The Greek anatomist Erasistratus, originally from Ceos, identified the correct function of the right atrioventricular valve of the human heart, which was to prevent backward flow of blood from: the right ventricle to the right atrium the right ventricle to the left ventricle the right ventricle to the left atrium the left ventricle to the right ventricle the left ventricle to the left atrium

The Alexandrian physician Herophilus, originally from Chalcedon, was able to make which of the following diagnostic conclusions based on the strength and rate of the human pulse? that a weak but rapid pulse was a sign of significantly increased blood volume that a strong but slow pulse was a sign of significant blood loss that a strong but rapid pulse was a sign of air entering the left atrium that a weak but rapid pulse was a sign of significant blood loss that a weak but slow pulse was a sign of significantly increased blood volume
Blood is pushed out of the heart through a large vessel, called the aorta. The aorta then divides into smaller and smaller blood vessels, eventually reaching vessels called capillaries. Capillaries are so small that oxygen and nutrients can diffuse across the vessel walls and into the tissues of the body, with CO2 and waste diffusing back into the blood. Let's say that the cross-sectional area of the aorta is 1 cm2 = 100 mm2. The blood pumps through the aorta at 100 mm/s but only through the capillaries at 1 mm/s. If each capillary has a cross-sectional area of 20 mm2, how many capillaries must there be in the body? Note: these numbers are not physiologically correct, but were chosen to make the math easier. The blood velocity through the aorta is closer to 300 mm/s. The capillaries have a total cross-sectional area of ~600,000 mm2 (6000 cm2), with a blood flow rate closer to 0.2 mm/s.
The English physiologist William Harvey made all of the following circulatory discoveries except: both pulmonary and systemic blood pressure comes from pumping of the heart the function of valves in the veins is to direct blood flow back to the heart blood in the arteries is under more pressure than is blood in the veins arterial pressure is greatest during diastole and lowest during systole the function of the vertebrate heart is to pump blood continuously
In the cardiovascular dynamics experiment (part 2), if the right beaker simulates the flow of blood to the systemic circuit of the body, what do the right valve and flow tube represent? Select one: aortic valve and pulmonary veins bicuspid valve and pulmonary veins aortic valve and aorta bicuspid valve and aorta
Which of the following is the correct sequence of blood flow through pulmonary circulation? Group of answer choices Right atrium → right ventricle → pulmonary arteries → pulmonary capillaries (in lungs) → pulmonary veins → left atrium Left atrium → left ventricle → pulmonary arteries → pulmonary capillaries (in lungs) → pulmonary veins → right atrium Right atrium → right ventricle → pulmonary capillaries (in lungs) → pulmonary arteries → pulmonary veins → left atrium Left atrium → left ventricle → pulmonary capillaries (in lungs) → pulmonary arteries → pulmonary veins → right atrium Left atrium → left ventricle → pulmonary veins → pulmonary arteries → pulmonary capillaries (in lungs) → right atrium
What is the correct path through the circulatory system which describes the passage of blood originating in the left leg? Vena cava → left atrium → right atrium → lungs → left ventricle → right ventricle → aorta Vena cava → left atrium → left ventricle → lungs → right atrium → right ventricle → aorta Vena cava → right atrium → left atrium → lungs → right ventricle → left ventricle → aorta Vena cava → right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → aorta
Fill in the table below by indicating the organ, region or vessel that the named vessel receives blood from, and the organ, region or vessel to which it delivers blood (see example for aorta and coronary arteries). If you’re doing it right, both columns will have the same answer. You will need to refer to the images in your textbook and lab models to do this.

Which of the following statements best describes systolic blood pressure? Systolic blood pressure depends upon the force of the heart contractions - the stronger the contractions the higher the systolic pressure will be. Systolic blood pressure depends on how tightly the cuff of the sphygmomanometer is tightened. Systolic blood pressure depends upon the resistance of the blood vessels - the greater the resistance to blood flow the higher the systolic pressure will be. Systolic blood pressure depends upon the force and frequency of the heart contractions - the stronger and more frequent the contractions the higher the systolic pressure will be.
In all humans the first three arteries to branch off of the aortic arch are brachiocephalic trunk, left common carotid artery and left subclavian artery. True False Fossa ovalis exists in a fetal heart and turns into foramen ovale upon birth. True False Atrial muscles contract from the base down, while ventricular muscles contract from the apex upwards. True False Capillary hydrostatic pressure is higher than the capillary osmotic pressure at the beginning of the capillary, but is lower at the end of the capillary. True False
