Baroceptor Reflex:
If Blood pressure increases, Baroceptor Activity will:
Increases the Cardioinhibitory Center (CIC) in the medulla decreasing the Blood Pressure back to normal
Baroceptor Reflex:
If blood pressure decreases, Baroceptor Activity will:
Decrease the CIC which will increased the blood pressure Back to normal

Anemia:
Failure of stem cells in red marrow to function properly which decrease RBC count:
Aplastic Anemia
Anemia:
Increase rate of RBC destruction
Hemolytic
(parasite)
Anemia:
B12 deficiency:
Pernicious Anemia
Anemia:
low iron which lack hemaglobin reducing RBC
Iron deficient Anemia
Abnormal excess of RBC Production by red marrow:
Polycythemia
Anticoagulant that helps prevent abnormal clots in the blood
Heparin
Hole between 2 atria in fetal skeleton:
Foramen ovale
Name given to foramen ovale after it seals after birth:
Fossa Ovalas
Hole in the heart when the foramen ovale fails to close:
Interatrial septal Defect
Tube in Fetal skeleton connecting aorta with pulmonary trunk:
Ductus Artiriosis
The ductus arteriosis when seals off is koown as:
Ligamentus artiriosum
WBC when monocytes leave through cappilary walls the movement is known as:
Emmigration
Monocytes after emmegration is known as:
macrophages
"lubb" sound occrurs as:
AV valves close
"dubb" sound occurs as:
SLV's close
"pacemaker of the heart"
SA node
Generates the cardiac impulse causing the heart to beat:
SA node
An electrical "bridge" or coupling that connects the atria with the ventricles:
AV Node
delays the spread of the cardiac impulse
AV Node
Cardiac impulse crosses AV node and spreads rapidly through ventricles by way of AV Bundle and then by way of special myocardial cells:
Purkinje fibers
Parasympathetic effect are mediated by what neurotransmitter
Ach
Resting BP and digestive state:
Parasympathetic Effects
Effect turned on when your stressed
Increase:
HR
BP
Sympathetic Effects
Lipoprotein synthesized by liver cells with cholesterol and TG attached to them:
VLDL
(Very Low Density Lipoproteins)
When VLDL lose the TG they become:
LDL
(Low density Lipoproteins)
Carry cholesterol to the cells of the body and to the walls of arterioles to form plaque:
LDL
Protein that binds to cholesterol and carries it away from plaque
HDL
(High density lipoprotein)
How does HDL gets rid of cholesterol:
Takes cholesterol to liver which puts it in bile then into ducts into the small intestine then into feces.
How many O2 can a hemoglobin carry:
4
02 in hemoglobin binds to:
Iron of the heme
Fast resting heart rate >100 bpm
Tachycardia
Slow resting heart rate < 60 bpm
Bradycarida
Calculating BP
Cardiac Output x Peripheral Resistance
amount of blood pumped by the ventricles into the aorta or pulmonary trunk:
Cardiac Output
Cardiac Output is determined by:
Stroke Volume and Heart Rate
the volume of blood ejected by the ventricle per beat:
Stroke Volume
70ml/beat
Number of heart beats per minute:
Heart Rate
Cardiac Duty Cycle lasts:
0.8 secionds
Pumping of blood:
Systole (0.3 sec)
Relaxation and filling of blood
Diastole (0.5 sec)
Cardiac Duty Cycle consists of:
A. Diastole = Fill
V. Systole = Contract
A. Systole = Contract
V.Diastole = Fill
foreign chemicals in the body

when exposed to antigens, b bells become:
Plasma Cells
Plasma cells secrete
Antibodies
