Answer:

D. Maintaining blood pressure during a hemorrhage

Step-by-step explanation:

Vasoconstriction is the narrowing of the blood vessels that results in the reduction of blood flow, the resistance of blood increases and the blood pressure goes up. This process is helpful to stabilize blood pressure and to prevent the loss of blood (hemorrhage).

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
