Total peripheral resistance __________. View Available Hint(s) Total peripheral resistance __________. .increases as blood vesse
l diameter increases decreases with increasing length of the blood vessel is not a major factor in blood pressure in healthy individuals increases as blood viscosity increases
Vascular resistance is the resistance that a body can be able to resist so that it will be able to push blood to circulatory system and create flow of blood in the body. Vessel radius also affects the total resistance as a result of contact with the vessel wall.
blood vessel radius is inversely proportional to resistance, and directly proportional to blood flow
