Textbook Question
Chapter 18, Problem 9CYR
Mark the following statements as true or false. If a statement is false, correct it to make a true statement.
a. The sympathetic nervous system increases blood pressure in the short term by increasing cardiac output and peripheral resistance.
b. A sudden increase or decrease in blood pressure triggers the baroreceptor reflex, which is mediated by the medulla and the autonomic nervous system.
c. Hormones that decrease blood volume and blood pressure include antidiuretic hormone and aldosterone.
d. Angiotensin-II is a chemical that produces profound vasoconstriction.
e. The kidneys control blood pressure directly through adjustment of blood volume.

D. Increase Arterial Afterloada
Which of the following statements is false? a. The sympathetic nervous system releases epinephrine and norepinephrine, which are positive chronotropic and inotropic agents. b. The endocrine system regulates cardiac output through chronotropic and inotropic hormones and through hormones that regulate water balance .c.

Blood pressure increases with increasing constriction of the peripheral arteries c. Increasing sympathetic outflow increases blood pressure d. The kidney does not participate in controlling blood pressurearrow_forwardChanges in blood pressure occur throughout the day. Short term mechanisms, like the baroreceptor reflex, maintain a steady flow of blood to the tissues to sustain life despite postural changes. However, there can be elevations of blood pressure orchestrated by the nervous system. Describe an example where the nervous system causes changes in the normal functioning of the circulatory system.arrow_forward
