The rate at which blood flows through the human body changes in response to many factors. Which statement describes one of these factors and its effect on blood flow? A. A high viscosity of blood causes an increased resistance in the blood vessels and leads to slow blood flow. B. A low blood pH decreases the rate of diffusion through the blood vessels and leads to slow blood flow. C.
