Question

Peripheral resistance includes all of the following EXCEPT:
A)blood viscosity.
B)blood vessel length.
C)blood type.

Accepted Answer

Peripheral resistance refers to the resistance that the blood encounters as it flows through the blood vessels. This resistance is determined by factors such as blood viscosity, blood vessel length, and vessel radius. Blood type, however, does not affect peripheral resistance.
