In which type of blood vessel is blood at its highest blood pressure?
Aorta has highest pressure. Pressure gradually decreases as blood moves towards heart.
What type of blood vessel do you take blood pressure in?
Blood pressure is taken through an artery. Normal BP is highest in the artery side of the circulatory system and lower in the venous side.
Which type of blood vessel exhibits elastic recoil to maintain diastolic blood pressure?
Arteries!
Which type of vessel carries blood away from the heart?
Arteries carry blood away from the heart and veins carry blood into the heart.
Since the veins contain most of the body's blood at any one time do they have a higher blood pressure than any other type of vessel?
No, the arteries have higher blood pressure.
Which type of blood vessel drains blood from tissues and returns it to the heart?
Veins are the type of blood vessel that drains blood from tissues and returns it to the heart.
Baroreceptors that function in the regulation of blood pressure are located in?
Baroreceptors regulate the blood pressure of all vertebrae and are located in the blood vessels. It is a type of mechanoreceptor which is excited when a blood vessel is stretched.
What type of tissue is a blood vessel?
......
Which type of blood vessel takes blood from the heart?
Arteries
When there is increased resistance then arteriolar constriction and pressure drops?
Resistance changes dramatically with changes in diameter of blood vessels (arterioles are one type of blood vessel). If you INCREASE the diameter of the arteriole, you DECREASE the resistance and thus DECREASE the blood pressure.
What type of blood vessel will usually contain blood under high pressure?
Arteries. This is because the heart is pumping the blood away from the heart through the arteries, thus they are very high pressure due to the force of the blood being pushed quickly through a confined space.
What type of blood vessel lets gases?
capillary
