Blood is pumped through blood vessels all over our bodies because it carries the nutrients, mineral, and oxygen that every cell in our bodies need. It also carries out the metabolic waste away from its cell of origin.
Blood vessel is a tube-like structure in our body like vein, artery, and capillary. It carries blood through the tissues and organs within the body.
At the onset of a muscle contraction, the presence of calcium triggers the opening of the Na-K channels in the membrane. Potassium is a calcium inhibitor, so as the potassium flows out of the cell, it eventually reduces the presence of calcium. This causes the closure of the Na-K channel (negative feedback mechanism). In a hypokalemic state, the lack of sufficient K doesn't inhibit the calcium channel, and in turn doesn't properly terminate the muscle contraction at the cellular level.
It seems like it's long term goals.
