Question
Chapter 34.6, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
What is the function of control mechanism as a drop in blood pH causes increase in heart rate.
Introduction:
Respiration is the process in which inhalation of oxygen and exhalation of carbon dioxide takes place. The oxygenated blood pumped into whole body through heart and deoxygenated blood is collected by heart and is pumped back to lungs.

- You are designing the arterial blood vessels that go to the kidney. The first part of kidney function involves a filtration mechanism that filters blood. To maximize this filtration mechanism, you want to maximize blood flow to the kidney. Using Poiseuille’s Law (on page 1), explain how you would construct the arterial circuit so that blood flow is maximized. Assume that blood viscosity (h) will not be changed.arrow_forwardExplain the effect that decreasing temperature had on the frog heart. How do you think the human heart would respond?

- Explain in one two lines, how body temperature affects the pulse rate?arrow_forwardMedical evidence shows that a small change in the radius of an artery can indicate a large change in blood flow. For example, if one artery has a radius only 5% larger than another, the blood flow rate is 1.22 times as large. Further information is given in the table below. Increase in radius Times greater bloodflow rate 5% 1.22 10% 1.46 15% 1.75 20% 2.07 (a) Use the average rate of change to estimate how many times greater the blood flow rate is in an artery that has a radius 8% larger than another.
