I: | The opening between the right atrium and the right ventricle is guarded by the tricuspid valve. |
II: | A bicuspid or mitral valve guards the opening between the left atrium and the left ventricle. |
III: | The openings of the right and the left ventricles into the pulmonary artery and the aorta respectively are provided with the semilunar valves. |
I: | allow the flow of blood from ventricles to the pulmonary artery or aorta. |
II: | prevent any backward flow of blood from the pulmonary artery or aorta into the ventricles. |
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. |
1. | SA node, AV bundle, AV node, Purkinje fibers |
2. | SA node, AV node, AV bundle, Purkinje fibers |
3. | AV node, AV bundle, SA node, Purkinje fibers |
4. | AV node, SA node, Purkinje fibers, AV bundle |
Assertion (A): | If the SA node does not function, or the impulse generated in the SA node is blocked before it travels down the electrical conduction system, the heart would stop. |
Reason (R): | No other part of the nodal tissue of the heart is capable of generating the impulse. |
In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below:
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. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
If the atrioventricular node is damaged:
1. SA node would not develop action potential
2. atria will fail to contract
3. the impulse will not reach AV node
4. the impulse will not reach ventricles
All the following statements regarding joint diastole phase of the cardiac cycle are correct except:
1. | All chambers are in a relaxed state |
2. | The AV valves may remain closed in the initial period |
3. | Ventricles get filled in the later part |
4. | Semilunar valves remain open |
1. | The atrioventricular valves open during systole |
2. | The ventricles contract during diastole |
3. | The semilunar valves open during ventricular systole |
4. | Atrial systole occurs simultaneously with ventricular systole |
1. | The ventricles are also in systole. |
2. | The atrioventricular valves are closed. |
3. | Blood is being pumped into the aorta and pulmonary trunk. |
4. | Blood is being pumped into the ventricles. |
