1. | is derived from embryonic endoderm. |
2. | is situated in the thoracic cavity, in between the two lungs. |
3. | has the size and shape of a baseball. |
4. | is protected by a single walled membranous bag, pericardium. |
Inter-atrial septum in the human heart is:
1. | a thin muscular wall | 2. | a thick muscular wall |
3. | a thin membranous wall | 4. | a thick membranous wall |
A four chambered heart is not seen in:
1. | Amphibians | 2. | Crocodiles |
3. | Birds | 4. | Mammals |
What separates the atria from the ventricles so that the atrial impulse does not spill onto the ventricles?
1. | fibrous skeleton | 2. | AV bundle |
3. | visceral pericardium | 4. | Purkinje fibers |
The location of the human heart is most accurately described as:
1. | mediastinum of the lungs. |
2. | mediastinum of the pericardium. |
3. | mediastinum, which is located in the thoracic cavity. |
4. | thoracic cavity, which is located in the mediastinum. |
Assertion(A): | Blood flows through the human heart in a single, continuous circuit. |
Reason(R): | The human heart has four chambers - two auricles and two ventricles. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
Match the items given in Column I with those in Column II and select the correct option given below:
Column I | Column II | ||
a. | Tricuspid valve | (i) | Between left atrium and left ventricle |
b. | Bicuspid valve | (ii) | Between right ventricle and pulmonary artery |
c. | Semilunar valve | (iii) | Between right atrium and right ventricle |
a | b | c | |
1. | iii | i | ii |
2. | i | iii | ii |
3. | i | ii | iii |
4. | ii | i | iii |
Statement I: | A muscular wall called a septum prevents the mixture of blood between the left and right sides of the heart. |
Statement II: | The left ventricle has a thicker musculature when compared to the musculature of the right ventricle. |
Match each item in Column I with one in Column II and select the correct answer from the codes given:
Column I | Column II | ||
A. | Mitral valve | a. | Allows blood flow from left atrium to left ventricle |
B. | Papillary muscles | b. | Does not allow back opening of AV valves during ventricular systole |
C. | AV node | c. | Ensure all chambers do not contract simultaneously |
D. | Fibrous band between atrial and ventricular muscle mass | d. | Ensures atria contract before ventricles |
