Stels [109]

Answer:

The correct answer is - increase: constriction of the arterioles.

Explanation:

When the physical activity is decreased by the tissues of the muscle, the oxygen concentration in the tissue increases which leads to the constriction of the arterioles.

It takes place in order to decrease blood flow and blood pressure as oxygen requirement is less in the tissue in decreased physical metabolic activity. The constriction of arterioles results in more resistance to decrease the blood flow in capillaries.
