Answer 1

During exercise, there is an increase in total blood flow due to a faster and stronger heartbeat and because blood is removed from the “reservoirs” of the veins to the active circulation. There is also a redistribution of blood. In contrast, less total blood flow is distributed to the abdominal organs, slowing digestive processes; less is transported to the kidneys, which decreases urine output to maintain blood volume and blood pressure.
