Question
Poiseuille's (pwah-ZAYZ) law explains why this process causes a marked decrease in the total peripheral resistance. For 10 points each:
[10m] Name this process, which occurs cutaneously as a major mechanism of heat dissipation. Beta-2 receptors lower the diastolic pressure by stimulating this process.
ANSWER: vasodilation [accept answers indicating the dilation or widening of blood vessels; DO NOT REVEAL, but prompt on smooth muscle relaxation]
[10e] Vasodilation and vasoconstriction are mediated by, respectively, relaxation and contraction of this tissue, which, unlike a related tissue subtype, is involuntary and lacks cross-striations and sarcomeres.
ANSWER: smooth muscle [prompt on muscle]
[10h] The excessive vasodilation seen in conditions like sepsis and ana·phyl·axis can cause this specific type of shock, in which blood pools in the vessels and peripheral tissues, decreasing perfusion to vital organs.
ANSWER: distributive shock [prompt on septic or anaphylactic shock by asking “what more general type of shock is that?”]
