What structure within a capillary bed shunts blood from arteriole to venule?
Artery -> Arteriole -> Capillary -> Venule -> Vein
The flow of blood from an arteriole to a venule is called what?
Microcirculation
What is the difference between arteriole and venule blood flow?
An arteriole transports oxygenated blood from the arteries to the capillary beds and a venule transports de-oxygenated blood from the capillary beds to the veins.
What kind of vessel gives blood to a capillary?
Either a arteriole on the artery side or a venule on the vein side of the bed.
What do the caplaries do?
Capillaries are blood vessels in the body that help transfer nutrients and waste between blood and tissue. They connect two other blood vessels, the arteriole and the venule.
What is the Medical term meaning tubes that carry the blood?
It's called blood vessel. it can be of following type viz Artery, Vein, Arteriole, Venule, Capillary.
What is one substance that is found in higher concentrations in the venule than in the arteriole?
Carbon dioxide is one substance that is found in higher concentrations in the venule than in the arteriole. This is because carbon dioxide is produced by cells during metabolism and diffuses from the tissues into the blood, resulting in higher concentrations in the venous circulation.
What is the function of a pulmonary arteriole?
a pulmonary artieriole is part of the respiratory system. inside the respiratory system is an organ called alveoli and the alveoli are covered in a network of capillary. the job of the pulmonary arteriole is to carry deoxygenated blood into the capillary network.
What is the blood vessel that drains blood from the glomerulus?
Efferent arteriole takes the blood away from the glomerulus
Explain how the blood vessels associated with the renal corpuscle help to maintain a relatively high blood pressure within the glomerulus?
The cluster of capillaries that forms a glomerulus arises from an afferent arteriole. After passing through the glomerular capillaries, blood (minus any filtered fluid) enters an efferent arteriole whose diameter is smaller than that of the afferent vessel. This is instead of entering a venule, the usual circulatory route. The efferent arteriole resists blood flow to some extent, which backs up blood into the glomerulus, increasing pressure in the glomerular capillary.
Which vessels carry blood between arterioles and venules?
Heart > artery > arteriole > capillary > venule > vein > heart
What structure shunts blood from the arteriole to the venule?
The structure of an arteriole is:Arterioles are tiny branches of arteries that lead to capillaries.These are also under the control of the sympathetic nervous system, and constrict and dialate, to regulate blood flow.
