When the auricles relax, the tricuspid and bicuspid valves shut. What sound does this produce?

  1. Diastole

  2. Dup

  3. Lubb

  4. Murmur


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

When the auricles relax, the tricuspid and bicuspid valves shut, which creates the first heart sound called lubb.

What is the normal systolic blood pressure of an adult man?

  1. 140 mm Hg

  2. 120 mm Hg

  3. 90 mm Hg

  4. 180 mm Hg


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

This is the normal systolic blood pressure of an adult man. The maximum normal B.P. should not exceed 150 mm Hg in adult males.

The instrument used to measure blood pressure is called

  1. electrocardiogram

  2. sphygmomanometer

  3. stethoscope

  4. barometer


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Sphygmomanometer is used to measure blood pressure. It measures both systolic and diastolic pressures.

What do we call the graphic record of the electrical variations produced by the beating of heart?

  1. Electrocardiogram

  2. Electrocardiograph

  3. Pulse pressure

  4. Blood pressure


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

It is the graphic record of the electrical variations produced by the beating of heart. It is formed by a series of ridges and furrows.

What is/are the cause(s) of low blood pressure?

  1. Vasodilation of arterioles

  2. Anemia or blood loss due to bleeding

  3. Failure of pumping action of heart

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

All the given options cause low blood pressure.

Which artery carries deoxygenated blood?

  1. Coronary artery

  2. Intercostal artery

  3. Branchial artery

  4. Pulmonary artery


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The basic function of pulmonary artery is to carry deoxygenated blood from the heart’s right ventricle into the lungs.

The sounds in the heart are created by

  1. contraction and relaxation of auricles and ventricles

  2. valves which regulate the flow of blood in the heart

  3. pericardium

  4. SA node


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Various valves present at the inlet and outlet of ventricles regulate the flow of blood in heart. Action of these valves creates the heart sounds.

Which coat of artery prevents it from collapsing?

  1. Tunica interna

  2. Tunica media

  3. Tunica externa

  4. Parietal layer


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

It prevents the artery from collapsing. It is the middle thick coat of circularly disposed, smooth or unstriped muscle fibres and elastic connective fibres. The thick coat prevents arteries from collapsing.

Which hormone decreases the heart rate?

  1. Epinephrine

  2. Norepinephrine

  3. Acetylcholine

  4. Thyroxine


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Acetylcholine is a neurohormone which is secreted by neurons of parasympathetic nerves and lowers the heart rate.

Which of the following connect(s) the heart to the centre that accelerates the heartbeat?

  1. Sympathetic nerve fibres

  2. Parasympathetic nerve fibres

  3. Vagus nerve

  4. Abducens nerve


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The cardio-accelerator which accelerates the heartbeat is connected to the heart through sympathetic nerve fibres.

Murmur sound is produced in the heart due to

  1. blockage of arteries

  2. improper functioning of bundle of his

  3. leakage of blood through the valves

  4. change in the elasticity of blood vessels


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Leakage of blood through the valves produces murmur sound.

What is pulse pressure?

  1. Increase in arterial pressure

  2. Difference in systolic and diastolic pressure

  3. Decrease in arterial pressure

  4. Fall in pressure of alveoli below atmospheric pressure


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The difference in systolic and diastolic pressure is called pulse pressure.

What kind of cells constitute tunica interna of arteries?

  1. Smooth muscle fibres

  2. Unstriped muscle fibres

  3. Endothelial cells

  4. Collagen fibres


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Wall of tunica interna is made of endothelial cells.

Which coat of artery carries small vessels and nerves to nourish the arterial wall?

  1. Tunica media

  2. Tunica externa

  3. Parietal layer

  4. Intima


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

This layer carries small vessels and nerves to nourish the arterial wall.

Which of the following is the smallest tube of arterial system?

  1. Artery

  2. Arteriole

  3. Capillary

  4. Venule


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Arterioles are the smallest tubes of the arterial system.
