Blood flow reduces when its flow resistance is expanded. Total peripheral resistance is characterized as total blood flow resistance in the systemic circulation. Because of their smaller size and muscle walls the arterioles are effective regulators of blood flow.

Peripheral resistance is the artery's resistance to blood flow. As the arteries restrict the resistance increases and the resistance decreases when they dilate. Three factors influencing peripheral resistance are :

  • Autonomous activity: a sympathetic activity which blocks peripheral arteries.
  • Pharmacological agents: the vasoconstrictor drugs raise resistance while it is reduced by vasodilator drugs.
  • Viscosity of the blood: Higher viscosity enhances resistance.

Answer:

Tropical dry Climate: The weather is sunny pretty much all year. The ocean + the sun allows a tropical place to be great for growing food. Things such as coconuts and mangoes can be found.

icang [17]
You did not included your list of selections.  Some general properties ascribed to DNA are storage and expression of information and variables through mutations.  Replication, Transcription, Translation and Mutagenesis are the major functions of DNA in a cell.  DNA nucleotides contain deoxyribose.  DNA is double-stranded in the conservative mode, the original double Helix remains a complete unit and the new DNA double Helix is produced as a single unit.  In the double=stranded DNA, Hydrogen bonds hold one complimentary strand to the other.  

Hope this helps, I love Science.
