Answer 1

Answer:

b.  High Blood Pressure. Decreased Blood Flow

This is because excessive salt in the body causes high blood pressure (hypertension) that results into stiff and narrow blood vessels and decreases blood flow to other organs. To overcome the supply of less blood to the organs, the heart pump blood with more intensity that further increases blood pressure.
