Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During the excitement phase of the sexual response cycle, both males and females experience vasocongestion, which is the engorgement of genital tissues with blood. This leads to physical changes such as erection in males and clitoral swelling in females. Muscle tension, blood pressure increase, and respiration rate increase can also occur in both males and females during this phase. Nipple erection is not a universal response in females during this phase. Psychological reactions can also occur in addition to these physical responses.
