MULTIPLE CHOICE ||




1. The apex of the heart is formed by the
|| || || || || || || | .
a. tip of the left ventricle
|| || || ||



b. tip of the right atrium || || || ||



c. right atrium and right ventricle || || || ||



d. left atrium and left ventricle
|| || || ||




ANSWER: A ||



The heart’s apex, or lower portion, is formed bythe tip of the left ventricle. The apex lies
|| || || || || || || || | || || || || || || || || ||



just above the diaphragm, between the fifth and sixth ribs, in the midclavicular line.
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||




OBJ: Identifythe surfaces of the heart.
|| | || || || ||




2. The left atrium receives blood from the
|| || || || || || .
a. pulmonary veins |



b. aorta
c. pulmonary arteries |



d. inferior vena cava || ||




ANSWER: A ||



The left atrium receives freshly oxygenated blood from the lungs via the right and left
|| || || || | || || || || || || || || || ||



pulmonary veins. ||




OBJ: Identifyand describe the chambers of the heart and the vessels that enter or leave each.
|| | || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||




3. The anterior surface of the heart consists primarily of the
|| || || || || || || || || .
a. left atrium ||



b. right atrium ||



c. left ventricle ||



d. right ventricle ||




ANSWER: D ||



The front (anterior) surface of the heart lies behind the sternum and costal cartilages.
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||



It is formed by portions of the right atrium and the left and right ventricles. However,
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||



because the heart is tilted slightly toward the left in the chest, the right ventricle is the
|| || || || || | || || || || || || || || || || ||



area of the heart that lies most directly behind the sternum.
|| || || || || || || || || ||




OBJ: Identifythe surfaces of the heart.
|| | || || || ||




4. Blood pressure is determined by
|| multiplied by || || || || .
a. stroke volume; heart rate || || ||



b. heart rate; cardiac output || || ||



c. cardiac output; peripheral vascular resistance || || || ||



d. stroke volume; peripheral vascular resistance || || || ||




ANSWER: C ||



Blood pressure is equal to cardiac output multiplied by peripheral vascular resistance.
|| || || || || || || || | || ||

, OBJ: Identify and explain the components of blood pressure and cardiac output.
|| | || || || || || || || || ||




5. The right atrium receives venous blood from the head, neck, and thorax via the ,from
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || |



the remainder of the body via the , and from the heart via the
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || .
a. coronarysinus; superior vena cava; inferior vena cava | || || || || || ||



b. superior vena cava; coronarysinus; inferior vena cava || || || | || || ||



c. inferior vena cava; superior vena cava; coronary sinus || || || || || || |



d. superior vena cava; inferior vena cava; coronary sinus || || || || || || |




ANSWER: D ||



The right atrium receives blood low in oxygen from the superior vena cava, which
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||



carries blood from the head and upper extremities; the inferior vena cava, which
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||



carries blood from the lower body; and the coronary sinus, which is the largest vein
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||



that drains the heart.
|| || ||




OBJ: | | Identifyand describe the chambers of the heart and the vessels that enter or leave each.
| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||




6. The heart is divided into
|| || || || chambers but functions as a || || || || -sided pump. ||



a. two; four ||



b. three; two ||



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 separates the right and left atria. The interventricular septum
|| || || || || || || || || || ||



separates the right and left ventricles. The septa separate the heart into two functional
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||



pumps. The right atrium and right ventricle make up one pump. The left atrium and
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||



left ventricle make up the other.
|| || || || ||




OBJ: Identifyand 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 to the left side of the heart. This is called the pulmonary circulation. The right
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||



side of the heart is a low-pressure system.
