A couch potato eats lots of pizza, chips, and hamburgers and never exercises, and develops arteriosclerosis, which includes hard

ening of the arteries. If he were to exercise, how would his exercising blood pressure compare to that of a healthy person? How would his or her exercising total peripheral resistance compare to that of a healthy person? Explain your answers.

Answer:

The exercising blood pressure of the couch potato would be greater in comparison to that of a healthy individual because in the case of a couch potato the arterial walls are declining in radius. Due to this, there is a greater peripheral resistance because of the small radius and corresponding resistance to the flow of blood.  

A healthy individual presumably does not possess an identical accumulation of plaque as the couch potato does. Thus, their blood vessel is larger, resulting in less peripheral resistance and less resistance to the flow of blood.

The adrenal medulla secretes epinephrine during sympathetic stimulation. Why epinephrine would increase the sympathetic response
user100 [1]

Answer: Because epinephrine activates the fight or flight response, related to the sympathethic response in the body.

Explanation:

The function of the Autonomic Nervous System is the regulation of the system cardiovascular, digestion, respiration, body temperature, metabolism, exocrine glands, and therefore keep the internal environment constant (homeostasis). While sympathetic activity increases in stress, the activity parasympathetic predominates during rest and satiety. The adrenal medulla originates from the neural crest and is composed of neuroendocrine specialized cells and are responsible for the production of catecholamines.

Catecholamines are dopamine, adrenaline, and noradrenaline (epinephrine and norepinephrine). Epinephrine prepares muscles, lungs, and heart for more intense activity, in situations of stress. It promotes the increase in the force of contraction in the muscles and increases in the heart rate. It also leads to increased blood pressure and bronchodilation, for greater availability of O2.
