Which increased risk occurs when tendon capillaries narrow?

💡 Explanation

Reduced capillary diameter decreases oxygen supply; therefore, it compromises collagen production needed for tendon strength, due to disrupted cellular respiration rather than increased neuronal activity or direct blood cell effects, because the diminished blood flow impairs structural protein synthesis.
