Heart Function and Circulatory Systems

The video tutorial explains the structure and function of the human heart, comparing it with the circulatory system in fish. It covers the single circulatory system in fish and the double circulatory system in humans, highlighting the advantages of the latter. The video details the heart's structure, including its chambers and valves, and describes the flow of blood through the heart. It also discusses the role of coronary arteries and the pacemaker in regulating heart function.

What is the primary function of the heart as introduced in the video?

• To pump blood around the body

• To produce blood cells

• To store oxygen

• To filter blood

In fish, where does the blood collect oxygen?

• In the liver

• In the gills

• In the lungs

• In the heart

What is a major drawback of the single circulatory system in fish?

• Blood does not reach the organs

• Blood becomes too oxygenated

• Blood loses pressure after passing through the gills

• Blood travels too fast

How many times does blood pass through the heart in the human double circulatory system?

• Once

• Twice

• Three times

• Four times

What is the main advantage of the double circulatory system in humans?

• It allows blood to travel rapidly to body cells

• It decreases oxygen levels in the blood

• It reduces blood pressure

• It increases the size of the heart

How many chambers does the human heart have?

• Five

• Four

• Three

• Two

Which blood vessel carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart?

• Vena cava

• Aorta

• Pulmonary artery

• Pulmonary vein

What is the role of the coronary arteries?

• To carry blood to the lungs

• To remove waste from the heart

• To regulate heart rate

• To supply oxygen to the heart muscle

What is the function of the pacemaker in the heart?

• To store oxygen

• To increase blood pressure

• To filter blood

• To control the natural resting heart rate

What can doctors implant if the natural pacemaker fails?

• An artificial lung

• A new heart

• An artificial pacemaker

• A blood filter
