question: Question 7

 

Please match the following vessel layers to their description:

Group of answer choices

tunica interna (intima)
[ Choose ] This muscular layer is only found in capillaries this layer has elastic fibers & smooth muscle, which is regulated by the sympathetic nervous system this thick outer layer has fibers (elastic & collagen) that run parallel to the the vessel this layer is the only one found in all vessels; made up of simple squamous epithelium

 

tunica media
[ Choose ] This muscular layer is only found in capillaries this layer has elastic fibers & smooth muscle, which is regulated by the sympathetic nervous system this thick outer layer has fibers (elastic & collagen) that run parallel to the the vessel this layer is the only one found in all vessels; made up of simple squamous epithelium

 

tunica externa (adventitia)
[ Choose ] This muscular layer is only found in capillaries this layer has elastic fibers & smooth muscle, which is regulated by the sympathetic nervous system this thick outer layer has fibers (elastic & collagen) that run parallel to the the vessel this layer is the only one found in all vessels; made up of simple squamous epithelium

Group of answer choices

pressure decreases

 

pressure is held steady

 

pressure increases

 

 

Question 9

 

Please match the following vessels to their description:

Group of answer choices

arteries
[ Choose ] large lumens and valves characterized these vessels elastic conducting and muscular distributing vessels carry blood away from the heart major location of gas and nutrient exchange allow for alternative routes of blood flow

 

veins
[ Choose ] large lumens and valves characterized these vessels elastic conducting and muscular distributing vessels carry blood away from the heart major location of gas and nutrient exchange allow for alternative routes of blood flow

 

anastomoses
[ Choose ] large lumens and valves characterized these vessels elastic conducting and muscular distributing vessels carry blood away from the heart major location of gas and nutrient exchange allow for alternative routes of blood flow
