1. Choose all that apply: Hydraulic pressure... a. is measured with the units "mm Hg" b. is the force that moves blood forward through the blood vessels. c. decrease with distance from the heart d. is exerted against the walls of blood vessels 2. Complete the following statement. choose all that apply: Resistance.... a. is due to friction between the moving blood and the stationary vessel wall b is doubled when the radius of a vessel is doubled c. increases when the radius of the vessel increases d. increases when blood pressure increases e. increases when viscosity increases 3. Which will have the greatest influence on flow in a vessel? a. decreasing length by 1 unit b. decreasing radius by 1. unit c. decreasing viscosity by 1 unit d. all have the same effect on flow
