Answer:

Blood vessels are constricting causing greater peripheral resistance

Explanation:

When the body experiences a significant amount of blood loss, the body will constrict the blood vessels to compensate for the blood loss. This results in the blood flow and pressure remaining in at a normal level. This does also result in your a decrease of the amount of blood your heart pumps to areas outside of the centre or your body, which causes the skin to lose heat and become paler.
