Results in new capillaries and an increased blood supply
A
aerobic exercise
B
anaerobic exercise
C
both
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -During activity, blood pressure increases as the demand for oxygen to be delivered to the working muscles rises. In order to meet the rise in demand of oxygen to be delivered, an increase in capillaries occurs.

Detailed explanation-2: -Skeletal muscle blood flow increases dramatically, while blood flow to other tissues, especially the abdominal viscera and kidneys, is reduced. During heavy exercise, the vast increase in cardiac output is directed almost exclusively to contracting skeletal and cardiac muscles.

Detailed explanation-3: -Exercise hyperemia refers to the increase in skeletal muscle blood flow that occurs during muscular activity.
