9

How does doubling the radius of a vessel affect flow, assuming other factors constant?

10

What is the primary role of vascular smooth muscle in arterioles?

Feedback

Arterioles are the primary resistance vessels, adjusting flow by changing radius.

NE acts on α receptors causing constriction; epinephrine can also bind α at higher affinity.

Flow is proportional to pressure difference and radius to the fourth power.

MAP is the driving pressure for blood flow in the systemic circulation.

Resistance ∝ 1/r^4; larger radius greatly lowers resistance.

Distribution follows tissue metabolic demand and local autoregulation.

Baroreceptors are located in the carotid sinuses and aortic arch.

Aldosterone promotes Na+ reabsorption and K+ secretion; ANP opposes this.

Flow ∝ r^4, so doubling r increases flow by 2^4 = 16.

Arteriolar smooth muscle controls diameter for resistance and flow regulation.
