Which statement is NOT true?

A) The resistance to blood flow in the small tibial arteries should be greater than that in the aorta.
B) Normally, at rest no significant pressure gradient is seen between the aorta and the distal tibial arteries.
C) With normal arterial wall compliance, the Doppler spectral waveform from the peripheral arteries of the extremities should be triphasic.
D) During systole and left ventricular contraction, the arterial pulse pressure wave is transmitted through the aorta and into the high-resistance peripheral arterial bed.
