End of chapter exercises Problem 1: The following diagrams show the heart during the cardiac cycle. The arrows represent the flow of blood. Study the diagrams and answer the questions that follow: Figure 1 1. Identify the structures labelled A and B respectively. 2. Name and explain what happens in each of the phases of the cardiac cycle represented in: 1. Diagram I 2. Diagram II 3. Diagram III Practise more questions like this Answer 1:TODO Problem 2: Loss of a lot of blood, vomiting and diarrhoea often causes a decrease in blood volume. As a result, blood cannot move normally around the body, as blood vessels are not completely full. The tissues do not get enough blood, leading to possible death of cells and hence damage to organs. 1. Explain why severe vomiting and diarrhoea would cause a decrease in the blood volume. 2. What is the relationship between blood volume and blood pressure? Practise more questions like this Answer 2:TODO Problem 3: Read the passage below and then answer the questions based on it. When the ventricles of the heart pump blood into the arteries, the pressure of the blood in the arteries is high. This is called systolic pressure (average 120 mm Hg). When the heart muscle relaxes, the pressure in the arteries is much less. This is called diastolic pressure (average 80 mm Hg). The average blood pressure of a healthy person is 120 over 80. It is normal for a person's blood pressure to differ slightly from the average. If blood pressure is too high or too low there is medication that can be used to control this. High blood pressure is called 'hypertension' and low blood pressure is called 'hypotension'. There are several contributing factors to heart disease, namely hypertension, strokes, lack of exercise, smoking, rich fatty diets, obesity and diabetes. Research has shown that 25% of the South African population suffer from hypertension and that this is on the increase. The treatment for hypertension is expensive and has a great impact on the health system and on the economy. 1. Explain what causes the pressure in the arteries to rise and fall. 2. Why is it essential that blood pressure in the capillary vessels be much lower than that in the artery? 3. List THREE reasons why heart disease is on the increase in South Africa. 4. Suggest ONE way in which the government could reduce the number of people with heart disease.

Which vessel, A or B is the artery? 2. Provide TWO reasons for your answer to the previous question. 3. Which vessel carries blood at low pressure? 4. Provide an explanation for your answer to the previous question. 5. Identify the parts numbered 1 to 4. 6. How do capillaries differ from larger blood vessels? 7. In which vessel, A or B would you expect to find valves? 8. What is the function of the valves in the previous question? 9. Name the blood vessel that: 1. carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs 2. carries oxygenated blood from the heart for systemic circulation 3. carries blood from the digestive system to the liver Practise more questions like this Answer 4:TODO Problem 5: Study the diagram of the lymphatic system and answer the questions that follow: Figure 3 1. Name the components of the lymphatic system. 2. Identify the: 1. blood vessel numbered 3 2. duct numbered 4 3. structure numbered 6 3. Name TWO factors that assist movement of the lymph fluid. 4. State FOUR functions of lymph in the human body. Practise more questions like this Answer 5:TODO Problem 6: Multiple-choice questions 1. The left side of the heart 1. transports deoxygenated blood to the lungs 2. is more muscular than the right-hand side 3. has a built in pacemaker 4. is a mixture of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood 2. Angina is 1. a panic attack caused by the release of too much adrenalin 2. a fatal heart attack 3. a serious heart cramp caused by a lack of oxygen in the cardiac muscles 4. the result of a clot in the blood vessels going to the brain 3. The stage in the cardiac cycle when the blood is pumped into the aorta and the pulmonary artery is 1. atrial systole 2. ventricular diastole 3. general diastole 4. ventricular systole 4. The valve between the left ventricle and the left atrium of the heart is called the 1. mitral valve 2. tricuspid valve 3. aortic semi-lunar valve 4. pulmonary semi-lunar valve 5. The accompanying graph indicates that changes in adrenalin secretion and the pulse rate, before, during (0 to 10 minutes) and after a cigarette was smoked. Use the given graph to indicate which one of the following deduction is a valid interpretation of the graph. Figure 4 1. Smoking directly causes an increase in the basal metabolic rate. 2. The cardiac muscles relax during smoking. 3. Smoking directly stimulates the pulse rate. 4. There is a no relationship between adrenalin secretion and pulse rate Explain WHY there is a relationships between smoking and adrenalin secretion Practise more questions like this Answer 6: 1.
