) through a vessel (
arteries
)
View source
Hydrostatic
pressure
Pressure generated by gravity and the effect of the
height
of a column of fluid at the
bottom
of that column
View source
Hydrostatic
pressure
Increases
with the
height
of the column of fluid

Hydrostatic
pressure is only an issue in
air
, not in water

For a
large
dinosaur, pumping blood to the head would require an enormous heart, tremendous blood pressure, and huge muscular blood vessels
View source
Proposed solutions for dinosaur circulatory system
Be
aquatic
Auxiliary hearts
Keep the head
horizontal
View source
Keeping the head
horizontal
does not violate what we know about circulation and is supported by
anatomical
evidence
