TOPIC 1: CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM
11 Questions • 8.1% of Exam • Examines the structures and functions of the heart and blood vessels.
QUESTION 1
Path of blood flow through the heart
Answer: Unoxygenated blood from Inferior Vena Cava (lower extremities) / Superior Vena Cava (upper
extremities) → Right Atrium → Right Ventricle → Pulmonary artery → Lungs for oxygenation → Pulmonary
Vein → Left Atrium → Left Ventricle → Aorta → Upper and lower extremities through arteries.
QUESTION 2
ADH
Answer: Antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin, is produced in the hypothalamus and
secreted by the pituitary gland. It helps the kidneys control how much water the body loses through urine.
When ADH is released, the kidneys conserve water and produce more concentrated urine.
QUESTION 3
Hypothalamus
Answer: Releasing and Inhibiting Hormones: Regulate the release of hormones from the pituitary gland.

QUESTION 4
Blood pressure
Answer: Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of your arteries as your heart pumps
blood around your body.
QUESTION 5
Eccrine Glands
Answer: Found all over the body and open directly onto the skin surface through pores, secreting a clear,
odorless sweat that's 98-99% water.
QUESTION 6
Osteoporosis
Answer: A bone disease that occurs when the body destroys too much bone or doesn't create enough new
bone.
QUESTION 7
Mutation
Answer: Occurs when an adenine and guanine are placed together, creating a change in DNA.
QUESTION 8
Ribosomes
Answer: Sites of protein synthesis. They translate genetic information from mRNA into proteins by linking
amino acids together in the correct sequence.
QUESTION 9
Independent assortment
Answer: The principle that alleles for different traits are passed independently of one another from parents to
offspring.
