Options for the question have not been given. They are as follows:

blood vessel length

blood viscosity

blood vessel diameter

blood colloid osmotic pressure

Answer:

blood colloid osmotic pressure

Explanation:

Peripheral resistance is the resistance to blood flow by blood vessels.
It is directly proportional to blood vessel length as more the distance to travel, more will be the resistance.
It is also directly proportional to blood viscosity as more energy is required to push viscous material.
It is indirectly proportional to blood vessel diameter. More the diameter of the vessel, easier it is for the blood to pass.
However, it does not depend on blood colloid osmotic pressure. Colloid osmotic pressure is created by the protein components of blood and they do not have any direct impact on blood flow.

Which state of a dead body is caused by the lack of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to the muscles?

Ket [755]

Answer:

__Rigor mortis__________ is caused by the lack of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to the muscles

Explanation:

The rigor mortis corresponds to the stiffness of the muscles (they cannot contract or elongate) due to the lack of ATP, where I fixed the bridges between actin and myosin. This event happens when the oxygen transporting organs stop working.
