGRESS
