Blood Pressure Project

You will be making a flow chart of how the kidneys, brainstem, heart, and arteries affect blood pressure. On your chart you will need to use arrows to demonstrate how the different organs and systems affect each other in controlling the blood pressure. You may use the sheet provided, enlarge the pictures, or use poster board. Also, list the different classes of antihypertensive medication, and include them in your flow chart. The purpose of this project is for you to tie in how blood pressure is controlled along with other function in the body. Start early as this may take you some time, but will be worth how well you will understand it. Feel free to be creative with color & your presentation since we will display these for the class.
