Arterial blood tends to be what while venous blood is what?
Arterial blood is under direct pressure from the heart and is oxygen rich, which venous blood is oxygen poor and is under low pressure.
When you take a persons blood pressure it is a reflection of lymphatic pressure arterial pressure osmotic pressure or venous pressure?
arterial pressure
What is the difference between the blood in most veins and in most arteries?
The primary differences between venous blood and arterial blood are that arterial blood is oxygenated, under great pressure, and is moving from the heart, and that venous blood is deoxygenated, under low pressure, and is moving towards the heart.
What is the blood pressure in capillaries?
Generally the blood pressure at arterial end of the capillaries is about 30 mm of mercury. The blood pressure at the venous end of the capillaries is about 15 mm of mercury. The fluid exit the capillaries at arterial end. Fluid enters the capillaries at venous end.
Why arterial blood is more alkaline than venous blood?
pulmonary arterial blood as it has moce CO2 than venous
What type of bleeding is easiest to control?
Venous blood flow is easiest to control. Arterial blood flow is hardest to control because it is under pressure from the heart.
Do the arteries that carry blood from the heart to the lungs contain arterial or venous blood?
arterial
The partial pressure of carbon dioxide in venous blood is approximately?
46
What exchanges blood between the arterial and venous systems?
The arterial and venous systems are connected in the body tissues by capillaries, and also in the heart.
What exchange blood between arterial and venous systems?
The arterial and venous systems are connected in the body tissues by capillaries, and also in the heart.
Why arterial bleeding is difficult to control?
Because being closer to the beating of the heart, it has more pressure behind it. Arterial blood is "outboud". Venous blood is "inbound".ANS2:Arterial bleeding is difficult to control because the pulsing pressure, delivered directly from the heart, makes clot formation less effective for staunching the flow than it would be for capillary or venous bleeding.
What are the two examples of blood flow?
venous and arterial
