The volume of blood that is pumped by the heart every minute
is determined by the equation A) EF = EDV - ESV.
B) CO = HR SV.
C) BP - PR VL.
D) T = PR/2.
E) SV = EDV - ESV. - ANSWER-B
What is the equation relating stroke volume (SV), end-diastolic
volume (EDV), and end-stroke volume (ESV)?
A) SV = EDV - ESV
B) SV = EDV ESV
C) SV = EDV + ESV/3
D) SV = EDV + ESV
E) SV = EDV/ESV - ANSWER-A
, Which of the following describes the effect of end- diastolic
volume on stroke volume?
A) An increase in end-diastolic volume stretches ventricular
muscle cells to lengths greater than optimum, decreasing the
strength of contraction and thereby decreasing stroke volume.
B) An increase in end-diastolic volume stretches ventricular
muscle cells to lengths closer to optimum, increasing the
strength of contraction and thereby increasing stroke volume.
C) A decrease in end- diastolic volume creates a vacuum
drawing more blood into the ventricle increasing stroke volume.
D) A decrease in end- diastolic volume allows ventricular
muscle cells to relax more during diastole, allowing more blood
to return to the heart increasing stroke volume.
E) A decrease in end- diastolic volume allows cardiac muscle
to relax, conserving energy for the next contraction, thereby
increasing stroke volume of that next contraction. - ANSWER-B
Which component of an ECG represents ventricular diastole?
A) T wave
B) QRS complex
C) Q-T interval
D) P-R interval
E) T-Q segment - ANSWER-E
