What is the correct sequence of arteries that a drop of blood would flow through as it entered the kidney and moved toward a glomerulus?
Renal artery - segmental artery - interlobar artery - arcuate artery - interlobular artery
What transplantable structure controls the direction of blood flow in the heart?
Valvs
What refers to the circulation of blood through an organ or a structure?
Blood flow is a term that refers to the circulation of blood through an organ or structure. Another term often used is microcirculation.
What is tissue perfusion?
Blood flow and tissue perfusion are NOT the same thing. An increase in blood flow does not always mean that there is a parallel increase in tissue perfusion. While blood flow is generally understood as an increase in the total amount of blood flowing into an anatomic structure or region, tissue perfusion is the amount of blood that actually flow through the capillaries of the vascular bed of that structure or region. The important thing to remember is that nutrients and oxygen are delivered to the cells via the capillaries.
Trace blood supply through the kidney?
***CORRECT ANSWER***Renal Arteries--> Segmental Arteries--> Lobar Arteries--> Interlobar Arteries--> Arcuate Arteries--> Cortical Radiate Arteries--> Afferent Arterioles--> Glomeruli--> Efferent Arterioles--> Peritubular Capillaries--> Cortical Radiate Veins--> Arcuate Veins--> Interlobar Veins--> Renal Vein.
What would experience a decreased blood flow during exercise?
no it actually stimulates blood flow
Would skeletal muscles experience a decreased blood flow during exercise?
I could be wrong but, I think it would decrease your blood flow
Incompetent mitral valve allows the retrograde flow of blood from the left ventricle into this structure?
Left Atrium
What structure must be open to allow blood to flow from the atrium to the ventricle?
the pulmonary artery
Damage to the left semilunar valve would interfere with blood flow to this vessel?
Damage to the left semilunar valve would interfere with blood flow to the aorta. Damage to the semilunar valve of the right side of the heart would affect the blood flow to the pulmonary artery.
Would blood flow be Disrupted from sitting to long?
Yes , sometimes a leg/foot "goes to sleep" from the lack of blood flow .
Why is aortic arch important?
This is a good question! You have to keep heart inside the cage. Because it is important structure. So you have thoracic cage. You can avoid aortic arch by keeping the heart in inverted position. But in that case blood flow would have gushed to the lower extremity. Important organs like brain would get less blood supply. Unimportant organs like lower extremity will get more blood supply. To avoid this problems the heart is placed in upright position. It has got the mechanical advantage. The brain and upper extremity gets direct blood supply. The arch will not create any problem to the blood flow. There is no sudden folding of the blood vessel. That would create problems to the smooth flow of the blood. Cells in the blood are very much delicate ones. They would have got ruptured. That would have created havoc. There will be clotting of the blood inside the blood vessels. Due to arch structure of aorta, important organs get initial high blood pressure. These are the obvious mechanical reasons. Someone should improve the answer.
