Practice 2: True of False (if false explain why)
Mammals are able to control the amount of blood flowing through
capillary beds using sphincters which close certain routes through
the vasculature. True or false: If a sphincter is located at the
beginning of capillary beds, closing of the sphincters causes more
blood to go through smaller diameter vessels. Bypassing the
capillary bed would tend to promote retention of heat.
