← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when blood viscosity excessively increases inside a human circulatory system?
A)Reduced oxygen delivery to tissues✓
B)Increased red blood cell flexibility
C)Enhanced capillary blood vessel vasodilation
D)Decreased blood protein sedimentation rate
💡 Explanation
Increased viscosity elevates resistance, therefore reducing flow and oxygen transport; this occurs because of Poiseuille's Law rather than increased vasodilation or RBC flexibility, which would lower resistance or improving flow; protein sedimentation is density-related.
