The correct path of circulation of the blood in the human heart is represented by:

1.	left atrium, left ventricle, lungs, right atrium, right ventricle, body
2.	right atrium, right ventricle, lungs, left atrium, left ventricle, body
3.	left atrium, left ventricle, right atrium, right ventricle, lungs, body
4.	right atrium, lungs, right ventricle, left atrium, body, left ventricle

Sympathetic stimulation would lead to:
1. increased heart rate.
2. increased stroke volume.
3. vasoconstriction in visceral blood vessels.
4. all of the above.

The innermost layer of blood vessel walls made up of one layer of endothelium and in direct contact with the blood is:

Blood vessels have smooth muscles in their walls that are innervated by:
1. myelinated motor neurons.
2. unmyelinated sympathetic neurons.
3. unmyelinated motor neurons.
4. unmyelinated parasympathetic neurons.

The build-up of fats, cholesterol and other substances in and on the artery walls is known as:

The smoothness of endothelium is a very important factor that prevents thrombus formation. The endothelial cells:
1. increase cardiac output.
2. decrease heart rate.
3. inhibit platelet aggregation and control blood vessel diameter.
4. nourish the cells in the outer half of the blood vessel wall.

Capillary walls are different from the walls of veins and arteries as they are composed of:
1. endothelium only.
2. endothelium and smooth muscle.
3. a tunica interna and a tunica media.
4. smooth muscle and elastic connective tissue.

The right ventricle pumps the blood into the pulmonary trunk that next enters the:
1. pulmonary veins.
2. left and right pulmonary arteries.
3. pulmonary capillaries.
4. left atrium

Branch of aorta that supplies the oxygenated blood to the muscles of the heart is:
1. coronary arteries.
2. common carotid arteries.
3. coronary sinus.
4. great cardiac veins.

Identify the incorrect statement regarding the hepatic portal system:
1. It includes two capillary beds separated by a portal vein.
2. The first capillary bed picks up nutrients from the liver.
3. The second capillary bed delivers nutrients to the liver.
4. Blood leaving the hepatic portal vein flows into the second capillary bed.
