A heart with 4 chambers
A fully developed heart
Nothing
In which of the following vessels is blood pressure the highest
Arterioles
Arteries
Capillaries
Vena cava
The right AV valve is known as the
Bicuspid Valve
Mitral Valve
Tricuspid Valve
Semilunar Valve
Substances tend to leave the bloodstream at the arterial end of the capillary beds because
Blood pressure is higher at the venular end of the capillary
The osmotic pressure of the blood is higher at the venular end of the capillary
The osmotic pressure of the blood is higher at the arterial end of the capillary
Blood pressure is higher at the arterial end of the capillary
The mitral valve is normally closed
When the atrium is contracting
When the ventricle is in systole
When the ventricle is in diastole
By the movement of blood from the atrium to the ventricle
The Brachial Vein
Drains blood from the internal jugular vein, then empties that blood into the superior vena cava
Drains blood from the axillary vein, then empties that blood into the superior vena cava
Drains blood from the popliteal vein, then empties that blood into the external iliac vein
Drains blood from the radial and ulnar vein, then empties the blood into the axillary vein
Arteries
Carry oxygenated blood away from the heart
Carry deoxygenated blood away from the heart
Carry oxygenated blood to the heart
Carry deoxygenated blood to the heart
Which of the following arteries refers to the stomach
Common hepatic artery
Superior mesenteric artery
Inferior mesenteric artery
Left gastric artery
An increase in the parasympathetic system causes
A decrease in heart rate and an increase in cardiac output
An increase in both heart rate and cardiac output
A decrease in both heart rate and cardiac output
An increase in heart rate and a decrease in cardiac output
Which of the following blood vessels carries oxygenated blood
Inferior vena cava
Pulmonary veins
Superior vena cava
Pulmonary artery
Which of the following statements is true about semilunar valves
There are 2 of them, both carry deoxygenated
There is only one and it is called the Aortic Semilunar valve
Pulmonary semilunar valve (deoxygenated) and Aortic semilunar valve (oxygenated)
They are located between the atria and ventricles
Which one of following is true concerning the lub-dub sounds of the heart
The first sound is shorter and sharper and is caused by closure of the semilunar valves; the second sound is longer and louder and is caused by the closure of the AV valves
The first sound is shorter and sharper and is caused by the closure of the tricuspid valve; the second sound is longer and louder and is caused by the closure of the mitral valve
The first sound is longer and louder and is caused by the closure of the AV valves; the second sound is shorter and sharper and is caused by the closure of the semilunar valves
The first sound is longer and louder and is caused by the closure of the tricuspid valve; the second sound is shorter and sharper and is caused by the closure of the mitral valve
Which statement correctly describes the orientation of the heart
Pointed Apex directed towards right hip and base points towards the right shoulder
Pointed Apex directed towards the left hip and base points toward the right shoulder
Pointed Apex directed towards the medial aspect of the body and the base points to the lateral aspect of the body
Pointed Apex directed towards the left hip and the base points towards the left shoulder
What are the 3 tunics of blood vessels starting from deepest to most superficial
Tunic Intima, Tunic externa, Tunic Media
Tunic Media, Tunic Intima, Tunic Externa
Tunic Intima, Tunic Media, Tunic Externa
Tunic Externa, Tunic Media, Tunic Intima
