Reynold's NumberHardQuestion 30954

Question

Blood flow in large arteries remains laminar even at high speed because blood has high:
  1. A
    Density
  2. B
    Surface tension
  3. C
    Viscosity
    Correct
  4. D
    Pressure

Correct answer

Viscosity

Explanation

High viscosity increases the denominator in Re = ρvD/η, keeping Re low and flow laminar.
