Immersion of a body part in deep water may affect circulatory dynamics because of the effects of which of the following properties of water?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When a body part is immersed in deep water, hydrostatic pressure is exerted on it. This can affect the circulatory dynamics by compressing the blood vessels and slowing down the flow of blood. Buoyancy can also have an effect, but it is less likely to directly affect circulatory dynamics. Viscosity and laminar flow may have some impact on circulation, but they are not specifically related to immersion in water.
