The relationship of blood flow (Q), resistance (R), and pressure (P) in a vessel can be expressed by which equation?

Option A, Q = P/R

Explanation:

Complete question is

The relationship of blood flow (Q), resistance (R), and pressure (P) in a vessel can be expressed by which equation?

A. Q = P/R.

B. Q = R/P.

C. Q = PQ.

D. P = Q/ R

Solution

As we know that  

Resistance in blood flow is directly proportional to the blood pressure and inversely proportional to the blood flow. This can be represented as  

R ∝ P

R ∝ 1/Q

On combining the above two equations , we will get the following

R ∝ P/Q

R = KP/Q

Where K is the proportionality constant.

Resistance in blood flow arises when the blood vessels constricts or there is some blockage in the blood vessel or wall of the blood vessel creates higher frictional force.

This resistance increases the pressure but the flow reduces.

Hence, option A is correct

imagine a line passing through the center of earth that goes through both the north pole and the south pole. this imaginary line is called an axis. earth spins around its axis, just as a top spins around its spindle. this spinning movement is called earth's rotation. at the same time that the earth spins on its axis, it also orbits, or revolves around the sun. this movement is called revolution.
