Which risk increases when blood flow transitions beyond Reynolds number 2300?

A)Increased nutrient delivery efficiency
B)Laminar flow becomes fully established
C)Platelet aggregation against vessel walls
D)Vascular smooth muscle relaxation

💡 Explanation

Disturbed flow arises, creating areas of stagnation because the transition to turbulence reduces the streamlined movement of blood; therefore the risk of platelet aggregation increases due to prolonged contact rather than efficient clearance in laminar conditions.
