Question
Chapter 19.5, Problem 30AYP
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The vascular spasm and two factors that determine vascular spasm. Also, determine the source of endothelin and thromboxanes.
Introduction:
Blood is a significant component of the cardiovascular system. This cardiovascular system also consists of blood vessels and heart, and it is used to connect several tissues of the body.
