What is local myogenic spasm?
Muscle Spasm, this would be referring to when a blood vessel is broken, the response to fix it would be vasoconstriction. A myogenic spasm would aid in the loss of blood by briefly constricting the muscle where the broken blood vessel is located.
Of all the factors that can affect blood flow to a particular organ the most effective and easiest to control from moment to moment is?
Blood vessel diameter is the most effective and easiest factor to control from moment to moment for regulating blood flow to a particular organ. By constricting or dilating the blood vessels, the body can quickly adjust the amount of blood flowing to an organ based on its needs.
Do blood vessels increase in size to lose heat?
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.
What is the medical term meaning expansion of a blood vessel?
Dilation of a blood vessel is the term for physiologic widening of the vessel. Abnormal widening of the blood vessel through a weakening of the wall is known as aneurysm.Dilation of a blood vessel means widening of the vessel.

If you rupture a blood vessel can you die?
Yes. It depends on the blood vessel and where it is, but yes a rupture to a blood vessel can kill you. A blood vessel is more likely to "pop" or rupture if it has an aneurysm, which is a local weakness where the blood vessel has stretched from the pressure of the blood. This is more likely to result in death if it is in a large blood vessel or in a critical location, such as the aorta or a vessel in the brain.
Does veins function as blood reservoirs whenever blood pressure increases by venous walls constricting?
true
