Absence causes the spiral arteries of the endometrium to go into spasm and kink and the endometrium to sloug off?
Absence causes the spiral arteries of the endometrium to go into spasm and kink and the endometrium to slough off menses. This is an ovarian hormone that happens to a woman each month during her cycle.
Blood pressure is affected by constriction and dilation of?
Arteries and blood vessels.
What is it called when the sympathetic stimulation keeps the arteries in a constant state of partial constriction?
Vascular tone
What causes sympathetic division stimulation?
with stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system there will be a. constriction of the pupils b. dilation of the coronary arteries c. constriction of selected blood vessels d. profuse sweating
Sympathetic nervous system stimulation causes what?
with stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system there will be a. constriction of the pupils b. dilation of the coronary arteries c. constriction of selected blood vessels d. profuse sweating
Is smoking bad for high blood?
Smoking can cause hardening and constriction of the arteries so it is bad if you have high blood pressure.
What happens if the hormone progesterone is not secreted in a human female?

What type of muscles are your arteries?
Arteries are composed mainly of smooth muscle cells, also known as vascular smooth muscle. These muscle cells are responsible for regulating the diameter and constriction of the arteries, allowing for the control of blood flow and pressure. Additionally, arteries also have a layer of connective tissue and endothelial cells that line the inner surface.
What is myocardial infarction?

What are the characteristic of arteries?
They have thick walls and carry oxygenated blood from the heart around the body
What is the characteristic of the veins?
Veins have thinner walls compared to arteries. They also have larger lumens than arteries which is the space inside the vessel. Lastly they have one-way valves to help keep the blood flowing in one direction.
Why does bp rise?
A few reasons, either constriction of arteries and veins, logically, same volume in a smaller area equals a greater pressure. Or the heart working harder, which is influenced by physical activities, smoking, and other outside stimuli.
