Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Decreased O₂ in skeletal muscle would produce arteriolar vasodilation. O₂ (oxygen saturation) is an indicator of oxygen levels, and when it is decreased, it signals to the body that there is a need for more oxygen in the tissue. Vasodilation would allow more blood flow into the tissue to bring more oxygen to the area.
