<prompt> Ohopnea in hea failure develops due to:Reservoir function of pulmonary veinsReservoir function of leg veinsReservoir function of pulmonary aeriesReservoir function of leg aeries  <response>: Ohopnea is shoness of breath that occurs when a person is supine. Gravitational forces cause fluid to become sequestrated in the lower legs and feet when the person is standing or sitting. When the person assumes a recumbent position fluid from the legs leg veins and dependent pas of the body is mobilized and redistributed to an already distended pulmonary circulation.
