What is included in the microcirculation?
What are atrioventricular anastomoses's, and what is their role in temperature regulation?
What is the tone of the terminal arterioles controlled by?
How was capillaries/post capillary venules able to constrict without SM?
How is excess fluid/protein absorbed and transported back?
What route does it take back to blood?
What do microorganisms get transported to?
What are the three types of capillaries?
Where are they found?
Continuous capillaries:
- Continuous thin layer of ...cells surrounded by membrane
- .... for quick and easy exchange of gas and solutes
- ...within endothelial cells that limit passage of substances
- ... that can cause constriction or relaxation
Fenestrated capillary:
- Endothelium perforated by ... (Except glomerulus)
- ....within endothelium that allows .... to go through more easily
Discontinious capillary:
- ....gaps
- Located in places where ...
- Basement membrane has .... to allow cells to go through
- that show the gaps
How do gases move across capillary walls?
What is their rate of diffusion?
How do small solutes (eg. salts) move across the capillary wall?
What is their rate of diffusion?
How does water move across the capillary wall?
What is their rate of diffusion?
How do proteins move across the capillary wall?
What is their rate of diffusion?
What is the purpose of the blood brain barrier?
What is blocked?
What is freely transported?
What is filtration?
What are the two determinants of fluid filtration?
How does standing impact pressure in the capillaries?
How does high venous pressure impact filtration? (common in heart failure)
What is the structure of the lymphatic system, starting from fluid from blood capillary going to the lymphatic capillary?
How does a decreased oncotic pressure gradient lead to oedema?
What is this caused by?
What causes increased hydrostatic pressure and how does this lead to oedema?
What is Elephantiasis and what does it cause?
What is Starling's Equation?
