Question
Chapter 24.6, Problem 1MQ
Summary Introduction
Humans and the microbiome present in them share a close association with each other because the microbes living inside the human body are responsible to contribute both for the health and disease of that individual. It is difficult to study the relationship between human microbiome and its effects on health because of the complications surrounding sampling, uncertainty about the contribution of the host’s genetic background, and the limitations of controlling diet and other lifestyle factors.

Note in part (a) that the normal resting value on this pressure–frequency curve is on the steepest, center part of the curve. What is the physiological significance of this?
While downhill skiing, Jerry lost control and appeared to hit into a tree, chest first. The ski patrol that are also certified in EMT reported that Jerry was found with his head cocked at a peculiar angle and it looked like he had a fracture at the position of the C2 vertebra. During triage, Jerry appeared cyanotic and apneic. His heart was still beating, but his pulse was fast and thready.
b) What would be the best possible explanation for the cyanosis?

1) Identify three positions of the patient to obtain a BP.
2) What problems can result from high blood pressure Or (HYPERTENSION)?
3) What problems can result from low blood pressure OR (HYPOTENSION)?
4) What IS the effect of exercise on BP? How does the body benefit from this change in BP during exercise?
5) How would the BP of an anxious patient visiting a doctor be different than if the patient is calm?
6) In atherosclerosis, plaque builds up inside the arteries. How would this affect BP? Is this an example of hypertension or hypotension?
