Chapter 21: Blood Vessels and Circulation Biol 141 A & P R. L. Brashear-Kaulfers
5 Classes of Blood Vessels 1. Arteries: – carry blood away from heart 2. Arterioles: – Are smallest branches of arteries 3. Capillaries: – – are smallest blood vessels location of exchange between blood and interstitial fluid 4. Venules: – collect blood from capillaries 5. Veins: – return blood to heart
The Largest Blood Vessels • Attach to heart • Pulmonary trunk: – carries blood from right ventricle – to pulmonary circulation • Aorta: – carries blood from left ventricle – to systemic circulation
The Smallest Blood Vessels • Capillaries • Have small diameter and thin walls • Chemicals and gases diffuse across walls
Structure of Vessel Walls Tunica Externa In arteries: contain collagen elastic fibers In veins: contain elastic fibers smooth muscle cells Figure 21 -1
Arteries vs. Veins • Arteries and veins run side-by-side • Arteries have thicker walls and higher blood pressure • Collapsed artery has small, round lumen • Vein has a large, flat lumen • Vein lining contracts, artery lining does not • Artery lining folds • Arteries more elastic • Veins have valves
Arteries and Pressure • Elasticity allows arteries to absorb pressure waves that come with each heartbeat • Contractility -Arteries change diameter • Controlled by sympathetic division of ANS
Vasoconstriction and Vasodilation • Vasoconstriction -The contraction of arterial smooth muscle by the ANS • Vasodilatation- The relaxation of arterial smooth muscle Enlarging the lumen • Both Affect: – afterload on heart – peripheral blood pressure – capillary blood flow
Structure of Blood Vessels Artery Characteristics From heart to capillaries, arteries change: from elastic arteries to muscular arteries to arterioles Figure 21 -2
Arterioles • Are small • Have little or no tunica externa • Have thin or incomplete tunica media
Artery Diameter • Small muscular arteries and arterioles: – changes with sympathetic or endocrine stimulation – constricted arteries oppose blood flow • Resistance (R) -The force opposing blood flow • Resistance vessels: – arterioles
Aneurysm • A bulge in an arterial wall • Is caused by weak spot in elastic fibers • Pressure may rupture vessel
Capillaries • Are smallest vessels with thin walls • Microscopic capillary networks permeate all active tissues Capillary Function • Location of all exchange functions of cardiovascular system • Materials diffuse between blood and interstitial fluid
Capillary Structure Figure 21 -4
2 Types of Capillaries 1. Continuous capillaries-Have complete endothelial lining Are found in all tissues except epithelia and cartilage • Permit diffusion of: – • Block: – • Water, small solutes, Lipid-soluble materials blood cells, plasma proteins Are in CNS and thymus, Have very restricted permeability e. g. , the blood–brain barrier 2. Fenestrated capillaries-Have complete endothelial lining Are found in all tissues except epithelia and cartilage, in choroid plexus, endocrine organs, kidneys, intestinal tract
Capillary Networks Capillary bed or capillary plexus Connect 1 arteriole and 1 venule Figure 21 -5
Capillary Sphincter • Guards entrance to each capillary • Opens and closes, causing capillary blood to flow in pulses • Vasomotion -Contraction and relaxation cycle of capillary sphincters • Causes blood flow in capillary beds to constantly change routes
Veins • Collect blood from capillaries in tissues and organs • Return blood to heart Veins vs. Arteries • Are larger in diameter • Have thinner walls • Carry lower blood pressure
1. Venules: – – 3 Vein Categories very small veins collect blood from capillaries 2. Medium-sized veins: – – thin tunica media and few smooth muscle cells tunica externa with longitudinal bundles of elastic fibers 3. Large veins: – – – have all 3 tunica layers thick tunica externa thin tunica media
Valves in the Venous System Vein Valves Folds of tunica intima Prevent blood from flowing backward Compression pushes blood toward heart Figure 21 -6
Blood Distribution Heart, arteries, and capillaries: 30– 35% of blood volume Venous system: 60– 65% Figure 21 -7
Venous Blood Distribution • 1/3 of venous blood is in the large venous networks of the liver, bone marrow, and skin
Cardiovascular Physiology Figure 21 -8
Cardiovascular Regulation • Maintains capillary blood flow in peripheral tissues and organs
Capillary Blood Flow • Equals cardiac output • Is determined by: – pressure and resistance in the cardiovascular system
Measuring Pressure • Blood pressure (BP): – arterial pressure (mm Hg) • Capillary hydrostatic pressure (CHP): – pressure within the capillary beds • Venous pressure: – pressure in the venous system PLAY Inter. Active Physiology: Cardiovascular System: Measuring Blood Pressure
Viscosity • R caused by molecules and suspended materials in a liquid • Whole blood viscosity is about 4 times that of water
Turbulence • Swirling action that disturbs smooth flow of liquid • Occurs in heart chambers and great vessels • Atherosclerotic plaques cause abnormal turbulence
Pressures in the Systemic Circuit • Systolic pressure: – peak arterial pressure during ventricular systole • Diastolic pressure: – minimum arterial pressure during diastole • Pulse pressure: – difference between systolic pressure and diastolic pressure • Mean arterial pressure (MAP): MAP = diastolic pressure + 1/3 pulse pressure
Abnormal Blood Pressure • Hypertension: – abnormally high blood pressure: • greater than 140/90 • Hypotension: – abnormally low blood pressure
Venous Return • Amount of blood arriving at right atrium each minute • Determined by venous pressure • Low effective pressure in venous system • Low venous resistance Is assisted by: – muscular compression of peripheral veins – the respiratory pump • Compression of skeletal muscles: – pushes blood toward heart (one-way valves)
Capillary Exchange • Vital to homeostasis • Moves materials across capillary walls by: – diffusion, filtration, and reabsorption
5 Diffusion Routes 1. Water, ions, and small molecules such as glucose: – – diffuse between adjacent endothelial cells or through fenestrated capillaries – diffuse through channels in cell membranes 2. Some ions ( Na+, K+, Ca 2+, Cl—): 3. Large, water-soluble compounds: – pass through fenestrated capillaries 4. Lipids and lipid-soluble materials such as O 2 and CO 2: – diffuse through endothelial cell membranes 5. Plasma proteins: – cross endothelial lining in sinusoids
Capillary Filtration Figure 21 -11
Capillary Exchange • At arterial end of capillary: – fluid moves out of capillary – into interstitial fluid • At venous end of capillary: – fluid moves into capillary – out of interstitial fluid
The Transition Point • Between filtration and reabsorption – is closer to venous end than arterial end • Capillaries filter more than reabsorb • Excess fluid enters lymphatic vessels
4 Functions of Blood and Lymph Cycle 1. Ensures constant plasma and interstitial fluid communication 2. Accelerates distribution of nutrients, hormones, and dissolves gases through tissues Transports insoluble lipids and tissue proteins that can’t cross capillary walls 4. Flushes bacterial toxins and chemicals to immune system tissues
Capillary Dynamics • Hemorrhaging: – reduces CHP and NFP – increases reabsorption of interstitial fluid (recall of fluids) • Dehydration: – increases BCOP – accelerates reabsorption • Increase in CHP or BCOP: – fluid moves out of blood – builds up in peripheral tissues (edema)
KEY CONCEPT • Blood flow is the goal • Total peripheral blood flow equals cardiac output • Blood pressure overcomes friction and elastic forces to sustain blood flow • If blood pressure is too low: – vessels collapse, blood flow stops – tissues die • If blood pressure is too high: – vessel walls stiffen, capillary beds may rupture
How do central and local control mechanisms interact to regulate blood flow and pressure in tissues?
Tissue Perfusion • Blood flow through the tissues • Carries O 2 and nutrients to tissues and organs • Carries CO 2 and wastes away • Is affected by: – cardiac output – peripheral resistance – blood pressure
3 Regulatory Mechanisms • Control cardiac output and blood pressure: 1. Autoregulation: • causes immediate, localized homeostatic adjustments Neural mechanisms: • respond quickly to changes at specific sites 3. Endocrine mechanisms: • direct long-term changes
Vasodilators • • Dilate precapillary sphincters Local vasodilators: – 1. 2. 3. 4. accelerate blood flow at tissue level Low O 2 or high CO 2 levels Low p. H (acids), Nitric oxide (NO) High K+ or H+ concentrations Chemicals released by inflammation (histamine) 5. Elevated local temperature
Patterns of Cardiovascular Response • Blood, heart, and cardiovascular system: – work together as unit – respond to physical and physiological changes (e. g. , exercise, blood loss) – to maintain homeostasis
Blood Distribution during Exercise Table 21 -2
3 Effects of Light Exercise 1. Extensive vasodilation occurs: – increasing circulation 2. Venous return increases: – with muscle contractions 3. Cardiac output rises: – due to rise in venous return (Frank– Starling principle) and atrial stretching
5 Effects of Heavy Exercise 1. Activates sympathetic nervous system 2. Cardiac output increases to maximum: – about 4 times resting level 3. Restricts blood flow to “nonessential” organs (e. g. , digestive system) 4. Redirects blood flow to skeletal muscles, lungs, and heart 5. Blood supply to brain is unaffected
Training and Cardiovascular Performance Effects of Exercise Regular moderate exercise: lowers total blood cholesterol levels Intense exercise: can cause severe physiological stress Table 21 -3
Responses to Blood Loss Figure 21 -17
Responses to Severe Blood Loss • Also called hemorrhaging • Entire cardiovascular system adjusts to: – maintain blood pressure – restore blood volume • To prevent drop in blood pressure: 1. carotid and aortic reflexes: • increase cardiac output (increasing heart rate) • cause peripheral vasoconstriction Sympathetic nervous system: • triggers hypothalamus • further constricts arterioles • venoconstriction improves venous return
3 Short-Term Responses to Hemorrhage • To prevent drop in blood pressure: 1. carotid and aortic reflexes: • increase cardiac output (increasing heart rate) • cause peripheral vasoconstriction 2. Sympathetic nervous system: • triggers hypothalamus • further constricts arterioles • venoconstriction improves venous return 3. Hormonal effects: • increase cardiac output • increase peripheral vasoconstriction (E, NE, ADH, angiotensin II)
Shock • Short-term responses compensate up to 20% loss of blood volume • Failure to restore blood pressure results in shock PLAY Circulatory Shock
4 Long-Term Responses to Hemorrhage • Restoration of blood volume can take several days: 1. Recall of fluids from interstitial spaces 2. Aldosterone and ADH promote fluid retention and reabsorption 3. Thirst increases 4. Erythropoietin stimulates red blood cell production
What are the principle blood vessels and functional characteristics of the special circulation to the brain, heart, and lungs?
Blood Flow to the Brain • Is top priority • Brain has high oxygen demand • When peripheral vessel constrict, cerebral vessels dilate, normalizing blood flow
Stroke • Also called cerebrovascular accident (CVA) • Blockage or rupture in a cerebral artery • Stops blood flow
Blood Flow to the Heart • Through coronary arteries • Oxygen demand increases with activity • Lactic acid and low O 2 levels: – dilate coronary vessels – increase coronary blood flow • Epinephrine: – dilates coronary vessels – increases heart rate – strengthens contractions
Heart Attack • A blockage of coronary blood flow • Can cause: – – angina tissue damage heart failure death
Blood Flow to the Lungs • Regulated by O 2 levels in alveoli • High O 2 content: – vessels dilate • Low O 2 content: – vessels constrict Pulmonary Blood Pressure : • In pulmonary capillaries: – is low to encourage reabsorption • If capillary pressure rises: – pulmonary edema occurs
Circulation Patterns 3 Distribution Patterns: 1. Peripheral artery and vein distribution: is the same on right and left, except near the heart 2. The same vessel: may have different names in different locations 3. Tissues and organs usually have multiple arteries and veins: vessels may be interconnected by anastomoses 21 -18 Figure
The Pulmonary Circuit Figure 21 -19
The Pulmonary Circuit 1. Deoxygenated blood arrives at heart from systemic circuit: – – passes through right atrium and ventricle enters pulmonary trunk 2. At the lungs: – – CO 2 is removed O 2 is added 3. Oxygenated blood: – – returns to the heart is distributed to systemic circuit
