Q81
'Bundle of His' is a part of which one of the following organs in humans?
A Brain
B Heart
C Kidney
D Pancreas
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

(b) Bundle of His are cardiac muscle fibres connecting the atria with ventricle.

Q82
Figure shows blood circulation in humans. Identify D - Pulmonary vein.
A A - Artery - thick walled and blood flows evenly
B B - Capillary - thin without muscle layers and wall two cell thick
C C - Vein - thin walled and blood flows in jerks/spurts
D D - Pulmonary vein - takes oxygenated blood to heart PO2=95 mmHg
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

(d) Pulmonary veins are the only veins which carry oxygenated blood. (PO2=95 mmHg, PCO2=40 mmHg)

Q83
The diagram given here is the standard ECG of a normal person the P-wave represents the :
A Initiation of the ventricular contraction
B Beginning of the systole
C End of systole
D Contraction of both the atria
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

(d) P-wave represents the electrical excitation (depolarisation) of the atria, leading to the contraction of both the atria.

Q84
How do parasympathetic neural signals affect the working of the heart?
A Reduce both heart rate and cardiac output.
B Heart rate is increased without affecting the cardiac output.
C Both heart rate and cardiac output increase.
D Heart rate decreases but cardiac output increases.
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

(a) Parasympathetic nervous system decreases heart beat and thereby the cardiac output.

Q85
Which one of the following animals has two separate circulatory pathways?
A Lizard
B Whale
C Shark
D Frog
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

(b) Whale is a mammal with four chambered heart having two separate circulatory pathways.

Q86
Doctors use stethoscope to hear cardiac cycle sounds. The second sound is heard when:
A Ventricular wall vibrate due to gushing in of blood from atria.
B Semilunar valves close down after the blood flows into vessels from ventricles.
C AV node receives signal from SA node.
D AV valves open up.
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

(b) The second sound occurs when semilunar valves close down after blood flows into vessels from ventricles.

Q87
Blood pressure in the mammalian aorta is maximum during :
A Diastole of the right ventricle.
B Systole of the left ventricle.
C Diastole of the right atrium.
D Systole of the left atrium.
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

(b) Aorta arises from left ventricle and blood pressure is maximum during systole of the left ventricle.

Q88
Blood pressure in the pulmonary artery is
A same as that in the aorta.
B more than that in the carotid.
C more than that in the pulmonary vein.
D less than that in the venae cavae.
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

(c) Arteries have higher blood pressure than veins.

Q89
Match tricuspid valve, bicuspid valve and semilunar valve with their locations
A iii i ii
B i iii ii
C ii i iii
D i ii iii
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

(a) Tricuspid - between right atrium and right ventricle; Bicuspid - between left atrium and left ventricle; Semilunar - at openings of aorta and pulmonary artery.

Q90
What would be the heart rate of a person if the cardiac output is 5 L, blood volume in the ventricles at the end of diastole is 100 mL and at the end of ventricular systole is 50 mL?
A 50 beats per minute
B 75 beats per minute
C 100 beats per minute
D 125 beats per minute
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

(c) Stroke volume = 100-50 = 50 ml. Cardiac output = SV x HR. 5000 = 50 x HR. HR = 100 beats per minute.
