older heart can speed up quickly but cannot pump as much blood as a younger heart
older heart cannot speed up quickly but can pump as much blood as a younger heart
42. When getting old the stiffer arteries are less able to expand when more blood is pumped through them. Thus, blood pressure tends:
to decrease
to increase gradually
to increase
to decrease gradually
43. Factors that contribute to the increased wall thickening and stiffening in aging include:

thrombus formation
thrombus phlebitis
ischemia
All the answers in this question
47. Changes which is not related to Endocrine System in elderly:
the levels and activity of some hormones, produced by endocrine glands, decrease.
growth hormone levels decrease, leading to decreased muscle mass.
aldosterone levels decrease, making dehydration more likely.
