What is the importance of the arterial anastomoses?
they form alternate pathways for blood to reach a given body region
Does baking soda raise your PH in your body?
Baking soda does raise your blood pressure. Since Baking soda raises blood pressure and if your blood pressure is high then there will be a higher diffusion of Nutrients, O2, Proteins at the arterial end of the capillary into the Interstitial Fluid due to a higher pressure gradient and thus at the venous end of the capillary a low concentration of CO2 (produced by the cells) will diffuse from the interstitial fluid into the venous end of the capillary. So overall the dissolved CO2 in the blood will be low. So how does CO2 relate to pH? we know that CO2 combines with H2O to form Carbonic Acid; Carbonic Acid in turn disassociates to form H+ and HCO3- CO2 + H20 --> H2CO3 --> H+ + HCO3- Since the CO2 level in the blood is low there will be Less H+ in the blood and therefore the pH of the blood will be high, Causing Alkalosis.
How does glomerulus lay an im ortant role in excretion?
It is the capillary tuft in the kidney that is involved in the first step of filtering the blood to form urine.
What converges to form venules?
Capillaries converge to form venules. After the exchange of gases, nutrients, and waste products in the capillary beds, the deoxygenated blood collects into small veins known as venules. These venules then combine to form larger veins, ultimately returning blood to the heart.
Can blood vessels make new blood vessels?
Blood vessels can form new blood vessels, this is called angiogenesis.
Is the transport of blood by the combining of endothelial cells to form a capillary an example of Asexual reproduction?
No, it is an example of emergent properties. Source: A college Biology textbook
What is the function of venules?
A venule is a small vein. A vein always carries blood to the heart and usually carries oxygen poor blood. Since the circulatory system is circular, all of the vessels connect at some point. That happens in capillary beds, which are where venules (small veins) and arterioles (small arteries) meet. Arteries carry blood away from the heart and are usually oxygen rich. Venules fuse to form veins that bring the blood back to the heart where it can get oxygenated and deliver it to body tissues where the whole cycle starts again.
What is the full form of MABF?
MABF stands for Mean Arterial Blood Flow. It is a measure of the average pressure in a patient's arteries during a single cardiac cycle. Mean arterial blood flow is calculated by adding one-third of the systolic blood pressure to two-thirds of the diastolic blood pressure. It is an important parameter in assessing cardiovascular function and tissue perfusion.
What is capillary washout?
Capillary washout is a stage of shock that is irreversible. When capillary washout occurs all cell functions stop and the cells die. There is large amounts of potassium acid forced in to the openings of the capillary sphincters and begin to form clots.
What imbalance results when systemic arterial blood co2 levels raise to abnormal values?
When systemic arterial blood CO2 levels rise to abnormal values, it leads to respiratory acidosis, characterized by a decrease in blood pH. This occurs because excess CO2 combines with water to form carbonic acid, increasing acidity in the blood. The resulting imbalance can impair cellular function and lead to symptoms such as confusion, drowsiness, and shortness of breath. If not addressed, severe respiratory acidosis can be life-threatening.
Cell fragments that climp together to form a plug that helps reduce blood loss?
Cell fragments that clump together to help reduce blood loss are called platelets. These platelets are found floating in the blood stream. When a capillary or any kind of blood vessel is cut/damaged, chemicals are released and it in a way, calls out to the platelets to come and to start help form a plug to reduce blood loss from the injured spot.
Which property of water results in a meniscus?
Adhesion due to the polarity of the water molecule.
