Answer:

b) from a region of high pressure to a region of low pressure

Explanation:

Blood flow is measured in blood volume per unit time. It is the movement of blood through an organ, tissue or vessel. It is initiated when ventricles in heart contract leading to its ejection at high pressure. Major arteries receive this blood and they further transport it at high pressure to smaller arteries, arterioles and capillaries. Hence arteries have thick walls to withstand this pressure. The pressure decreases when blood reaches to veins hence their walls are not that thick.  Hence, blood flows from a region of high pressure to a region of low pressure.

What are valence electrons?
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The simple answer is the electrons in the outermost energy level.

Hydrogen has 1 electron in the outermost energy level.

Magnesium has 2 so this tells you that magnesium has a charge of 2

Oxygen has 6  oxygen has a charge of - 2

Fluorine has 7

For most elements, the electrons in the most outer ring determine the valence of the element.

Notice that the non metals work differently than the metals. Mg may have a charge of 2 and that is the number of electrons in the valence right.

Oxygen is a non metal it has a charge of - 2. It gets 6 electrons by subtracting the number of its charge from 8.
