Which of the following is involved in long-term blood pressure regulation?

Answer 1

Heart rate, the constriction of the arterial walls (reducing/increasing the volume of the circulatory system) and the blood volume in the circulatory system. If you wish to increase or decrease blood pressure, you can do this through adjusting any of the above and more.

Answer 2

The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) or the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is a hormone system that regulates blood pressure and water (fluid) balance. When blood volume is low, the kidneys secrete renin. Renin stimulates the production of angiotensin. Angiotensin causes blood vessels to constrict resulting in increased blood pressure. Angiotensin also stimulates the secretion of the hormone aldosterone from the adrenal cortex. Aldosterone causes the tubules of the kidneys to retain sodium and water. This increases the volume of fluid in the body, which also increases blood pressure. If the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system is too active, blood pressure will be too high. There are many drugs which interrupt different steps in this system to lower blood pressure. These drugs are one of the main ways to control high blood pressure (hypertension), heart failure, kidney failure, and harmful effects of Diabetes.[1][2]

Answer 3

You can regulate your blood pressure by the food you eat. For some, medication, such as Lozol, are used to regulate blood pressure.

Answer 4

the heart and the degree of contraction of the smooth muscle within which the blood vessels are contained

Answer 5

How is blood glucose regulated

Answer 6

Renal mechanisms

Answer 7

the circulatory system
