Question

Which of the following accurately describes Poiseuille's law?a. blood flow is not related to resistance. b. if resistance increases, flow increases. c. if resistance increases, flow decreases. d. viscosity of the blood is not related to flow. e. pH of the blood influences flow.

Answer 1

Answer: Option C.

if resistance increases, flow decreases.

Step-by-step explanation:

if resistance increases, flow decreases describe Poiseuille's law because it explain the relationship between fluid flow and the viscosity of the fluid, length and width of the turning. The law describe fluid flow is related to length and radius of tubing and viscosity. Increase in resistance will result in decrease in flow rate because flow and resistance are reciprocally related in one way or the other.
