The smaller the radius of a vessel, the greater the resistance.As the radius of a vessel increases, the resistance decreases.As the resistance decreases, the blood flow increases.The larger the radius of a vessel, the less the resistance.Blood flow to an organ will decrease with vasoconstriction.Blood flow to an organ will increase with vasodilation
  • Complete each sentence by dragging the proper label into the appropriate position.
  • Fill in the blanks with the terms provided. Not all terms will be used.
  • Select the correct word from the list to complete each sentence regarding the relationship between blood flow, vessel radius, and resistance.
  • Place a single word into each sentence to make it correct.
Capillary beds have precapillary sphincters at the junction of capillaries and the met arteriole.Constriction of these sphincters reduces the blood flow through their respective capillaries.When this occurs, blood is diverted to tissue or organs elsewhere.When the sphincters are open, blood will fill the capillary bed.

Blood flow is directly related to the pressure gradient. Thus, as the blood pressure gradient increases, total blood flow increases, and as the blood pressure gradient decreases, total blood flow lessens(assuming resistance remains the same). An increase in cardiac output will increase the pressure gradient, and a decrease in cardiac output will decrease the pressure gradient.
