Blood is essential for many organisms, such as humans and animals, for its important function of transporting substances (food, oxygen), vitamins, waste (carbon dioxide), hormones, etc. to all tissues and cells of the body.
1) Blood volume
If the blood volume increases ==> the blood flow increases.
2) Viscosity of blood
If we have an increase in blood viscosity ==> we have a decrease in blood flow
3) Peripheral Resistance
If there is an increase in peripheral resistance ==> the blood flow decreases
4) Diameter of blood vessels
If we have an increase in diameter of
blood vessels ==> decreased peripheral resistance ==> increased blood flow
5) Blood pressure
If the blood pressure increases ==> the blood flow increases.
6) In case of diseases
In the case of atherosclerosis or acute coronary syndrome ==> blood flow decreases.
7) Physical excercises:
During physical exercises ==> the heart rate increases ==> the blood flow increases.

Answer:
Elastic fibers are made of elastin and microfibrils, that are elastic protein structures. The proteins can be stretched and resume normal shape. These fibers are found in parts of the body such as arteries, skin, lungs, connective tissue and heart that require some stretching. Marfan syndrome affects the elastic connective tissues causing symptoms like dilation of the aorta that doesn't resume normal lumen diameter (aortic aneurysm), and curving of the spine (scoliosis).
The lungs are unable to stretch and resume shape normally and this affects the respiratory system. The subjects will suffer from shortness of breath, wheezing and chest pain.
The sheath/endoneurium of neurons is connective tissue. This part of a neuron allows signals to travel effeciently along the axon of the neuron. This means that a person with Mafran syndrome has a slower response to stimuli that ordinary persons.
<span>Healing wounds, especially full-thickness wounds, require an adequate supply of nutrients. Wounds require calories, fats, proteins, vitamins and minerals, and adequate fluid intake. Calories provide energy for all cellular activity, and when in short supply in the diet, the body will utilize stored fat and protein.Sufficient dietary calories maintain padding and ensure that dietary protein and fats are available for use in wound healing. In addition, adequate levels of protein are necessary for repair and replacement of tissue. Increased protein intake is particularly important for wounds where there is significant tissue loss requiring the production of large amounts of connective tissue.</span>
