Questions and Answers

Which blood vessel returns oxygenated blood to the heart?

  • Aorta
  • Inferior vena cava
  • Pulmonary artery
  • Pulmonary vein (correct)
  • Match the layers of heart with their positions.

    Middle layer of muscle tissue in the heart = Myocardium Outermost layer of the heart = Epicardium Innermost layer of the heart = Endocardium

    Venous blood returning from the body enters which chamber of the heart first?

  • Left atrium
  • Right atrium (correct)
  • Left ventricle
  • Right ventricle

    In which order does blood flow through the heart?

    <p>Deoxygenated blood enters the right atrium via the superior vena cava, inferior vena cava, and coronary sinus. = 1 . Blood enters the lungs via the pulmonary arteries, and gas exchange occurs through the pulmonary capillary system. Blood flows through pulmonary veins to the left atrium. = 3,4 Blood passes through the tricuspid valve to the right ventricle. = 2 Blood moves through the mitral valve to the left ventricle. Blood moves through the aortic valve into the aorta. = 5,6</p> Signup and view all the answers

    In which order does the process of inspiration and expiration occur?

    <p>The phrenic nerve stimulates the diaphragm to move downward, and the intercostal nerve causes the intercostal muscles to contract. = 2 The respiratory center in the brain sends an impulse to nerves. = 1 The chest cavity expands, causing decreased intraalveolar pressure. . Atmospheric pressure exceeds intraalveolar pressure, causing air to move into the respiratory tract and the lungs to fill with air. Atmospheric pressure exceeds intraalveolar pressure, causing air to move into the respiratory tract and the lungs to fill with air. = 3, 4 The diaphragm relaxes, and intraalveolar pressure increases. Air is forced out from the lungs. = 5,6</p> Signup and view all the answers
