    Normal BP is 120/80 what is the top number called?

    • Systolic pressure

    • Diastolic pressure

    Correct Answer
    A. Systolic pressure
    Explanation
    The top number in a blood pressure reading is called systolic pressure. Systolic pressure represents the force exerted on the arterial walls when the heart contracts and pumps blood out into the arteries. A normal blood pressure reading is typically around 120/80 mmHg, with 120 being the systolic pressure. The bottom number, 80 in this case, represents the diastolic pressure, which is the force exerted on the arterial walls when the heart is at rest between beats.

    We can measure the heart's electrical activity (and overall health) by taking

    • Pacemakers

    • BP

    • Electrocardiograms (ECG/EKG)

    • Heart transplants

    Correct Answer
    A. Electrocardiograms (ECG/EKG)
    Explanation
    Electrocardiograms (ECG/EKG) are used to measure the heart's electrical activity and overall health. This test involves placing electrodes on the chest, arms, and legs to record the electrical signals produced by the heart. By analyzing the patterns and intervals in the ECG/EKG, healthcare professionals can detect abnormalities such as irregular heart rhythms, heart attacks, and other cardiac conditions. Pacemakers are devices implanted in the chest to regulate the heart's electrical activity, but they are not used to measure overall heart health. Blood pressure (BP) is a measurement of the force of blood against the walls of arteries and does not directly provide information about the heart's electrical activity. Heart transplants involve replacing a diseased heart with a healthy one, but they are not a method of measuring heart health.

    Which consumes pathogens and infected cells and "wears" the antigens of the pathogen (antigen-presenting cells) 

    • B-cells

    • T-cells

    • Macrophages

    • Killer T-cells

    Correct Answer
    A. Macrophages
    Explanation
    Macrophages are antigen-presenting cells that play a crucial role in the immune response. They engulf and digest pathogens and infected cells through a process called phagocytosis. Macrophages then present the antigens from the pathogens on their cell surface, acting as "wearers" of the antigens. This presentation helps activate other immune cells, such as T-cells, to mount a specific immune response against the pathogen. B-cells and T-cells also play important roles in the immune response, but macrophages specifically have the ability to both consume pathogens and infected cells and present their antigens.

    Explanation
    Lymph is a clear fluid that circulates throughout the lymphatic system. It is composed of various components, including water, lymphocytes (white blood cells), fat, electrolytes, and proteins. Water forms the base of lymph and helps transport the other components. Lymphocytes are crucial for the immune response and help fight off infections. Fat is carried in lymph vessels and aids in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. Electrolytes maintain the balance of fluids in the body. Proteins in lymph play a role in immune function and help transport fats and other substances.
