For each row, select the correct bolded term for arteries and veins... for example is the pressure in arteries HIGH or LOW? The pressure in veins is For Blank 5 NUte. Ue pressure and flow of each vessel (with a *) cause the lower row features. For example, vessel structure is adapted to compensate for high pressure or low pressure. Arteries Veins *Pressure- high or low? *Pressure- fluctuates or constant? *Flow- good or poor? Diameter- wide or narrow? Tunica media- thick/thin? Valves present- yes or no? Skeletomuscle pump improves flow – Yes or no? Some of these vessels have a lot of elastin - Yes or no?

Which of the following can be included in the description of an artery? Nearly clear Dark blue color Contains valves Thick walls
As blood goes from the left ventricle through the arteries and veins of the human body, both its speed and pressure change. The arteries and arterioles can either constrict, reducing the area, or dilate, increasing the area, in response to certain conditions. Both of these changes can affect blood flow and blood pressure. An artery can also develop a permanent narrow area (stenosis) or a permanent wide area (aneurysm). Both of these changes can have significant health consequences. Suppose that in response to some stimulus a small blood vessel narrows to 90% of its original diameter. If there is no change in the pressure across the vessel, what is the ratio of the new volume flow rate to the original flow rate?A. 0.66 B. 0.73 C. 0.81 D. 0.90
