| 21. | Blood travels through the arterioles and moves into the capillaries where gas exchange can occur.
|
| 22. | Atherosclerosis, by definition, affects only medium and large arteries ( excluding arterioles ).
|
| 23. | Immediately following the arterioles are the capillaries.
|
| 24. | Another determinant of vascular resistance is the " pre-capillary arterioles ".
|
| 25. | The straight arterioles are peritubular capillaries, specifically those that surround the loop of Henle.
|
| 26. | In the arterioles, capillaries, and venules the Womersley numbers are less than one.
|
| 27. | Affects capillaries, venules, or arterioles.
|
| 28. | Proposed procedures for the neurodegeneration are than Narrower arterioles and wider venules have been reported.
|
| 29. | Arterioles have the greatest collective influence on both local blood flow and on overall blood pressure.
|
| 30. | Constriction of the afferent arterioles causes a decrease in the intraglomerular pressure, reducing GFR proportionally.
