The velocity of blood flow is the lowest in capillaries because ________.

#Unit 7. System Physiology – Animal
  1. the capillaries have internal valves that slow the flow of blood
  2. the diastolic blood pressure is too low to deliver blood to the capillaries at a high flow rate
  3. the systemic capillaries are supplied by the left ventricle, which has a lower cardiac output than the right ventricle

  4. the total cross-sectional area of the capillaries is greater than the total cross-sectional area of the arteries or any other part of the circulatory system
