Which of the following accurately identifies metabolic changes due to reduced blood flow?
A) reduction in ATP formation, fall in pH occurs, increased lactic acid formation, increased warmth of the tissues
B) anaerobic metabolism is increased, fall in pH occurs, increased lactic acid formation, increased warmth of the tissues
C) anaerobic metabolism is increased, increased lactic acid formation, reduction in ATP formation, increased warmth of the tissues
D) anaerobic metabolism is increased, fall in pH occurs, increased lactic acid formation, reduction in ATP formation

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Reduced blood flow leads to a decrease in oxygen supply to the tissues, resulting in increased anaerobic metabolism. This leads to increased lactic acid formation, which results in a fall in pH. Additionally, the decrease in oxygen supply can lead to a reduction in ATP formation. Increased warmth of the tissues is not a consistent metabolic change due to reduced blood flow. Therefore, option D best identifies the metabolic changes due to reduced blood flow.
