Answer:

A healthy artery is wider and has no blockages. The lumen (which is the hole in the centre of the artery), is open and clear. This means there is more blood flow. An artery of a person suffering from coronary heart disease is often blocked, usually by a fatty deposit. This means the blood does not flow as well. (See diagram, in which I would draw two arteries, one with a blockage of fatty deposit, one clear and healthy).

What general part of the general circulation would you find the "doldrums"?

lutik1710 [3]

I think the Belt of the inter-tropical convergence zone is the general part of the general circulation found on the doldrums. This is a belt of low pressure which circles the Earth generally near the equator where the trade winds of the Northern and southern Hemispheres converge. Mainly characterized by convective activity which generates often vigorous thunderstorms over large areas.
