(a)
What do barorecpetors do?
(a)
Functions of the cardiovascular system
delivering oxygen and nutrients
carrying hormones
removing waste products

cardiac output= stroke volume + heart rate
cardiac output= stroke volume - heart rate
cardiac output= stroke volume / heart rate
cardiac output= stroke volume x heart rate

What are the characteristics of veins?
thinner muscle/ elastic fibres
blood is at low pressure
carries blood to the heart
contain valves
have a wider lumen than arteries
What are the characteristics of arteries?
have the highest pressure
more elastic layer to cope with pressure
smaller lumen
smooth inner layer
carry blood away from the heart
What are the characteristics of capillaries?
wide enough to allow one red blood cell through at a time
allows gaseous exchange
What is blood pressure?
(a)
What is the blood pressure equation?
(a)
What does the oxyhaemoglobin dissociation curve show?
(a)
