Blood Vessels—Arterial System  Structure: endothelium, middle, outer layers  Functions  Arteries carry blood away from heart  Arterioles and precapillary sphincters control pressure  Capillaries exchange nutrients, waste, and defensive cells between vessel and tissue

16. Regulation: Nervous and Endocrine Factors  Medulla oblongata signals  Sympathetic nerves: constrict blood vessels, raising blood pressure  Parasympathetic nerves: dilate blood vessels, lowering blood pressure  Hormones: epinephrine (adrenaline)  Local requirements dictate local blood flow  Exercise: increased blood flow and cardiac output

17. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Cardiovascular Disorders  Angina pectoris: a warning  Myocardial infarction/heart attack: permanent cardiac damage  Congestive heart failure: decrease in pumping efficiency  Embolism: blockage of blood vessels  Stroke: impaired blood flow to the brain
