6. The heart is divided into
1a 1a 1a 1a chambers but functions as a 1a 1a 1a 1a -sided pump. 1a

b. three; two 1a



c. four; two 1a



d. four; three 1a




ANSWER: C 1a



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

e separated by an internal wall of connective tissue called a septum. The interatrial septum sep
1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a



arates the right and left atria. The interventricular septum separates the right and left ventricles
1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a



. The septa separate the heart into two functional pumps. The right atrium and right ventricle
1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a



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

7. Stimulation of alpha1 receptors results in 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a .
a. increased heart rate 1a 1a



b. peripheral vasoconstriction 1a



c. constriction of bronchial smooth muscle 1a 1a 1a 1a



d. increased force of myocardial contraction 1a 1a 1a 1a




ANSWER: B 1a



Alpha1 receptors are found in the eyes, blood vessels, bladder, and male reproductive organs. Stimu
1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a



lation of alpha1 receptor sites results in constriction.
1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a




OBJ: Compare and contrast the effects of sympathetic and parasympathetic stimulation of the heart.
1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a




8. Which side of the heart is a low-pressure system that pumps venous blood to the lungs?
1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a



a. Left
b. Right
ANSWER: B 1a



The job of the right side of the heart is to pump unoxygenated blood to and through the lungs t
1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a



o the left side of the heart. This is called the pulmonary circulation. The right side of the heart is
1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a 1a



a low-pressure system.
