As area increases according to equation of continuity
A1V1= constant
Velocity decreases,
According to bernoullis principle if velocity decreases pressure increases
So the pressure in the aneurism is larger

An aneurism in an artery causes the local cross-sectional area of the blood vessel to increase. How does the pressure in the region of the aneurism compare to the pressure just upstream from the aneurism? Group of answer choices The pressure in the aneurism is smaller.. The pressure in the aneurism is larger. The pressure in the aneurism is the same..

10 Blood flows in an artery of cross sectional area A with a velocity v. The artery then divided into six similar arteries, each of area A/3, the speed of blood in each of these si arteries is A) 3v B) 2v C) v/2 D) v/3
If I increase the cross-sectional area of a blood vessel by a factor of 2,I would expect the pressure within that blood vessel to if everything else were unchanged. OA Half ○ B Quadruple O C Quarter ○ D Triple E Double
at a bifurcation in an artery, you note that the cross-sectional area of each daughter artery is 20% of that for the parent artery. What is the ratio of the transmitted and reflected pressure wave magnitudes assuming the wave velocity co is the same in the parent and daughter arteries?
Question 7 1 pts Which of the following statements is false? An aneurysm in an artery leads to a locally elevated blood pressure. Plaque deposit on an artery or arteriole wall leads to a decreased local blood pressure O Plaque deposit on an artery or arteriole wall causes an increase in local blood pressure and can lead to bursting of that vessel. The speed of the blood increases as it moves through a region of an artery with plaque deposit....

?Blood from a supine patient
flowing through the internal carotid artery is measured to be
42.6 cm/s. The base of the artery measures 4.85 mm and the blood
pressure at this point is

26. The velocity of blood flow is in direct proportion to the total cross-sectional area of the blood vessels b, slower in the arteries than in capillaries because arteries relatively large diameter slower in the veins than in the capillaries because veins diameter slowest in the capillaries b c. have a large d. ecause the total cross-sectional area is the 27. Which of these is NOT a function of lymph nodes a. house B-lymphocytes b. filter lymph d. produce lymphocytes...
Please Explain Why the correct answer is correct
3. Blood flows through an artery with a partial blockage, which narrows the diameter of the blood vessel for a small segment of the total length. How does the pressure in the narrow portion of the blood vessel compare to the pressure just before the partial blockage? Assume that frictional effects have a negligible impact on the situation. a. The pressure is higher in the narrow portion b. The pressure is the...
A medical technician is trying to determine what percentage of a patient's artery is blocked by plaque. To do this, she measures the blood pressure just before the region of blockage and finds that it is 1.20×104 Pa , while in the region of blockage it is 1.15×104 Pa . Furthermore, she knows that blood flowing through the normal artery just before the point of blockage is traveling at 32.0 cm/s , and the specific gravity of this patient's blood...
Arteriosclerotic plaques forming on the inner walls of arteries can decrease the effective cross-sectional area of an artery. Even small changes in the effective area of an artery can lead to very large changes in the blood pressure in the artery and possibly to the collapse of the blood vessel.Imagine a healthy artery, with blood flow velocity ofv0=0.14m/s and mass per unit volume ofρ=1050kg/m3. The kinetic energy per unit volume of blood is given byK0=12ρv20.Imagine that plaque has narrowed an...
