Question

A man has just learned that he has a blockage in one of his arteries. Which of the statements is true regarding this blockage? This blockage will likely increase the resistance to flow in his circulatory system, and as a result, will decrease the rate of blood flow. This blockage will likely decrease the resistance to flow in his circulatory system, and as a result, will increase the rate of blood flow. This blockage will likely increase the resistance to flow in his circulatory system, and as a result, will increase the rate of blood flow. This blockage will likely decrease the resistance to flow in his circulatory system, and as a result, will decrease the rate of blood flow.

Answer 1

The correct answer is statement A. This blockage will likely increase the resistance to flow in his circulatory system, and as a result, will decrease the rate of blood flow.

Explanation:

The blockage of the arteries leads to the resistance to blood flow in the circulatory system and will decrease the blood flow rate in the arteries which can lead to heart stroke in an individual.

The resistance of flow is resistance or prevention of moving fluid or blood flow. This resistance causes slower movement in the blood flow.

Thus, the correct answer is statement A.
