AB  - The  student  understands  the  homeostatic  role  of  the  cardiovascular  system,  the  basic  principles  of  cardiovascular  transport,  and  the  basic  structure  and  function  of  the  components  of  the  system:Defines  homeostasis.Identifies  the  major  body  fluid  compartments  and  states  the  approximate  volume  of  each.Lists  3  conditions,  provided  by  the  cardiovascular  system,  that  are  essential  for  regulating  the  composition  of  interstitial  fluid  (i.e.,  the  internal  environment).Predicts  the  relative  changes  in  flow  through  a  tube  caused  by  changes  in  tube  length,  tube  radius,  fluid  viscosity,  and  pressure  difference.Uses  the  Fick  principle  to  describe  convective  transport  of  substances  through  the  CV  system  and  to  calculate  a  tissue’s  rate  of  utilization  (or  production)  of  a  substance.Identifies  the  chambers  and  valves  of  the  heart  and  describes  the  pathway  of  blood  flow  through  the  heart.Defines  cardiac  output  and  identifies  its  2  determinants.Describes  the  site  of  initiation  and  pathway  of  action  potential  propagation  in  the  heart.States  the  relationship  between  ventricular  filling  and  cardiac  output  (the  Starling  law  of  the  heart)  and  describes  its  importance  in  the  control  of  cardiac  output.Identifies  the  distribution  of  sympathetic  and  parasympathetic  nerves  in  the  heart  and  lists  the  basic  effects  of  these  nerves  on  the  heart.Lists  the  5  factors  essential  to  proper  ventricular  pumping  action.Lists  the  major  different  types  of  vessels  in  a  vascular  bed  and  describes  the  morphological  differences  among  them.Describes  the  basics  and  functions  of  the  different  vessel  types.Identifies  the  major  mechanisms  in  vascular  resistance  control  and  blood  flow  distribution.Describes  the  basic  composition  of  the  fluid  and  cellular  portions  of  blood.
