- Several years ago the deaths of several airline travelers led to warnings about economy-class syndrome. The idea is that economy-class passengers dont have as much leg room as passengers in more expensive seats, so they are more likely to sit essentially motionless for long periods on flightsconditions that may allow blood to pool and clots to form in the legs. This condition is called deep-vein thrombosis, or DVT. Given what you know about blood flow in the veins, explain why periodically getting up and moving around in the planes cabin during a long flight may lower the risk that a clot will form.arrow_forward92) Referring to the Cardiac Output formula, which value is most important in determining the cardiac output for an individual who is in good shape? Group of answer choices End-systolic volume Heart Rate End-diastolic volume Stroke Volume 93)The type of regulation of the heart that causes the heart rate to increase up to 250 bpm by opening calcium channels in the SA node is ________________________ Group of answer choices Sympathetic regulation Parasympathetic regulation Respiratory regulation Intrinsic regulation 94) The correct formula for the mean arterial pressure is ___________________. Group of answer choices diastolic pressure + 1/3 pulse pressure None of the above diastolic pressure/3 + pulse pressure/3 systolic pressure – diastolic pressurearrow_forwardThe onset of Ventrieular diastole is associated with: A. the closing of the aortiC valve B. the ejection of blood from the ventricles C. the opening of the atrio-ventricular (AV) valves D. the first heart soundarrow_forward
- All of the following are true of the anatomy of the heart except A. The epicardium has a serous membrane with a thin layer of fluid B. The myocardium is also known as the cardiac muscle C. The pericardium is primitive and will degenerate D. The endocardium also forms the heart valves Choose the correct answerarrow_forwardAll of the following mechanisms assist in returning venous blood to the heart except: a. an increase in heart rate b. pressure changes in the abdominal and thoracic cavities due to breathing c. contraction of skeletal muscles in the legs d. one-way valves located inside veinsarrow_forwardWhich of the following is/are true concerning the opening and closing of the cardiac valves? A. valves operate according to the pressures on either side of the valve B. valve operation is constantly being controlled by the medulla oblongata C. valve operation is determined directly by the cardiac action potential (electrical currents control the opening and closing of the valves.) D. valve operation is directly controlled by the papillary muscles within the ventricular wall. E. None of the above is correct.arrow_forward
- In the aorta, Select one: a. the resistance to blood flow is high, but velocity of blood flow is low. b. the velocity of blood flow is high, but blood pressure is low. c. velocity is diminished because the total cross-sectional area is small. d. the blood pressure and blood velocity are both high. e. the resistance to blood flow and the blood pressure are both low.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 of the following is a result of their condition?arrow_forward
- Which of the following would INCREASE blood pressure? DECREASED: 1) blood volume 2) blood vessel radius 3) heart rate 4) stroke volumearrow_forwardMark ALL the statements about capillaries that are TRUE. Select one or more: a. Towards the venule end of the capillary, the blood pressure is higher than the osmotic pressure. b. Fluid will leave the capillaries when the osmotic pressure exceeds the blood pressure. c. Capillaries are only one cell layer thick so the blood moves through them at low velocity. d. Capillaries have a total cross-sectional area that is greater than any other class of vessels. e. The blood pressure will decrease as the blood flows through the capillaries from the arterioles.arrow_forwardWhich of the following structures provides the anchoring site for the valves of the heart and prevents the conduction of electrophysiologic impulses form the atria to the ventricles?
