Essay Questions
1) Tom loves to soak in hot tubs and whirlpools. One day, he decides to raise the temperature in his hot tub
as high as it will go. After a few minutes in the very warm water, he feels faint, passes out, and nearly drowns.
Luckily, he is saved by an observant bystander. Explain what happened physiologically.
Answer: In response to the high temperature of the water, Tom's body shunted more blood to the superficial
veins to decrease body temperature. The dilation of the superficial veins caused a shift in blood to the arms
and legs and resulted in a decreased venous return. Because of the decreased venous return, the cardiac
output decreased and less blood with oxygen was delivered to the brain. This caused Tom to feel lightheaded
and faint, nearly causing his demise.
