Cell Signalling and Transduction
If a disease of the blood vessels caused the endothelial cells of the vessel to die, what effect would that have on the cellular activities associated with vasodilation?

Nitric oxide would no longer be produced
Smooth muscle cells could not be made to relax
All of these
It would be more difficult to increase blood flow and reduce blood pressure
