Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Poiseuille law describes the relationship among blood flow, pressure, and resistance.

Answer: B 
 Increased heart rate from increased volume is related to preload, which is the volume of blood in the ventricle before contraction.

Answer: C 
 The law of Laplace describes the relationship of wall tension, intraventricular pressure, internal radius, and wall thickness.

Answer: D 
 Sliding filament theory describes the cycles of attachment, movement, and dissociation of thin filaments during the attachments of actin to myosin.

Answer: E 
 The Frank-Starling mechanism describes the length-tension relationship of cardiac muscle.
