When arterial blood pressure increases, the rate of myocardial energy requirement tends to decrease.

Medicine
1 answer:
Firdavs [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The answer is B. False

Explanation:

When arterial pressure increases, this places a greater burden on the heart, at the time of cardiac contraction, to maintain blood circulation. This greater burden on the heart forces it to a greater consumption of energy by the myocardium and to a hyperplasia, which leads sooner or later to a cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure if it is not properly managed. Hypertensive patients are initially asymptomatic, so periodical control of them is recommended and more if there are personal factors such as obesity, sedentary lifestyle, smoking among others.

Explain how and why drinking water affects:<br> (A) Blood plasma<br> (B) Blood plasma osmolarity
Oxana [17]

Answer:

(A) - The volume of the blood plasma increases on overhydration and decreaes on dehydration.

(B) - Osmolality of blood increases with the dehydration and decreases with the overhydration.

Explanation:

If the levels of drinking water is increased, then the plasma becomes more dilute and the plasma volume increases because <u>the water will be reabsorbed more and which as a result reduces plasma concentration of the solutes and increases volume of plasma.</u>

Plasma osmolality measures electrolyte-water balance of the body. <u>As mentioned, above on overhydration, the plasma concentration of the solutes decraeses which also decreases osmolality. So, Osmolality of blood increases with the dehydration and decreases with the overhydration. </u>Increased osmolality in blood stimulate the secretion of antidiuretic hormone which results in the increased water reabsorption and therefore, more concentrated urine and hence blood plasma with less concentration.
