This is why the arterioles have the highest pressure drop.

But she knew that the blood inside those veins and arterioles could no longer flow.

He had no circulation because his arterioles didn't line up.

There, arterioles control the flow of blood to the capillaries.

It is continuous with the smooth muscles of the arterioles.

This is especially relevant in arterioles of the body.

When arteries get very small, they are called arterioles.

These arterioles are less than 100 m in diameter.

It affects the small blood vessels (arterioles) in all organs.

In the arterioles blood pressure is lower than in the major arteries.

In theory, this phenomenon could cause extensive damage to the vessel wall, particularly of arterioles.

Thus, small arteries and arterioles are the main regulators of Total peripheral resistance.

Mean blood pressure drops over the whole circulation, although most of the fall occurs along the small arteries and arterioles.

About 70% of pressure drop occurs in small arteries and arterioles.

Arterioles respond to metabolic stimuli that are generated in the tissues.

Throughout the body, it is a potent vasoconstrictor of arterioles.

Arterioles can become permeable resulting in compromise of the blood brain barrier.

However, this assumption fails when considering flows within arterioles.

The blood from arterioles goes into the capillaries.

The sympathetic nervous system activates the smaller arterioles, including terminals.

Up to 60 arterioles may enter each adrenal gland.

Arterioles also constrict and dilate in response to different chemical concentrations.

The smooth muscle walls of the arterioles relax allowing increased blood flow through the artery.

Once in circulation, the crystals get stuck in tiny blood vessels called arterioles.

The aorta leads to smaller arteries, arterioles, and finally capillaries.
