Local and temporary deficiency of blood, chiefly due to the contraction of a blood vessel is ........................

  • A.Ischemia
  • B.Insulin
  • C.Hemolysis
  • D.Hematuria

Answer: A

The condition is ischemia.

Ischemia is a local and usually temporary shortage of blood supply to a tissue, most often from narrowing or contraction (spasm) of the artery supplying it. Myocardial ischemia, for example, causes the chest pain of angina when the heart muscle gets too little blood during exertion.

Insulin is a hormone, not a condition. Hemolysis is the rupture of red blood cells, and hematuria is the presence of blood in the urine.
