Question 1 Not yet graded / 0 pts
Anatomy of the Heart and Vessels
1. T or F: The cardiovascular system is the study of the organs of the body.
2. T or F: The tough, thick sac that encloses the heart and anchors it to the diagram is the pericardium.
3. T or F: The abdominal cavity contains the heart.
4. Which layer of the heart is continuous with the blood vessels linings?
5. T or F: The left ventricle faces anteriorly, towards the sternum.
6. Describe the location of the heart to the diaphragm.
7. The two upper chambers of the heart are called_____________.
8. The two lower chambers of the heart are called _______________.
9. What is the purpose of the fossa ovalis in a fetus?
10. Label all heart chambers and valves.
11. What is the purpose of the mitral valve?
12. What is the purpose of veins?
13. True or False: Veins are primarily responsible for the vessel’s ability to control peripheral resistance.
Your Answer:
1. False
2. True
3. False
4. Endocardium
5. False
6. The diaphragm is located inferior to the heart. (The heart is located superior to the diaphragm.)
7. Atria
8. Ventricles
9. It allows fetal blood to move directly from right to left atrium, bypassing he undeveloped lungs. The fossa ovalis closes during birth so that the
lungs can receive oxygen once the baby is born.
10. Labeled
11. The mitral valve (bicuspid) controls the flow of blood from the left atrium into the left ventricle.
12. Veins carry blood back to the heart.

1. False- it is the study of the heart, blood and vessels.
2. True
3. False- pericardial cavity inside the thoracic cavity
4. Endocardium
5. False- the right ventricle faces anteriorly (closest to the sternum).
6. The diaphragm is located inferior to the heart. (The heart is located superior to the diaphragm.)
7. Atria

12. Veins carry blood back to the heart.
13. False- the arterioles.
Question 2 Not yet graded / 0 pts
Anatomy of the Heart and Vessels
14. How does the contraction and relaxation of the arterioles help to control blood pressure?
15. What does compliance mean?
16. What are the three layers of a vessel?
17. True or false: Only arteries contain a tunica media.
18. Capillaries are interconnected to form _____________.
19. Label all the blood vessels which supply blood to the heart. It is required for you to recognize the orientation of the heart in the picture. For
example, what is the artery highlighted in blue in the figure below?
20. The aortic arch becomes the __________as it moves inferiorly.
21. What are the three branches off the aortic arch?
22. Label all major branches to/from the heart.
23. What is unique about the Circle of Willis?
24. Know general location of Circle of Willis in relation to its position in the brain.
