The answer is True: Vasomotion may lead to the rerouting of blood from one area of the body to another.

Explanation:

  • Vasomotion refers to the rhythmic contraction and relaxation of blood vessel walls, particularly in the microcirculation, which can influence blood flow distribution.
  • This process can cause changes in blood flow patterns, potentially rerouting blood from one area to another based on the body's needs.
  • For example, during exercise, vasomotion can help redirect blood flow to muscles that require more oxygen and nutrients, while reducing flow to areas that are less active.

In summary, vasomotion can indeed lead to the rerouting of blood within the body, making the statement true.
