Answer:

D. Decreasing vessel diameter

Explanation:

Cardiac output is the amount of blood pumped per unit time by heart. Increased cardiac output corresponds to increased blood pressure which will result in increased blood flow. In vasodilation the smooth muscles within the blood vessels relax making them wide hence decreasing vascular resistance leading to more blood flow. Decreased blood viscosity will also decrease the resistance to blood flow.

Decreasing vessel diameter will not increase the blood flow, it will rather restrict it because there will be more resistance to passage of blood due to small space.

Answer: Decrease in blood pressure

Explanation:

If there is increase in atrial vessel diameter then, the blood pressure is conversely decreases. Peripheral resistance and increase in blood volume diameter are responsible for higher the blood pressure. The peripheral resistance are responsible for blood flow in the arteries.

There are three sources of the peripheral resistance are:
