Vascular can mean two separate things. It can relate to the vessels of the body that carries blood and lymph such as the the arteries and the veins.
It can also refer to plant tissues that are highly specialized in carrying water, dissolved nutrients and food from one part of a plant to another. Plants that have xylem and phloem are vascular like ferns and seed bearing plants. Bryophytes, or mosses, do not have these abilities.
because vascular tissue is a blood vessel
Blood vessel
Vascular resistance is influenced by factors such as vessel radius, vessel length, blood viscosity, and vessel compliance. Changes in these factors can impact the resistance to blood flow in the vasculature, affecting blood pressure and overall circulatory function.
Yes, vascular is defined as "related to blood vessel" so a vascular disease can be any disease that is affected by the blood vessel of which there is many. Here is a website to help you inform yourself of the many vascular diseases and my best to your mother. www.webmd.com/heart-disease/vascular-disease

Arterioles are the most important type of blood vessel in regulating vascular resistance. They are able to constrict or dilate, controlling the flow of blood to various tissues and organs, therefore playing a critical role in regulating blood pressure and overall blood flow in the body.

Hemostasis is the name of the response to broken blood vessels. This response occurs when blood ruptures or leaks out of the body's vessels. The body reacts with a vascular plugging effect that clogs the leakage of the blood vessel.

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.
