Q

During a game of basketball vascular shunting takes place.
Describe what happens to blood flow during vascular shunting.

Blood flow is increased to active areas/blood is redistributed to muscles/away from inactive areas
Increased by vasodilation/ widening of the internal diameter/widening of the lumen of the blood vessel
reduced blood flow to inactive area
reduced by vasoconstriction/ narrowing of the internal diameter/narrowing the lumen of the blood vessel.
