Question

issues with your submission. At the level of an individual organ, arteriole vasoconstriction would result in... a) a decrease in baroreceptor activity. b) a decrease in blood pressure within the organ. c) an increase in blood flow to the organ. d) an increase in blood pressure within the organ. Put these events of the baroreceptor reflex in response to a drop in blood pressure in the correct chronological order. Some events may not be used, not all events may be included as choices. Just make sure you do get the correct events in the correct order. (/4 point each) Event #1 Event #2 Event #3 Event #4 a) b) c) d) e) f) g) h) i) arterioles vasoconstrict arterioles vasodilate baroreceptor firing rate changes blood pressure decreases blood pressure increases cardiac center decreases sympathetic nervous system activity to heart cardiac center increases parasympathetic nervous system activity to heart heart rate decreases vasomotor center increases sympathetic nervous system activity to vessels · You've been looking to run some previously FDA approved drugs to search for novel blood pressure medications. Your job is to predict, based on their given mechanism of action, how each of these drugs should impact blood pressure.

Explanation / Answer

Question: At the level of an individual organ, arteriole vasoconstriction would result in.....

Answer: an increase in blood pressure within the organ

Vasoconstriction increases total peripheral resistance and increases blood pressure, vasodilation decreases total peripheral resistance and decreases blood pressure.
