BMS1032 cardio example Q's

?
the heart:
ejects about 5L/min of blood in a typical resting adult
1 of 16
the cardiac output:
is the same from the right ventricle compared to the left
2 of 16
the ECG:
occurs at the same rate as the arterial pulse in a healthy individual
3 of 16
the tricuspid valve:
is open during diastole
4 of 16
arteries:
dampen the pulsatile flow of blood emerging from the heart
5 of 16
the baroreceptor reflex:
is an example of a negative feedback process
6 of 16
arterial blood pressure:
is sensed in the carotid sinus
7 of 16
the sympathetic nervous system when activated:
increases systemic vascular resistance (causes vasocontriction)
8 of 16
an increase in venous return to the heart:
increases ventricular stroke work
9 of 16
deoxygenated blood:
remains about 75% saturated with o2
10 of 16
human blood:
is composed of about 40-45% cells, with the remainder plasma
11 of 16
plasma proteins:
include immunoglobulins and albumin
12 of 16
clotting factors:
require Ca2+ as a cofactor in many instances
13 of 16
concerning blood groups:
a person of blood group O is a universal donor
14 of 16
platelets:
aggregate by a process inhibited by asprin
15 of 16
erythropoiesis:
is increased by low arterial PO2 (hypoxia)
