A large infusion of red blood cells (and resulting increase in cellular concentration) could increase blood viscosity and bring about a decrease in cardiac output, a decrease in blood flow velocity, and a reduction in peripheral oxygen content - all of which would reduce aerobic capacity (#7). The human heart was not designed to pump this thickened blood throughout the body and, therefore, could lead to a multitude of problems.

What is the effect of increased vessel length on blood flow?
The longer the vessel is the more friction it applies on the passing blood, the less the blood flow is.
What has the most important effect on blood velocity?
Blood viscosity is the most important efect on blood velocity. Viscosity meaning how thin or thick the blood is. Velocity meaning the flow of blood. If the blood is too thick it's velocity will be slow. If the blood is thin, the blood will flow faster.
What effect does dehydration have on blood pressure?
Serious dehydration is a form of hypovolaemic shock and would lower BP.
What does swelling effect in the body system?

What is the blood flow in the body?

How does low blood pressure effect the flow of fluid through the renal tubules?
Low blood pressure means the blood flow through the circulation system has been delayed. As a result, blood flow goes through the Renal tubules will be effected. Blood goes through that tube won't be much. Hence, Blood will be slowed when it passes by the renal tubules.
Does exercise effect memory capacity?
Excersice increases blood flow, more blood Flow to the brain = increased oxygen= increased energy = increased mental Sharpness! :)
