Regulating Peripheral Resistance - Part 2

In this episode, Leslie Samuel continues discussing peripheral resistance, focusing on blood viscosity and vessel length. Blood viscosity, influenced by the ratio of red blood cells to plasma, affects resistance, with dehydration increasing viscosity and anemia decreasing it. Blood vessel length also impacts resistance, with weight gain adding vessel length and increasing resistance. The episode concludes with a reminder to manage weight and an invitation to explore more resources on the Interactive Biology website.
