I need help with a few questions on Exercise 5, Cardiovascular Dynamics & will appreciate ANY help! THANKS! Slight Smile

3. What could cause an increase in the peripheral resistance in a blood vessel

7. What differences would you expect to see between a diseased heart with high peripheral resistance and the healthy heart of
an athlete?
8. What was the effect of increasing flow tube radius on flow rate and flow volume?
9. Which variable had the strongest effect on fluid flow?
10. If the viscosity of blood were to increase, what could you do to keep the flow rate “normal”
11. What would occur if the left side of the heart pumped faster than the right side?

The increased peripheral resistance can be overcome by: (1) increasing the pump’s pressure,
(2) decreasing the pressure in the right beaker, and (3) increasing the radius of the left flow
tube to decrease the pump’s filling time.
