- Which 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_forwardDuring the systolic phase of the cardiac cycle, the heart is. a. contracting b. relaxing c. contracting and relaxing d. filling with bloodarrow_forwardBlood flow through capillaries in the walls of the left ventricle is ______. A unnecessary because the myocardiocytes in the wall of the left ventricle get plenty of O2 from the blood they pump B greatest during diastole; these capillaries are squeezed shut during systole when the surrounding muscle cells contract C greatest during systole; blood stops following through capillaries during diastole because the heart is relaxedarrow_forward
- How would the left ventricle of a patient who had had high blood pressure for many years differ from the left ventricle of a normal heart? A it would have a larger volume of muscle B it would have a smaller volume of muscle C it would be smaller than the right ventricle D chronic high blood pressure would weaken the heart valves but would have no anatomical effects on the walls of the ventriclesarrow_forwardWhich of the following is the best description of what happens in capillaries? A. Capillaries are surrounded by thicker smooth muscle moving blood cells to exchange nutrients and oxygen. B. Capillaries connect minor veins to major veins returning blood to the heart. C. Capillaries are the location where oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nutrients are exchanged with tissues at the cellular level. D. Capillaries are the site where blood mixes with interstitial fluid to allow for gas and nutrient exchange.arrow_forwardSA node is the main pacemaker of the heart. Why is the normal heart rate lower than the intrinsic firing rate of the SA node? A. sympathetic inputs from the hypothalamus are slowing it down B. parasympathetic inputs from medulla oblongata are slowing it down C. there is inertia in heart muscle as it takes time for impulse to spread through all the cells D. centrifugal inputs from the AV node are slowing it downarrow_forward
