What effect do you think obesity would have on blood flow?

Many ways. First, with substantial fat deposits you have to grow essentially miles of extra blood vessels to supply the tissues with oxygen. Second, the added pressure of tissue against the vessels increases pressure like standing on a water hose. Third, with time and the added blood pressure, the walls of the heart thicken like any other muscle will do when challenged. These thicker walls do not allow the heart to pump as much blood with each beat. Thus leading to many many other secondary health problems.

Why would blood vessel radius have a larger effect on the body than vessel length?

Blood vessel radius has a larger effect on the body because changes in radius significantly impact blood flow resistance, which affects blood pressure regulation and delivery of oxygen and nutrients to tissues. Vessel length, on the other hand, has a smaller direct effect on blood flow resistance and overall cardiovascular function.

Which would have the greater effect on vascular resistance?

Vasoconstriction would have a greater effect on increasing vascular resistance compared to vasodilation. When blood vessels constrict, their diameter decreases, leading to increased resistance to blood flow. Conversely, vasodilation results in an expansion of blood vessel diameter, reducing resistance.
