I was doing e-mcat #7 and the question regarding which would have the lowest blood pressure. The choices were A) Heart B) Arteries C) Arteriole and D) Capillaries. I got the question right because I knew it from reading but I was hesitating cause I remembered that Pressure equals force divided by area. Wouldn't capillaries, the lowest area have the highest pressure? Or is the diminishing force a stronger influence on the pressure. Or am I just being an idiot...
Thanks for the help!
