VASCULAR DISTENSIBILITY
The distensibility of arteries allows them to accommodate the pulsatile output of the heart and average out pressure pulsations, which provides smooth, continuous flow of blood through the small blood vessels of the tissues.The distensibility of arteries allows them to accommodate the pulsatile output of the heart and average out pressure pulsations, which provides smooth, continuous flow of blood through the small blood vessels of the tissues.The distensibility of arteries allows them to accommodate the pulsatile output of the heart and average out pressure pulsations, which provides smooth, continuous flow of blood through the small blood vessels of the tissues.Veins are even more distensible than arteries, allowing them to store large quantities of blood that can be called into use when needed.
At the end of the lesson student should able to learn about:
- Vascular distensibilty.
- Arterial pressure Pulsations.
- veins and their functions.
