| 31. | Nitric oxide is a vasodilator causing arterioles to expand and draw in more blood . }}
|
| 32. | Variations in the flow of blood that circulates by arterioles are capable of responses in endothelium.
|
| 33. | Interlobular and afferent arterioles show fibrinoid necrosis and intimal hyperplasia and are often occluded by thrombi.
|
| 34. | By inhibiting an enzyme, ACE inhibitors relax the muscles around small arteries ( arterioles ).
|
| 35. | The afferent arterioles, then, enter Bowman's capsule and end in the glomerulus.
|
| 36. | Each arcuate artery supplies several interlobular arteries that feed into the afferent arterioles that supply the glomeruli.
|
| 37. | The afferent arterioles form the glomerulus ( network of capillaries enclosed in Bowman's capsule ).
|
| 38. | Unlike most other capillary beds, the glomerulus drains into an efferent arteriole rather than a venule.
|
| 39. | Blanching of the skin often occurs when STS is injected into arterioles ( small artery branches ).
|
| 40. | The juxtaglomerular cells are very sensitive to endogenous pressors and control blood flow through the afferent arteriole.
