If you become dehydrated, your blood volume and blood pressure will decrease. What will your cardiovascular system do to compensate for the drop in pressure? Assume flow is constant. Vasodilate the arteries Decrease stroke volume Vasoconstrict the arteries Decrease the heart rate Increase parasympathetic stimulation

Dehydration reduces blood volume. How would this affect cardiac output? Explain. Describe how each of the following could impact stroke volume. 1. Damage to the conduction system of the heart. 2. A blockage in one of the coronary arteries.

Cardiac output is equal to the heart rate times the stroke volume. If you lose a large amount of blood, what might the body do to compensate? CO = SV x HR Increase the heart rate Decrease the heart rate Decrease body temperature Increase body temperature
How could the heart compensate to maintain proper blood flow with a leaky atrioventricular valve? (Choose all that apply) - Increase the force of contraction - Increase heart rate - Decrease viscosity of blood - Increase diameter of arteries How could the heart compensate to maintain proper blood flow with a constricted semilunar valve? (Choose all that apply) - Increase the force of contraction - Increase heart rate - Decrease viscosity of blood - Increase diameter of arteries
