They may be characterized by long-range bulk forces, such as gravity or the electromagnetic forces, and internal forces, which are caused by internal stresses induced by vis ...

Effects Of Microgravity on the Circulatory System
... • Is felt when Standing and Sitting too fast • Baroreceptors are trying to re-adapt • When an astronaut returns to Earth and blood rushes to his/her legs, the vessels might respond not by constricting, to force the blood back up, but by dilating further resulting in less blood in the astronaut’s upp ...

Arterial blood pressure
... It is produced mainly in the arterioles. It is determined by 3 factors: (a) The radius (or diameter) of the vessel. (b) Blood viscosity. (c) The length of the vessel. • Mainly and only the TPR can be determined by the arteriolar diameter. ...

... Blood plasma and interstitial fluid are almost identical in composition except for the presence of considerable amounts of protein in plasma and very little in the interstitial fluid. With plasma on one side and interstitial fluid on the other side of a membrane made up of a capillary wall, we find ...
