Question

Blood flow through capillary beds: Group of answer choices a)increases peripheral resistance due to the narrow diameter of these vessels. b)appears as pulsing spurts due to the higher pulse pressure than is present in veins. c) is increased by parasympathetic innervation. d) is minimal when the tissue it supplies is at rest.

Answer 1

The answer is letter A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Increases peripheral resistance due to the narrow diameter of these vessels.

The blood flow trough the capillary beds reaches almost every cell in the body and is controlled to divert blood according to the body's needs. After oxygen is removed from the blood, the deoxygenated blood flows to the lungs, where it is reoxygenated and sent through veins back to the heart.
