Which of the following is not a response to exercise-induced vasodilation?


a. decreased systolic pressure

b. stable or decreased diastolic pressure

c. increased pumping capacity of the heart

d. decreased total peripheral resistance

All these are responses to exercise-induced vasodilation except a decrease in systolic pressure. Systolic pressure will actually increase, sometimes significantly enough to rise to over 200 mmHg during maximal effort.
