Document Summary

Indicate the influence of exercise on blood pressure and the determination of mean arterial pressure. Discuss the relationship between cardiac structure and function. Outline the manner in which blood is circulated to our bodies as well as the function of various subsections of the circulatory system. Discuss the intrinsic and extrinsic regulation of the cardiac cycle. Discuss those factors controlling blood flow distribution. Outline the factors affecting cardiac output and the influence of exercise on these factors. Indicate those factors responsible for increased cardiac performance during exercise. To understand the relation between cardiac output and oxygen uptake. To be aware of the influence of training on the heart and the cardiovascular system. ~60% of total blood volume in veins at rest b/c the blood pools there. Arteries referred to as resistance vessels b/c they control tpr. Sa node spontaneously depolarizes; signal atria to contract. Av node slows down the signal from the sa node; signals ventricles to contract.
