Respuesta :

I believe the answer is D

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

When the blood reaches the arteries which is having blockage then the speed of the blood slows down as there is hindrance in the natural flow of the blood through the blood vessels.

The pressure increases as the diameter of the blood vessel decreases due to the blockage in the arteries.

In this case blood thinners can be used for the smooth flow of the blood through the blood vessels.
