    mmHg) – (26 mmHg + 0 mmHg) NFP = +10 mmHg Because the value of NFP is positive, filtration occurs at the arterial end of the capillary. Moving along the capillary, the BHP becomes lower as blood moves along the pressure gradient of the vascular system, but the other three pressures will not fluctuate. At about the midpoint of the capillary network, the pressures that promote filtration are equal to the pressures that promote reabsorption. Moving away from the midpoint toward the venous end of the

    “Briefly Describe the Importance of the Interaction Between the Respiratory and Cardiovascular Systems in Maintaining the Body’s Internal Balance”

    The respiratory system role is to allow the exchange of gases oxygen and carbon dioxide between the atmospheric air, blood and tissue cells. It also helps adjust the pH of body fluids. “In addition to gas exchange the respiratory system also plays a role in receptors for the sense of smell, filters inspired air, produces sounds and rids the body of some water and heat in exhaled air”. (Tortora and Derrickson 2006 Pg 918) The most important function of the respiratory system is to supply the blood

    excreting CO2 is the function of the respiratory system (made up of the lungs and chest cavity). The chest cavity containing with the lungs expands and contracts, inhaling external, oxygen rich air and exhaling CO2 rich air. At the microscopic or molecular level, respiration needs to take place within (almost) every cell, for each cell needs its own supply of energy. So the respiratory system collects the oxygen in the lungs, the cardiovas-cular system (heart, blood vessels and blood) transports the
