Martini PowerPoint ® Lecture Slide Presentation prepared by Dr. Kathleen A. Ireland, Biology Instructor, Seabury Hall, Maui, Hawaii Chapter 21, part 1 Blood Vessels and Circulation
Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Learning Objectives Distinguish among the types of blood vessels. Describe fluid and dissolved material transport into and out of the cardiovascular system. Describe the factors that influence blood pressure and blood pressure regulation. Discuss the mechanisms involved in the movement of fluids between capillaries and interstitial spaces.
Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Learning Objectives Describe how blood flow and pressure in tissues is regulated. Identify the principle blood vessels of each circuit and the areas they serve. Describe fetal circulation patterns and the changes that occur in these patterns at birth and during aging.
