Questions and Answers
- 1.
Which of these is not a reason we have blood, pumped round our body by the Heart?
- A.
To prevent clotting.
- B.
To transport nutrients around the body.
- C.
To transport Nitrogen around the body.
- D.
To transport Oxygen around the body.
- E.
To keep the body warm.
Correct Answer
C. To transport Nitrogen around the body.Explanation
Blood is responsible for transporting oxygen, nutrients, and heat throughout the body. It also plays a crucial role in preventing clotting. However, nitrogen is not transported by the blood. Nitrogen is a component of the air we breathe, but it is not actively transported in the bloodstream.Rate this question:

The heart is made of cardiac muscle tissue.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
The heart is made of cardiac muscle tissue because cardiac muscle tissue is a specialized type of muscle tissue that is found only in the heart. It is responsible for the contraction and relaxation of the heart, allowing it to pump blood throughout the body. This unique type of muscle tissue is highly efficient and can withstand continuous contractions without getting fatigued, making it ideal for the constant work of the heart. Therefore, it is true that the heart is made of cardiac muscle tissue.Rate this question:

How many ventricles does the Heart have?
- A.
1
- B.
2
- C.
3
- D.
8
- E.
12
Correct Answer
B. 2Explanation
The heart has two ventricles. The ventricles are the lower chambers of the heart that pump blood to the rest of the body. The right ventricle pumps blood to the lungs to receive oxygen, while the left ventricle pumps oxygenated blood to the rest of the body. Having two ventricles allows for efficient circulation of blood throughout the body.Rate this question:

The right ventricle pumps blood to/for what part of the body?
- A.
All of the body.
- B.
The extremities of the body.
- C.
The stomach.
- D.
The Brain.
- E.
Your Lungs.

The left ventricle pumps blood to the body's circulation system, but what main artery does it go through to get there?
- A.
Aorta.
- B.
Pulmonary Artery.
- C.
Biscuspid valve.
- D.
Left Atrium.
Correct Answer
A. Aorta.Explanation
The left ventricle pumps oxygenated blood to the body's circulation system through the aorta. The aorta is the largest artery in the body and carries oxygen-rich blood from the heart to all the organs and tissues.Rate this question:

A human heart is made up of 4 main compartments, which of these are not one of those main compartments? (list more than one.)
- A.
Vena Cava.
- B.
Left Atrium.
- C.
AV Valve.
- D.
Right Ventricle.
- E.
Semi-Lunar Valve.
Correct Answer(s)
A. Vena Cava.
C. AV Valve.
E. Semi-Lunar Valve.Explanation
The correct answer is Vena Cava, AV Valve, and Semi-Lunar Valve. These are not one of the main compartments of the human heart. The four main compartments of the human heart are the left atrium, right atrium, left ventricle, and right ventricle. The Vena Cava is a large vein that carries deoxygenated blood into the right atrium, while the AV Valve (also known as the atrioventricular valve) and the Semi-Lunar Valve are valves that regulate blood flow between the atria and ventricles, and between the ventricles and the arteries respectively.Rate this question:

In the diagram of the Heart what is lable Number 3?
- A.
Left Ventricle.
- B.
Vena Cava.
- C.
Right Atrium.
- D.
AV Valve.
Correct Answer
C. Right Atrium.Explanation
In the diagram of the heart, label number 3 corresponds to the Right Atrium. This is the chamber of the heart that receives deoxygenated blood from the body through the superior and inferior vena cava. It then pumps the blood into the right ventricle to be sent to the lungs for oxygenation. The other options, such as the Left Ventricle, Vena Cava, and AV Valve, do not correspond to label number 3 in the diagram.Rate this question:

On the diagram of the Heart what is label Number 1?
- A.
AV Valve.
- B.
Biscupid Valve.
- C.
Vena Cava (inferior).
- D.
Aorta.
Correct Answer
C. Vena Cava (inferior).Explanation
Label Number 1 on the diagram of the heart is the Vena Cava (inferior). The Vena Cava (inferior) is a large vein that carries deoxygenated blood from the lower body back to the heart. It enters the right atrium of the heart, as shown in the diagram. The AV valve, biscupid valve, and aorta are not labeled as Number 1 on the diagram.Rate this question:

In the diagram of the heart what is label Number 10?
- A.
Right Atrium.
- B.
Left Atrium.
- C.
Left Ventricle.
- D.
Vena Cava.
- E.
Right Ventricle.
Correct Answer
B. Left Atrium.Explanation
In the diagram of the heart, label number 10 corresponds to the Left Atrium. The atria are the upper chambers of the heart, and the left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the lungs. It then pumps this oxygen-rich blood into the left ventricle, which is responsible for pumping the blood out to the rest of the body. The right atrium, on the other hand, receives deoxygenated blood from the body and pumps it into the right ventricle. Therefore, the correct label for number 10 in the heart diagram is the Left Atrium.Rate this question:

In the diagram of the heart what is label Number 11?
- A.
Biscupid Valve.
- B.
Plumonary Vein.
- C.
AV Valve.
- D.
Semi-Lunar Valve.
Correct Answer
A. Biscupid Valve.Explanation
Number 11 in the diagram of the heart is labeled as the Biscupid Valve. This valve, also known as the Mitral Valve, is located between the left atrium and the left ventricle. It consists of two cusps that open and close to control the flow of blood from the atrium to the ventricle. The Biscupid Valve prevents the backflow of blood into the atrium when the ventricle contracts, ensuring that blood flows in the correct direction through the heart.Rate this question:

What organ in the Human body is vital to blood circulation?
- A.
The Heart.
- B.
The Lungs.
- C.
The left foot.
- D.
The Brain.
- E.
...
Correct Answer
A. The Heart.Explanation
The heart is the organ in the human body that is vital to blood circulation. It pumps oxygenated blood to the rest of the body and deoxygenated blood to the lungs for oxygenation. Without the heart, blood cannot be circulated throughout the body, leading to organ failure and ultimately death. The lungs are responsible for oxygenating the blood, but they do not circulate it. The left foot and the brain are not directly involved in blood circulation.Rate this question:
