is a genetic mutation that mutates the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein(CFTR).

walls contract pushing blood into the aorta and throughout the body (Thibodeau‚ 2008). Homeostasis is your body’s ability to maintain an internal environment that is constant‚ no matter what is happening outside of it. The body has a lot of responsibility‚ like blood pressure‚ temperature‚ and things like glucose levels even. Blood pressure can be regulated through homeostasis (Thibodeau‚ 2008). Homeostasis hinders organs from exerting so much‚ thereby preventing disturbance to metabolism and other

Define the following terms and state how each relates to systemic arterial blood pressure: cardiac output and total peripheral resistance. Stroke Volume- the amount of blood pumped out of the ventricle during a single heartbeat. End Systolic Volume- the amount of blood remaining in the ventricle at the end of ventricle systole.
