Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The vasculature of the heart shows a strong response to both myogenic and metabolic factors.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Metabolic control involves the relationship between vascular smooth muscle tone and the level of local cellular metabolites. The vascular tone in the brain is the most sensitive to changes in the local metabolite levels, particularly those of CO2 and pH.
