30-150um
terminal arterioles resistance is
10-30um
what is hyperemia
blood flow increases in relation to metabolic activity of a tissue / organ
ph decreases due to what
lactate production during exercise and dilation of blood vessels

what is the splanic circulation
liver , gi tract, pancreas and spleen
what is the total blood volume in the splanchnic reigon
20-25%
constriction in splanich circulation can add blood volume into the circulation - increasing what
