Vascular resistance is a fluid layer in which at a distance δ, viscosity η is a function of δ written as η(δ), and these surrounding layers do not meet at the vessel centre in real blood flow. Instead, there is the plugged flow which is hyperviscous because holding high concentration of RBCs. Thurston assembled this layer to the flow resistance to describe blood flow by means of a viscosity η(δ) and thickness δ from the wall layer. The blood resistance law appears as R adapted to blood flow profile : where Blood resistance varies depending on blood viscosity and its plugged flow
Mass flow action within their cells . Solute flow is driven by a difference in hydraulic pressure created from the unloading of solutes in the sink tissues. That is, as solutes are off-loaded into sink cells (by active or passive transport), the density of the phloem liquid decreases locally, creating a pressure gradient. Mass flow "This article is about the flow of fluids in biological systems. For use of "mass flow" in physics see Fluid Dynamics. For "bulk flow" in physics see Advection. For "protein transport" in cell biology see Bulk movement." Mass flow, also known as “mass transfer” and “bulk flow”,
