your blood vessels do increase in size after exercise especially our veins becasue they aid heat when our bodie are working and rising in temperature ,that is why we can see our veins come to the surface of our skin more when we have been exercising.
Vasodilation is relaxation of blood vessels leading to increase in lumen size. Vasoconstriction is contraction of blood vessels leading to decrease in lumen size.
Vasodilates them. Arteries increase in diameter size, this reduces the peripheral resistance on the blood. Not necessarily a good thing.
The size of blood vessels varies enormously, from a diameter of about 25 mm (1 inch) in the aorta to only 8 μm in the capillaries.
no
it depends upon the size of blood vessels,some are small in size and some are big,in this situation there is alteration of blood flow,so the speed of blood inside the vessels wont be constant
The smallest blood vessels are called capillaries.
exercise
Blood vessels can form new blood vessels, this is called angiogenesis.
Muscle cells increase in size (hypertrophy) and in number of mitochondria, which are responsible for producing energy. Additionally, exercise can lead to an increase in the concentration of myoglobin, which helps store and transport oxygen in the muscles.
If a blood vessel has a larger diameter then there is an increased rate of blood flowing through that vessel per unit of time. This increased rate causes an increase in heat through the vessel. Thus constricting the diameter of the blood vessel will cause a decrease in the rate of blood flow, causing less heat and therefore increased heat loss.
