Chapter 48, Problem 3A
The difference between the amphibian and mammal hearts is that
a. in the amphibian heart, oxygenated and deoxygenated blood mix completely in the single ventricle.
b. in the amphibian heart, there are two SA nodes so that contractions occur simultaneously throughout the heart.
c. in the ventricle in the amphibian heart, internal channels reduce mixing of blood.
d. in the amphibian heart, only the left aorta pumps oxygen obtained by diffusion through the skin.

Which of the following is true of the circulatory system of a grasshopper?
A. One or more muscular chamber hearts drive blood through the closed circulatory system of the
grasshopper.
B. The grasshopper has an open circulatory system with a heart that is a peristaltic vessel.
C. Because the grasshopper has an open circulatory system, the maximum hemolymph pressures
that can be achieved are relatively low, which limits the maximum metabolic rate that can be
achieved.
D. The grasshopper does not have a specialized circulatory system - instead, its circulatory system
consists of the fluid in the body cavity which is circulated by means of the body movements of
the animal.
E. Both B and C are true of the circulatory system of the grasshopper.
Which of the following is a predicted outcome in a mammal heart that entirely lacks valves?
A.
Oxygenated and spent (deoxygenated) blood would mix.
B.
Cardiac output would be lower than that in a normal heart with valves.
C.
Heart rate would be lower compared with that in a normal heart with valves.
D.
A-V delay would be longer compared with that in a normal heart with valves.
E.
The pathways for blood flow to the body and the lungs would be reversed.

- In the vertebrate circulatory system, the large arteries (i.e. the aorta and arteries collectively)... A. are the site of highest blood vessel total cross-sectional area B. have the highest total blood flow C. are the site of exchange between the blood and the tissues D. have the highest blood pressure E. All of the abovearrow_forwardHearts of mammals are described to have double pump structure. Which choice explains the functional and structural basis for the said description? A. Blood enters the atrium and pumped into ventricle. B. Blood pressure alternates between systolic and diastolic at all times. C. Atrium provide 1 pump, ventricle provides 2nd pump. D. Heart pumps blood simultaneously in systemic and pulmonary circuit.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about vertebrate circulatory systems is not true? A. In mammals, the blood pressure in the aorta is higher than the pressure in the pulmonary artery. B. In fishes, oxygenated blood from the gills returns directly to the heart through the left atrium. C. In birds, deoxygenated blood leaves the heart through the pulmonary artery. D. In reptiles, the blood in the pulmonary artery has a lower oxygen content than the blood in the aorta. E. In amphibians, deoxygenated blood enters the heart through the right atrium.arrow_forward
- During the ventricular ejection phase of the normal human cardiac cycle, one option is correct: a. ejection takes less time than filling, in a resting human. b. the left ventricle diameter increases and the ventricle elongates from base to apex. c. papillary muscles close the atrioventricular valves. d. the chordae tendineae are relaxed. e. the apex beat is best felt in the anterior axillary line, fifth intercostal space.arrow_forwardIn some reptiles, the two layers of dura mater fuse together in the brain. What is a likely consequence of this finding? Group of answer choices a. Because the two layers are fused, it will form a stronger blood-brain barrier. b. Arteries are not able to pass through the two layers, so they must be rerouted around the dura mater. c. With no space between layers, blood cannot be collected here for return to the venous system. d. There will be increased damage to the tissue compared to mammals because in mammals, serous fluid between the layers reduces friction.arrow_forwardThe heart chamber that receives oxygenated blood from the lungs of animals with a double circulation is the a. left atrium. b. right ventricle. c. left ventricle. d. right atrium.arrow_forward
- What is the advantage of a four-chambered heart?a. It uses the least energy of any type of heart.b. It maximizes the amount of O2 reaching tissues.c. It enhances the mixing of blood from the pulmonary and systemiccirculation.d. Both a and c are correctarrow_forwardWhich is not true about our heart A. ventricular systole squeezes blood to the lungs and the body B. Both ventricles hold the same volume of blood C. The pacemaker is in the right atrium D. blood from the left lung goes to the left atrium and blood from the right lung goes to the right atriumarrow_forwardIn humans the wall of the left ventricle is thicker than that of the right ventricle. This adaptation is due to the fact that the left ventricle Select one: O a. pumps blood to the extremities of the body O b. pumps blood that is low in oxygen content O C. is smaller than the right ventricle O d. pumps blood to the left and right lungsarrow_forward
- A major advantage of a double circulation is thata. blood can be pumped to the upper portions of the body by onecircuit and to the lower portions of the body by the other circuit.b. each circuit can pump blood at a different pressure to optimize thefunction of each.c. the oxygenated blood can mix with the deoxygenated blood beforebeing pumped to the tissues of the body.d. less energy is required to provide nutrients and oxygen to the tissuesof the body.e. All of the above are advantages of a double circulation.arrow_forwardThe heart’s internal pacemaker beats by: a. an internal implant that sends an electrical impulse through the heart b. the excitation of cardiac muscle cells at the sinoatrial node followed by the atrioventricular node c. the excitation of cardiac muscle cells at the atrioventricular node followed by the sinoatrial node d. the action of the sinusarrow_forwardWhich condition is the most common cause aging changes of the blood vessels? A. Arteriosclerosis B. Varicose veins C. Phlebitis D. All of the selection are causes Pathway of blood circulation in adult. A. Superior vena cava → right atrium → tricuspid valve à right ventricle B. Pulmonary vein → left atrium → mitral valve → left ventricle C. Left ventricle → aortic valve → ascending aorta → brachiocephalic D. Right ventricle → pulmonary valve → pulmonary trunk → pulmonary artery E. All pathways are correct.arrow_forward
