What else can I help you with?
What do you call the expansion and contraction of the arterial walls that can be felt in all the arteries near the surface of the skin?
The expansion and contraction of the arterial walls is the pulse.
Strength of arterial and capillary walls?
The arterial and capillary walls are incredibly strong. This is true otherwise you would be bleeding just by tapping yourself.
Plaque on the arterial walls is characteristic of?
atherosclerosis.
Compare the strength of arterial walls and capillary walls?
arterial walls has smooth muscle and elastic fibers (strong and flexible) and capillaries are made up of a single layer of endothelial cells (thin).
What is the stretching of the arterial walls called?
The stretching of the arterial walls is called arterial dilation or vasodilation. This process occurs when the smooth muscle in the arterial walls relaxes, allowing the blood vessels to widen and increase blood flow. It is a crucial mechanism for regulating blood pressure and ensuring adequate perfusion to various tissues in the body. Factors such as increased blood flow, hormonal signals, and certain medications can trigger arterial dilation.
Beat of the heart as felt through the arterial walls?
Pulse
Why do people with diabetes have poor circulation?
Because the arterial walls begin to harden and plaque formation increases within the walls of the arteries.
What is an arteritis?
An arteritis is an inflammation of arterial walls, often due to infection or an autoimmune response.
Are the walls in arteries thicker than the walls in veins?
The arterial walls are thicker because they need to withstand the pressure coming from the heart.
What is the reason you feel a pulse?
This is the force of the blood being pumped in an artery pressing against the arterial walls.
What in the blood at elevated levels can damage arterial walls and increase the risk of coronary artery disease?
Aids
How do venous pressures compare to arterial pressures?
Much lower... because arterial walls get their pressure via force of the left ventricle pumping into the arteries. Veins are not exposed to such force and get their pressure via muscle pumps.Much lower... because arterial walls get their pressure via force of the left ventricle pumping into the arteries.
