A woman has been standing in one place without moving for a long time. You walk by and notice that her ankles are swollen. What is a likely explanation for this observation?
A) Since the woman has not flexed her leg muscles, blood has not moved upward through the veins so stays pooled at her ankles.
B) The woman's blood pressure has likely increased because of inactivity, and thus the blood has pooled at the her ankles.
C) Since the woman hasn't flexed her leg muscles, blood has not moved upward through the arteries so stays pooled at her ankles.
D) The woman's heart rate has likely increased because of inactivity, and thus the blood has pooled at her ankles.
