1. The apex of the heart is formed bythe
f f f f f f f f .
a. tip of the left ventricle

b. tip of the right atrium
f f f f




c. right atrium and right ventricle f f f f




d. left atrium and left ventriclef f f f




ANSWER: A f




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




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

2. The left atrium receives blood from the
f f f f f f .
a. pulmonaryveins f




b. aorta
c. pulmonaryarteries f




d. inferior vena cava f f




ANSWER: A f




The left atrium receives freshlyoxygenated blood from the lungs via the right and left

pulmonary veins.

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




b. right atrium f




c. left ventricle f




d. right ventricle f




ANSWER: D f




The front (anterior) surface of the heart lies behind the sternum and costal cartilages. It is formed
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




by portions of the right atrium and the left and right ventricles. However, because the heart is
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




tilted slightly toward the left in the chest, the right ventricle is the area of the heart thatlies most
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




directlybehind the sternum.

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




b. heart rate; cardiac output f f f




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




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




ANSWER: C f




Blood pressure is equal to cardiac output multiplied byperipheral vascular resistance.

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




the remainder of the body via the
f f , and from the heart via the f f f f f f f f f f f .

c. inferior vena cava; superior vena cava; coronarysinus f f f f f f f




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




ANSWER: D f




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




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




lower body; and the coronarysinus, which is the largest vein that drains the heart.

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




a. two; four f




b. three; two f




c. four; two f




d. four; three f




ANSWER: C f




The heart has four chambers: two atria and two ventricles.The right and left sides of the heartare
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




separated by an internal wall of connective tissue called a septum. The interatrial septum
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




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




ventricles. The septa separate the heart into two functional pumps. The right atrium and right
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




ventricle make up one pump.The left atrium and left ventricle make up the other.

7. Stimulation of alpha1 receptors results in f f f f f .
a. increased heart rate f f




b. peripheral vasoconstriction f




c. constriction of bronchial smooth muscle f f f f




d. increased force of myocardial contraction f f f f




ANSWER: B f




Alpha1 receptors are found in the eyes, blood vessels, bladder, and male reproductive organs.
f f f f f f f f f f f f f




Stimulation of alpha1 receptor sites results in constriction.

8. Which side of the heart is a low-pressure system that pumps venous blood to the lungs?
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




a. Left
b. Right
ANSWER: B f




The job of the right side of the heart is to pump unoxygenated blood to and through the lungs to
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




the left side of the heart. This is called the pulmonary circulation.The right side of the heartis a low-
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




pressure system. f
