The answer is excessive narrowing of blood vessels.

When exposed to the cold, our body tries to reduce its heat loss by tightening the arterioles under the skin (vasoconstriction). This mechanism increases the flow of blood into the deep veins and allows the body to maintain its internal temperature.

In people with Raynaud's disease, this reaction is excessive: the nerves that control the tightening of arterioles are hypersensitive and cause spasm, rather than normal vasoconstriction. When the spasm stops, the arterioles dilate again, restoring blood circulation.

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

secondary succession happens more often because it occurs after some kind of distribution that still leaves the soil intact (mudslide,bulldozing,shoveling,or scraping off an area)

Explanation:

Answer:

Secondary succession

Explanation:

Succession may be defined as the change in the biological species community with time. Primary succession and secondary succession are two main types of succession.

Secondary succession is the succession that occurs most often in nature because this succession occurs when the climax community is disturbed by the natural and man made disturbances. The secondary succession has almost every thing to start the new succession again in the destroyed land.\

Thus, the correct answer is secondary succession.
