The organs do this by varying the relative resistance of their own arterioles.

IS the adjustment of blood flow to each tissue in proportion to its requirements at any point in time termed autoregulation?

No, the adjustment of blood flow to each tissue in proportion to its requirements at any point in time is termed tissue autoregulation. Autoregulation refers to the ability of an organ or tissue to regulate its own blood flow independent of systemic factors.

How is the brain is kept alive by the circulatory system?

Almost none. It does control its own flow, and it will speed the heart in anticipation of need, but that does not effect the actual flow of blood.


When you lose blood do you ever gain it back own your own?

Yup, blood is made in the bone marrow and then when its old its broken down in the liver. You only get a blood transfusion when you have lost so much blood that your vital organs can no longer function or when your getting surgery to replace the blood lost when they are cutting you open.


What is autoregulation?

Autoregulation is a specific form of homeostasis used to describe the tendency of the body to keep blood flow constant when blood pressure varies.[1]. While most systems of the body show some degree of autoregulation, it is most clearly observed in the kidney, the heart, and the brain.[2] Perfusion of these organs (especially the latter two) is essential for life, and through autoregulation the body can divert blood (and thus, oxygen) where it is most needed. One key component of autoregulation is the absence of central control. The "auto" in autoregulation refers to the ability of the organ to maintain a stable flow without the involvement of the autonomic nervous system.


How does blood flow through major blood vessels in heart starting with deoxygenated blood returned from body?

it starts with the hear and enters the valve through the atrium


What structure in the heart distributes blood to body organs?

The Coronary arteries carry blood to the heart so the heart has its own supply of oxygen and nutrients to perform its function.


Whose blood is in a fetus?

A fetus has its own distinct blood, which is produced by its developing organs, primarily the liver and later the bone marrow. While the fetus receives oxygen and nutrients through the placenta from the mother's blood, the fetal blood contains unique proteins and cells that differentiate it from the mother's blood. Essentially, the fetus's blood is a combination of its own genetic makeup and the maternal environment.


Why do white blood cells attack your internal organs?

In a healthy person, white blood cells only attack invading germs, and would not attack the person's own internal organs. However, there are autoimmune diseases, which cause the immune system to become confused and to attack the wrong targets.


What are the three major circuits of blood flow?

Pulmonary circulation (between the heart and lungs) Systematic circulation (between the heart and the rest of the body) Coronary circulation (the heart's own blood supply/supply to cardiac tissue)


How will you describe the sequence of oxygencarbon dioxide.and blood flow in your own words?

The sequence of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the body begins when oxygen is inhaled into the lungs, where it diffuses into the bloodstream. Red blood cells then transport this oxygen to various tissues and organs. As cells use oxygen for energy, they produce carbon dioxide as a waste product, which is carried back to the lungs by the blood. Finally, carbon dioxide is expelled from the body when we exhale.
