I just looked at the veins in my elbow with nothing but a thin layer of skin shielding them and then i bent my elbow and this thought came to me. Do our blood vessels get constricted when we bend our knees or elbows? If i kept my elbows constantly bent would my hands eventually stop receiving blood?
You know when you bend a hose that’s turned on and the water stops coming out? That’s kind of what i mean by this concept.
In: Biology
Our arms an legs bend, not fold. When a hose folds it cuts the liquid supply, when it bends the flow is uninterrupted.
There is too much going on in the limbs with bone, muscle, adamantium, cartilage, etc, to fold.
