What else can I help you with?
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.
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
What is the structure that drains blood from the glomerulus in the kidney?
The structure that drains blood from the glomerulus in the kidney is the efferent arteriole. This arteriole carries blood away from the glomerulus and plays a crucial role in regulating blood flow and pressure within the kidney.
What would be rate of diffusion if blood flow were to speed up?
If blood flow were to speed up, the rate of diffusion would increase. This is because faster blood flow would bring more oxygen and nutrients to the tissues, allowing for a quicker exchange of gases and nutrients between the blood and the cells through diffusion.
Would blood flow be Disrupted from sitting to long?
Yes , sometimes a leg/foot "goes to sleep" from the lack of blood flow .
Incompetent mitral valve allows the retrograde flow of blood from the left ventricle into this structure?
Incompetent mitral valve allows the retrograde flow of blood from the left ventricle into the left atrium.
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.
What would decreased peripheral resistance to blood flow?
Vasodilation and decreasing blood viscosity
