Options to the question :
A- blood viscosity
B- osmolarity of interstitial fluid
C- turbulence
D-length of a blood vessel
E- blood vessel diameter
Answer:
Total peripheral resistance is NOT related to B ( osmolarity of interstitial fluid).
Explanation:
Total peripheral resistance( also called systemic vascular resistance) is defined as the total opposition to the flow of blood in systemic circulation. Increase in total peripheral resistance leads to high blood pressure while it's decrease leads to low blood pressure. Factors that contributes to total peripheral resistance in systemic circulation includes:
- blood vessel diameter
- blood viscosity,
- lengthy of a blood vessel and
- turbulence.
