How the blood vessels can respond to the lack of blood?
vasoconstriction and venoconstriction (arteries and veins) renin/aldosterone secretion by kidneys (to increase blood volume by preventing water and sodium loss) blood redistributed to vital organs (brain, heart, kidney and liver) tachycardia of heart (increased heart rate
Is it normal to black out?
It is not normal to black out. When a "black-out" occurs, it is due to some kind of problem with the body, and generally results from a sudden decrease in the amount of oxygen flow to the brain. Black-outs can occur due to low blood pressure. This low blood pressure, in turn, can be due to a problem with the pumping ability of the heart, a sudden loss of muscular tone in the arteries, blood loss, or even a psychological shock ("fainting"). Black-outs can also occur due to excessive toxic exposure (drinking too much), trauma to the brain (getting "knocked out"), or a sudden decrease in oxygen (altitude sickness).
Why is it dangerous for a person if one of his arteries is cut?
Arteries carries the high-pressure blood coming from the heart, so a cut artery will bleed a lot more than a cut vein, which carries the low pressure blood returning to the heart. Lacerating an artery can result in severe blood loss. Severe blood loss can result in damage to the brain which, depending on the location and severity of the damage, can cause loss of coordination and mobility, loss of sensation or sensory ability in part or totally, and/or loss of cognitive functions. Of you could just die.
What risks are associated with joint replacement surgery?
the development of blood clots that may come loose and block the arteries, excessive loss of blood, and infection
Why do some people experience a sudden loss of balance when their legs randomly give out?

What is a fat embolism?
A fat embolism is when fat enters the bloodstream and blocks a blood vessel causing loss of blood flow to an area of the body. This can lead to a stroke if it occurs in the carotid arteries or a heart attack if it happens in the coronary arteries.
Why is important for arteries Tobe buried deep in the body?
It's important for arteries to be buried deep within the body for their protection. A rupture or breach of an arterial wall can result in rapid and dangerous blood loss because the contained blood is under high pressure.
Who would you see for sudden hair loss?

What does arteries mean?
The arteries are the blood vessels that generally carry oxygenated blood from the heart around the body. 'Arteries' comes from the Greek 'arteria', which means windpipe. People in ancient times believed the arteries were empty, containing only air. If someone had been killed due to blood loss, the arterial pressure would have causes the arteries to drain, which is why they may have looked empty on examination.
Is Arteries and The Heart the same thing?
The artery and the heart are both part of the cardiovascular system, but they differ in meaning. Arteries carry blood away from the heart. They are thick-walled and elastic. Blood from the arteries is under high pressure since it has just come from the heart. A cut in the artery may be fatal due to blood loss. However, this thickness, elasticity, and location protect it from damage. The heart is like the central station. It is a powerful muscular organ. It is also responsible for the circulation of blood.
