c. four;,two
d. four;,three
ANSWER:,C
The,heart,has,four,chambers:,two,atria,and,two,ventricles.,The,right,and,left,sides,of,the,heart,
are,separated,by,an,internal,wall,of,connective,tissue,called,a,septum.,The,interatrial,septum,s
eparates,the,right,and,left,atria.,The,interventricular,septum,separates,the,right,and,left,ventric
les.,The,septa,separate,the,heart,into,two,functional,pumps.,The,right,atrium,and,right,ventricl
e,make,up,one,pump.,The,left,atrium,and,left,ventricle,make,up,the,other.
OBJ:,Identify,and,describe,the,chambers,of,the,heart,and,the,vessels,that,enter,or,leave,each.
7. Stimulation,of,alpha1,receptors,results,in .
a. increased,heart,rate
b. peripheral,vasoconstriction
c. constriction,of,bronchial,smooth,muscle
d. increased,force,of,myocardial,contraction
ANSWER:,B
Alpha1,receptors,are,found,in,the,eyes,,blood,vessels,,bladder,,and,male,reproductive,organs.,
Stimulation,of,alpha1,receptor,sites,results,in,constriction.
OBJ:,Compare,and,contrast,the,effects,of,sympathetic,and,parasympathetic,stimulation,of,the,heart.
8. Which,side,of,the,heart,is,a,low-pressure,system,that,pumps,venous,blood,to,the,lungs?
a. Left
b. Right
ANSWER:,B
The,job,of,the,right,side,of,the,heart,is,to,pump,unoxygenated,blood,to,and,through,the,lungs,t
o,the,left,side,of,the,heart.,This,is,called,the,pulmonary,circulation.,The,right,side,of,the,hearti, s
