parasympathatic N.S tends to decrease heart rate , giving more time for diastolic filling and thus increasing the EDV , and increasing the SV according to Frank-starlling law. but this doesn't imply an increase in the cardiac output , because i depend on the heart rate too(which was declined)

When does capillarization occur?

due to an increase in the stroke volume and also the increase in blood volume. it has to keep up with the required levels of oxygen, vital after long term exersice.


Would stroke volume increase or decrease if your unhealthy?

increase because the more unhealthy you are leads to you to eating more unhealthy things witch can cause strokes


What is the average stroke volume in an adult at rest?

The average stroke volume of the heart at rest for an adult is 70 ml.


What does SV stand for in the relationship CO equals HRSV?

In the relationship CO equals HRSV, SV stands for stroke volume.


What is the challenge to the body during the fight or flight response?

During the fight or flight response sympathetic system gets activated. Hypothalmus is the highest center of autonomic nervous system. But when you see a snake in room and you run away, then obviously cerebral cortex is involed. You have sudden increase in heart rate from 72 to 160/180/minute, with in seconds. Increase in stroke volume, increase in force of contraction of heart. So cardiac out put increases from 5 liters/minute to 25 liters/minute. This happens through stimulation of beta one receptors. Most of the blood (20 liters/minute.) goes to muscles through beta two receptor stimulation. It dilates the blood vessels going to muscles. Bronchi dilate and bronchial secretions decrease in order that air should flow freely to alveoli.This happens through stimulation of beta two receptors. As in this emergency, you need more oxygen. Respiratoty rate rises to 40 to 45/mintute from 12/minute. Blood supply to digestive system becomes less as digetion can wait in emergency. This happens through stimulation of alfa one receptors. The digestive secretions are decreased, peristalsis decreased and spinctures are closed. This happens through alfa two receptor stimulation. Blood supply to skin is decreased, through stimulation of alfa one receptors. Salivery secretions decrease. Leading to dry mouth. Pupils are dilated so that you can have clear view of the danger. Urinary bladder relaxes and spincture contracts.(Urination is not an emmergency.)

What is the sympathetic effect on the heart?

Heart rate increases with sympathetic nervous system. There is increase in stroke volume and cardiac output. With stimulation of vagus nerve or parasympathetic nervous system, You have decrease in heart rate. There is decrease the stroke volume and cardiac output.


What is the sympathetic effect on stroke volume?

increased contractility


How does increase in stroke volume?

Increase stroke if we no dot do exercises & healthy food vegetables


Does stroke volume increase if end diastolic volume decrease?

false, stroke volume decreases if the end volume decreases.


What two mechanisms influence the force of cardiac contraction?

End diastolic volume and sympathetic nervous system stimulation


Would an increase in contractility cause an increase to cardiac output?

Yes - an increase in contractility would lead to an increase in stroke volume. An increased stroke volume would cause an increased cardiac output.


What increases stroke volume?

increase venous return


How can stroke volume can be altered?

Stroke volume is determined by three factors, altering any of them can change the stroke volume. These factors are preload, afterload, and contractility. The relationship is: SV = P*C/A What this means is that preload and contractility are directly proportional to the stroke volume and afterload is inversely proportional to stroke volume. If you increase preload (within certain limits), stroke volume will increase according to the Starling curve. Increasing contractility (many things can increase this), makes the heart pump harder and increases stroke volume. Increasing afterload decreases stroke volume. All of these can be reversed (decreasing preload and contractility = decreased stroke volume, etc). Get a good physiology book and it will explain all of this very well.


What are the comparatives action on the parasympathetic nerves and sympathetic nerves in circulatory system of the body?

The parasympathetic nerves secrete norepinepherine at the AV node (the pacemaker), which slows the heart and reduces stroke volume (the amount of blood the ventricles pump out with each cycle. Sympathetic nerves do the opposite; they secrete epinepherine at the AV node, which stimulates the heart to increase speed and stroke volume, so that more blood is pumped from the heart faster.


Does a slower heart rate increase end diastolic volume stroke volume and force a contraction?

yes


Why does stroke volume increase from childhood to adulthood?

Because adults have a greater volume of blood than children do.


Does increasing arterial blood pressure increases blood flow?

YES! Changes in blood volume affect arterial pressure by changing cardiac output. An increase in blood volume increases central venous pressure. This increases right atrial pressure, right ventricular end - diastolic pressure and volume. This increase in ventricular preload increases ventricular stroke volume by the Frank - Starling mechanism. An increase in right ventricular stroke volume increases pulmonary venous blood flow to the left ventricular, thereby increasing left ventricular preload and stroke volume. An increase in stroke volume then increases cardiac output and arterial blood pressure. answered by HappyNess0423
