a. tip of the left ventricle
fd fd fd fd
b. tip of the right atrium
fd fd fd fd
c. right atrium and right ventricle
fd fd fd fd
d. left atrium and left ventricle
fd fd fd fd
ANS: A fd
The heart’s apex, or lower portion, is formed by the tip of the left ventricle. The apex lies
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
just above the diaphragm, between the fifth and sixth ribs, in the midclavicular line.

2. The left atrium receives blood from the
fd fd fd fd fd fd .
a. pulmonary veins fd
b. aorta
c. pulmonary arteries fd
d. inferior vena cava fd fd
ANS: A fd
The left atrium receives freshly oxygenated blood from the lungs via the right and left

pulmonary veins.

3. The anterior surface of the heart consists primarily of the
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd .
a. left atrium fd
b. right atrium fd
c. left ventricle fd
d. right ventricle fd
ANS: D fd
The front (anterior) surface of the heart lies behind the sternum and costal cartilages. It is
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
formed by portions of the right atrium and the left and right ventricles. However, because
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
the heart is tilted slightly toward the left in the chest, the right ventricle is the area of the
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
heart that lies most directly behind the sternum.

4. Blood pressure is determined by

a. stroke volume; heart rate fd fd fd
b. heart rate; cardiac output
fd fd fd
c. cardiac output; peripheral vascular resistance
fd fd fd fd
d. stroke volume; peripheral vascular resistance
fd fd fd fd
ANS: C fd
Blood pressure is equal to cardiac output multiplied by peripheral vascular resistance.

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

the remainder of the body via the

fd fd fd fd fd fd fd

fd fd fd fd fd fd fd

fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
ANS: D fd
The right atrium receives blood low in oxygen from the superior vena cava, which
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
carries blood from the head and upper extremities; the inferior vena cava, which carries
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
blood from the lower body; and the coronary sinus, which is the largest vein that drains
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
the heart.
fd fd
OBJ: f d Identify and describe the chambers of the heart and the vessels that enter or leave each.
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
6. The heart is divided into
fd fd fd fd chambers but functions as a fd fd fd fd -sided pump. fd
a. two; four fd
b. three; two fd
c. four; two fd
d. four; three fd
ANS: C fd
The heart has four chambers: two atria and two ventricles. The right and left sides of the
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
heart are separated by an internal wall of connective tissue called a septum. The interatrial
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
septum separates the right and left atria. The interventricular septum separates the right
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
and left ventricles. The septa separate the heart into two functional pumps. The right
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
atrium and right ventricle make up one pump. The left atrium and left ventricle make up
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
the other.

fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
7. Stimulation of alpha1 receptors results in fd fd fd fd fd .
a. increased heart rate fd fd
b. peripheral vasoconstriction fd
c. constriction of bronchial smooth muscle fd fd fd fd
d. increased force of myocardial contraction fd fd fd fd
ANS: B fd
Alpha1 receptors are found in the eyes, blood vessels, bladder, and male reproductive organs.
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
Stimulation of alpha1 receptor sites results in constriction.
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
OBJ: f d Compare and contrast the effects of sympathetic and parasympathetic stimulation of the heart.
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
8. Which side of the heart is a low-pressure system that pumps venous blood to the lungs?
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
a. Left
b. Right
ANS: B fd
The job of the right side of the heart is to pump unoxygenated blood to and through the
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
lungs to the left side of the heart. This is called the pulmonary circulation. The right side of
fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd fd
the heart is a low-pressure system.
