contraction:
a. takes place at the SA node.
, b. requires neural input.

d. The left ventricle must contract with more force in order to send blood to the body's
extremities. - CORRECT ANSWER-Consider the mammalian heart. Why is the muscular wall of
the left ventricle thicker than that of the right ventricle?
a. The ventricle wall must be thicker to inhibit diffusion between the right and left ventricle.
b. The left ventricle has more nerve endings for contraction, and more muscle mass must be
there to accommodate the extra neurons.
c. This difference stems from the fact that frogs have a thicker left ventricular muscle mass.
d. The left ventricle must contract with more force in order to send blood to the body's
extremities.
