Assuming depoits is deposits, if there are "deposits" in the arteries, it restricts the flow and depending on how thick the deposit is, very little blood gets through. Imagine a fireman using the usual hose to kill a fire. Then imagine that he replaces that hose with a garden, say about 5/8 thich. The same water pressure and the same amount of water is still there but very little water gets through.

Same with deposits. The chamber is smaller. Now you have all kinds of problems, not to mention high blood pressure, poor circulation, etc., etc., etc., etc.

How would deposit on the walls of arteries affect the flow of blood moving through the body?

Do arteries contain more oxygen or carbon dioxide than veins?

Arteries carry blood away from the heart and veins carry blood into the heart. Blood moving from the heart to the lungs through the pulmonary artery has less oxygen than blood moving from the lungs to the heart through the pulmonary vein, but most arteries carry oxygen-rich blood with little carbon dioxide, and most veins carry deoxygenated blood with carbon dioxide and other wastes.


Why do you think the heart needs the coronary arteries to supply it with blood when blood is always flowing through the heart's chambers?

The chambers of the heart function as a pump; they do not utilize the blood that passes through because it is moving far too quickly and turbulently. Blood must run through capillaries at lower speeds/volumes in order to be used by cells. The coronary arteries branch repeatedly to produce a vast network of capillaries that supply the cardiac muscle cells.


What do arteries contain that prevent the back flow of blood?

Nothing, it is only pressure that keeps blood moving in the right direction in arteries. Veins have valves that prevent backflow of blood, but arteries do not.


What is the difference between elastic arteries muscular arteries and arterioles relative to location histology and functional adaptation?

Elastic (conducting) arteries are the large arteries close to the heart that expand during systole, acting as pressure reservoirs, and then recoil during diastole to keep blood moving. Muscular (distributing) arteries carry blood to specific organs; they are less stretchy and more active in vasoconstriction. Arterioles regulate blood flow into capillary beds.

Why are valves present in veins but now in arteries?

valves are only present in veins to stop the blood to move backwards through the vein but in arteries the muscle puts alot of pressure on the blood which stops it from moving in the wrong direction

What is the effect of a non-moving charge on an electric field?

A non-moving charge does not affect the electric field directly, but it can still interact with other charges in the field through electrostatic forces.


In which direction is blood most likely to travel within the human body?

Blood is most likely to travel in a circular direction within the human body, moving from the heart to various organs and tissues through arteries, then returning to the heart through veins.


What changes are heard with when Doppler effect occurs?

When the Doppler effect occurs, changes in pitch and frequency can be heard. For example, as a sound source moves towards an observer, the perceived pitch is higher, and as it moves away, the perceived pitch is lower. This effect is commonly experienced with sirens on moving vehicles or with objects moving through the air.


What is the effect of balanced forces on an object that is not moving?

A group of balanced forces adds vectorially to zero, so has no effect on any object, whether it's moving or not moving.
