7 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Patterns in Blood Pressure and Blood Flow Blood pressure is the force that blood exerts on the walls of arteries, capillaries, and veins. Blood pressure drops dramatically as blood moves through the capillaries, because the total cross-sectional area of blood vessels in the circulatory system increases greatly. The drop in blood pressure decreases the rate of blood flow to allow sufficient time for gases, nutrients, and wastes to diffuse between tissues and blood in the capillaries. Falling blood pressure is detected by baroreceptors in the walls of the heart and the major arteries.

9 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Patterns in Blood Pressure and Blood Flow When baroreceptors detect a major decrease in blood pressure, they trigger electrical signals that change the heart’s output and vessel diameter: (1)Cardiac output is increased by an increase in both heart rate and the amount of blood pushed out by the ventricles. (2)Arterioles serving the capillaries of noncritical tissues such as the skin and intestines are constricted to divert blood to more critical organs. (3)The veins are constricted, shifting blood volume toward the heart and arteries to maintain blood pressure and flow to vital organs.
