For the negative feedback loop that responds to changes in blood pressure sensed by baroreceptors, explain the following for when the stimulus is low blood pressure (hypotension):

A) What are the names of 2 out of the 3 regions of the medulla oblongata that serve as the control centers?

B) What are the two effector organs and how are their functions modified to promote an increase in BP as part of the response?

Capillary hydrostatic and osmotic pressures are important to determining fluid movement between the blood and interstitial fluid in capillary beds. 

1. Please compare HPc and OPc in the arterial end of the capillary bed and in the venous end of the capillary bed. In this context, compare means describing which pressure is greater than the other or if pressures are equal.

2. Please describe how one of these pressures could change to promote edema. In this context, change means a specific pressure becomes higher or lower.

With a patient that is administered an injection of erythropoietin (EPO) you would expect to see ________.

In general, which one of these changes in local chemical variables (which are metabolic controls that act as stimuli in autoregulation of blood flow to an organ) will cause a response of arteriole dilation that increases blood flow to the area/tissue? You are choosing the stimulus for this event.

Which one of the following is the most significant source of resistance to blood flow that changes on a minute to minute basis?

What artery found in the neck (and marked by the red dot next to the letter A in the image below) is a site where the pulse can easily be palpated?

During vigorous cardiovascular exercise, blood flow DECREASES to which one of the following places?

Select the TRUE statement from the statements below about factors that influence blood pressure.

Which one of the following statements best describes a standard myogenic response to a change in blood pressure?

For the renal control of blood pressure, the direct renal mechanism affects which one of the listed factors to help maintain normal blood pressure?
