right atrium
left atrium
right ventricle
left ventricle
Which is the correct direction of blood flow?
right atrium -right ventricle -pulmonary artery
right atrium - left atrium - pulmonary artery
left ventricle - pulmonary artery - aorta
left ventricle - left atrium - aorta
In the heart, the mixing of oxygen-rich and oxygen-poor blood is prevented by the:
mitral valve.
tricuspid valve.
septum.
pericardium.
Which of the following are the smallest of the blood vessels?
arteries
veins
lymphatic cells
capillaries
The function of valves in the human circulatory system is to
stimulate the heartbeat.
accelerate the flow of blood.
prevent the backward flow of blood.
serve as a cushion to prevent friction.
Which of the following is true about blood pressure?
It is not affected by atherosclerosis.
It is lower in veins than in arteries.
It drops a great deal when traveling through arteries.
Diastolic pressure is higher than systolic pressure.
A blood pressure reading of 120/80
indicates a diastolic blood pressure of 120.
is an indication of hypertension in a resting adult.
indicates a systolic blood pressure of 120.
is determined by using a sphygmomanometer to measure blood pressure in the veins
When the heart contracts, it produces a wave of fluid pressure in the
veins
arteries
capillaries
pharynx
When the blood pressure is constantly too high, the condition is known as
a heart attack.
hypertension.
atherosclerosis.
a stroke.

1-2 liters
4-6 liters
8-10 liters
12-14 liters
Which of the following blood cells contain hemoglobin?
red blood cells
white blood cells
platelets
all of the above
Aerobic exercise helps a person:
achieve recommended body weight.
perform temporary stressful activities.
prevent cardiovascular disease.
all of the above
The heart rate:
averages 70-80 beats per minute in the apparently healthy.
can decrease 10-20 beats per minute after 6-8 weeks of aerobic training.
of athletes can be as low as 45 beats per minute.
All of the above
Blood ejected each beat of the heart is called the:
capillary load.
stroke volume.
cardiac output.
MHR
Oxygen and other nutrients are picked up by muscle tissue from:
arteries.
arterioles.
capillaries.
venules.
Energy necessary for cell function is produced by the cell:
cytoplasm.
mitochondria.
nucleus.
ibosomes.
What is the most important supply that the body needs that is carried by blood?
leukocytes
oxygen
carbon dioxide
carbohydrate
If a person has a stroke volume of 70 ml and a heart rate of 80, what is their cardiac output?
70/80
5600
.875
10
Which of the following are not improved by exercise training?
cardiac output
stroke volume
maximum heart rate
resting heart rate
What is the maximum cardiac output of a 20 year old male with a stroke volume of 70 ml?
14000
1400
200
3.5
Which following components of blood are responsible for the delivery of oxygen?
red blood cells
white blood cells
platelets
plasma
Hematocrit is best described as:
the amount of blood in the body
the percentage of blood platelets in the blood
the percentage of blood that is made up of red blood cells
the amount of oxygen found in the blood
Red blood cells are red because:
They carry our blood
They are deoxygenated
They contain hemoglobin
hey are dead
Erythropoietin (EPO) can be produced using each of the following methods EXCEPT:
blood doping
altitude training
exercising
all of the above produce EPO
The top number when measuring blood pressure is called the:
systolic pressure
diastolic pressure
cardiac output
hematocrit level
Which of the following statements is true?
blood pressure decreases during exercise
cardiac output decreased during exercise
heart rate increases during exercise
all of the above are true

trachea
diaphragm
alveoli
bronchioles
The exchange of gases occurs in the area of the lungs known as the:
alveoli sacs
bronchioles
trachea
mouth
Spirometry directly measures:
Capacity of lungs
Volume of air inhaled and exhaled
Residual air
None of the above
Which of the following is defined as the amount of air that can be forced out of the lungs after a maximal inspiration?
total lung capacity
vital capacity
reserve volume
tidal volume
What is the term used to describe the amount of air still left in the lungs after an all out expiration?
tidal volume
residual volume
expiratory reserve volume
inspiratory reserve volume
The average total lung capacity for an adult is:
6L
4L
4.8L
