In 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 lungs
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.
Which of the following statements is (are) true concerning the pathways for blood clotting?a. The intrinsic pathway takes less time than the extrinsic pathway.b. The intrinsic and extrinsic pathways require sodium.c. The intrinsic pathway is started by factors from damaged tissues.d. The intrinsic pathway requires the same clotting factors as the extrinsic pathway.e. The common pathway results in fibrin changing to fibrinogen

Descrive (in the correct order) the sequence of the blood flow through a four chambered mammalian heart. Be sure to address the following: 1. Begin with the return of oxygen poor blood from the body. 2. Describe the chemical O2/ CO2 and glucose content of the blood in the key locations. 3. Describe the machanisms that regulate the functioning of the system to maintain homeostasis.
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.
The difference between the amphibian and mammal hearts is thata. 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
When the alary muscles contract, the hemolymph is forced through the aorta into the head. Upon relaxation, the hemolymph enters the heart through the ostia. Once the hemolymph leaves the aorta, it fills the perineural and perivisceral sinuses, bathing the internal organs at the same time. Present your understanding of this concept through a diagram in the activity worksheet.
Forma Blood clotting involves a complex series of events. Test your knowledge of these events by placing the following reactions in the proper order. A. Sticky fibrin threads form a web at the site of the injury. _B. Both the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways result in the production of the enzyme prothrombin activator. C. Thrombin transforms the soluble plasma protein fibrinogen into insoluble fibrin. D. Red blood cells and platelets become ensnared in the fibrin web to create a clot of fibrin, blood cells, and platelets. E. Prothrombin is converted to the enzyme thrombin. F. Prothrombin activator acts on the globulin prothrombin (factor II).
A pithed frog in which the brain and spinal cord are severed is technically dead but some of its organs such as heart, continue to function for some time. An experiment was performed on a pithed frog. After recording the normal heartbeats (normal cardiogram or sinus rhythm), a ligature (ie. tying) is applied between the sinus venosus and right auricle. (Sinus venosus is the pacemaker in amphibian heart). It is the first ligature (I ligature). After a while, a second ligature is applied between auricles and ventricle (II ligature). The heart rates record is shown below. What can we learn from this experiment about the rhythmicity of our cardiac muscle? List THREE points. A в 5 sec 5 sec 5 sec I ligature Il ligature
