Answer:

The correct answer will be- arteries→capillaries→veins

Explanation:

The circulation of blood in the closed circulatory system flows through blood vessels. These blood vessels show structural differences in response to the pressure exerted by the blood on the surrounding medium.

The blood pressure varies in the circulatory system because the heart pumps the blood with a greater force, so the blood vessel called arteries which carries the blood from the heart posses thicker walls.

The blood pressure reduces until the blood reaches the organs, the blood pressure reduces. Thus the blood in the capillaries has lower pressure.

When blood exits from the organs back to the heart, then the blood pressure is highly reduced as a result, the veins carry the blood with lower pressure.

Thus, arteries→capillaries→veins are the correct answer.

The steps in the hemostasis process are (1) platelets become sticky and form a platelet plug, (2) walls of a damaged blood vesse
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: D. 2-1-3

Explanation:

Hemostasis can be define as a process which causes bleeding to stop when an injury occurs .This process is carried out through this 3 steps;

Vascular Spasm or Vasoconstriction : In this step, the body constrict the blood vessel to reduce the flow of blood to the affected area.

Formation of the Platelet Plug : In this step the body respond by activating platelets which encounters the affected area, becomes sticky and forms a plug that serves as a barrier against blood flow.

Coagulation: Involves the formation of a blood clot. It is a complex process that has Fibrin as it's end product. Fibrin is more like a glue that holds the platelets plug together.

The Fibrin clot gains strength and then dissolves when the walls of the affected blood vessels close and heals.
