Blood is supplied to the brain. Too much of a blood supply to the brain could lead to damage and too little blood flow can result in strokes. Nasal bleeding is usually caused by polyps or trauma.?æ

If you press too hard, you'll pinch the blood vessel shut and cut off the blood flow. And without blood flow there'll be no pulse there to count.
What is an involuntary response to thermoregulation when you are too hot?
Increasing blood flow to the skin
May you use bandage in a sentence?
Yes.Ex:Hurry and bandage the cut before it bleeds too much!
What should you do if the wound bleeds throughout the emergency bandage?
The first thing to try: get something like a rolled-up sock. Stick it right in the middle of the blood on the bandage, put another bandage on top of it, and torque it down good and tight. If the wound is on a part of the body you can raise higher than the heart, do that too.
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 can too much fat do?
Fats are deposited in the blood vessels as plaque, which blocks the flow of blood and causes heart problems.

Blood will coagulate and form clots when exposed to air, if the blood flow isn't too excessive.
What is the function of valves in blood vessels?
A valve fills when the blood flows back, so it cannot flow back too far (into the heart).
When the systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure are too close together what might that indicate?
Reduced blood flow ... but its usually an artifact of measurement rather than real.
Why does the heart has valves?
Valves are the "doors" which allow the proper amount of blood into each ventricle of the heart so it does not "explode" or push too much into the body. When high blood pressure occurs the culprit can be a defective valve that is leaking or failing to open and close properly. Not many people have that type of high blood pressure. There are many types of high blood pressure which doctors can determine by listening to the valves in the heart or elsewhere.
Why are the heart valves not very stretchy?
Because if they were, then too much blood would fill the left atrium (lower left), and it would overflow, causing too much blood to flow through the veins which could result in them breaking.
