Given below are four statements (i-iv) regarding human blood circulatory system.
i. Arteries are thick-walled and have narrow lumen as compared to veins.
ii. Angina is acute chest pain when the blood circulation to the brain is reduced.
iii. Persons with blood group AB can donate blood to. any person with any blood group under ABO system.
iv. Calcium ions play a very important role in blood clotting.
Which two of the above statements are correct?

  1. i and iv

  2. i and ii

  3. ii and iii

  4. iii and iv


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

i. Arteries have thick, elastic walls and narrow lumen while veins have thinner, scarcely elastic walls and wide lumen.

ii. Angina Pectoris is a pain in the chest due to deprived oxygen the heart muscle experience constricting pain. This is not a fatal condition and the pain passes off quickly.
iii. Persons with blood group AB is a universal recipients. It has both the antigens A and B but no bodies.
iv.  During clot, Thromboplastin helps in the formation of an enzyme prothrombinase. This enzyme inactivates heparin and it also converts the inactive plasma protein prothrombin into its active form, thrombin. Both changes require calcium ions.
So, the correct answer is 'i and iv'.

Which of the following statements is incorrect?

  1. Veins are typically larger in diameter than arteries.

  2. Because of their small size, blood flows more rapidly in capillaries than in other parts of circulatory system.

  3. Walls of arteries are elastic enabling them to stretch and shrink during changes in blood pressure.

  4. Veins contain more blood than any other part of circulatory system.


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

A. Arteries have thick, elastic walls and narrow lumen while veins have thinner, scarcely elastic walls and wide lumen.

B. Arteries branch out into smaller and thinner blood vessels called arterioles. these divide into still smaller vessels to provide blood to all the cells. The thinnest blood vessels are called capillaries. The flow of blood is very slow in capillaries.
C. The walls of arteries are a muscular and elastic coat. It consists of unstriated muscle fibres with some yellow elastic fibres are arranged in a circular manner. It holds the blood vessel open. This layer determines the amount of supply of blood to an organ and it maintains the blood pressure.
D. Veins bring back blood from the tissues and organs to the heart. The blood in veins flows under less pressure than that in arteries. Therefore, veins can accommodate more blood.
So, the correct answer is 'Because of their small size, blood flows rapidly in capillaries than in other parts of circulatory system'.

In mammals, veins differ from arteries in having

  1. Thicker walls

  2. Deeply present

  3. Carry blood away from heart

  4. Internal valves


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Veins carry deoxygenated blood (with the exception of pulmonary veins and umbilical vein) from different parts of the body to the heart. They have thin, elastic muscle layer with semilunar valves that prevent the blood from flowing in the opposite direction. 

So, the correct answer is option D.

The vein that does not directly open into the heart is:

  1. Pulmonary vein

  2. postcaval vein

  3. Precaval vein

  4. Posterior mesentric vein


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

  • The pulmonary vein opens directly into the left atrium while postcaval and precaval veins into the right atrium.
  • The posterior mesenteric vein is a blood vessel that drains blood from the small intestine (jejunum and ileum). At its termination behind the neck of the pancreas, it combines with the splenic vein to form the hepatic portal vein and hence does not open into the heart.
So, the correct option is 'Posterior mesenteric vein'.

Arteries carry oxygenated blood,except

  1. Coronary artery

  2. Hepatic artery

  3. Aorta

  4. Pulmonary artery


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
  • Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the tissues, except for pulmonary arteries, which carry blood to the lungs for oxygenation (usually veins carry deoxygenated blood to the heart but the pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood as well).

So, the correct answer is 'Pulmonary artery'.

  2. Narrow lumen

  3. Valves that control direction of blood flow opposite to heart

  4. Valves that control direction of blood flow towards heart


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Veins drain capillaries in the tissues and organs and return the blood to the heart. Veins have a unique structural feature which is not present in arteries. They are equipped with one way valves, that prevent the back flow of blood.

In which of the following character a vein differs from an artery?

  1. Having valves to control flow of blood

  2. Having narrow lumen

  3. Having muscular wall

  4. Having pigmented wall to give dark look


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Arteries carry blood from the ventricles (pumping chambers) of the heart out to the capillaries in organs and tissue. The smallest arteries are called arterioles.Veins drain capillaries in the tissues and organs and return the blood to the heart. The smallest veins are the venules.
Veins have a unique structural feature not present in arteries. They are equipped with one-way valves that prevent the backflow of blood.

So, the correct answer is option A.

An artery can be distinguished from a vein in having

  1. Thicker wall

  2. Oxygenated blood

  3. More haemoglobin

  4. Both A and B


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
  • An artery carries oxygenated blood from the heart to different parts of the body. It has thick walls that allow it to withstand the high pressure of the blood.
  • Veins carry the deoxygenated blood from the different parts of the body to the heart which is further carried by the pulmonary artery for oxygenation. The veins have thin and elastic walls.
So, the correct answer is option D.

Arteries are the

  1. Blood vessels which carry only oxygenated blood

  2. Blood vessels which carry only deoxygenated blood

  3. Blood vessels which carry blood from the heart to different organs of the body

  4. Blood vessels which carry blood from different organs of the body to the heart


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the tissues, except for pulmonary arteries, which carry blood to the lungs for oxygenation (usually veins carry deoxygenated blood to the heart but the pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood as well.
So, the correct option is 'Blood vessels which carry blood from the heart to different organs of the body'.

Deoxygenated blood

  1. Flows to lungs from the left side of the heart.

  2. Flows to lungs from the right side of the heart.

  3. Flows to right side of the heart from the lungs.

  4. Flows to left side of the heart from the.lungs.


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
Deoxygenated blood leaves the heart, goes to the lungs, and then re-enters the heart. Deoxygenated blood leaves through the right ventricle through the pulmonary artery. From the right atrium, the blood is pumped through the tricuspid valve (or right atrioventricular valve), into the right ventricle.
So, the correct option is 'Flows to lungs from the right side of the heart'

In which of the following ways do the veins differ from the arteries in mammals?

  1. Thicker walls

  2. Deeply present

  3. Carry blood away from heart

  4. Internal valves


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Veins have thin walls as compared to arteries and are superficially located. They carry deoxygenated blood towards the heart and have valves which prevent blood from going backward. Arteries are elastic and thick because they need to transport high-pressure blood while in veins blood flows in low pressure. 

So, the correct answer is option D.

Blood vessels which carry blood from different organs of the body to the heart

  1. Veins

  2. Arteries

  3. Capillaries

  4. None of the above


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
  • These are blood vessels that take blood back to the heart,  this blood contains less oxygen and is rich in waste products that are to be excreted or removed from the body. Veins become larger as they get closer to the heart. The superior vena cava is the large vein that brings blood from the head and arms to the heart, and the inferior vena cava brings blood from the abdomen and legs into the heart.
So, the correct option is 'Veins'.

Blood vessel carrying blood from the lungs to the heart is

  1. Pulmonary artery

  2. Pulmonary vein

  3. Coronary artery

  4. None of the above


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
A blood vessel carrying blood from the lungs to the heart is pulmonary vein. There are four pulmonary veins, two from each lung that drains into the left atrium of the heart. Pulmonary veins are responsible for carrying oxygenated blood from the lungs back to the left atrium of the heart. This differentiates the pulmonary veins from other veins in the body, which are used to carry deoxygenated blood from the rest of the body back to the heart.
So, the correct answer is 'Pulmonary vein'.

The left auricle opens into left ventricle through an aperture guarded by

  1. Tricuspid valve

  2. Bisuspid valve

  3. Mitral valve

  4. Both B and C


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Bicuspid valve is another name for mitral valve. This valve is the valve between the left atrium and the left ventricle of the heart. It is composed of two triangular flaps, that is located between the left atrium and left ventricle and regulates blood flow between these chambers. 
Therefore, the correct answer is option D.

When the right ventricle contract the blood goes into

  1. Aorta

  2. Brain

  3. Pulmonary artery

  4. None


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

During ventricular systole. The pressure increases in the ventricles, thus forcing the oxygenated blood from left ventricle into systemic aorta and deoxygenated blood from right ventricle into pulmonary aorta.

Why do veins have thin walls as compared to arteries?

  1. Veins collect the blood from different organs and bring it back to the heart

  2. The blood in the vein is in low pressure than artery

  3. The blood in the vein is in high pressure than artery

  4. Both A and B


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Arteries carry blood from the heart to various organs of the body under high pressure so they have thick and elastic walls. Veins collect the blood from different organs and bring it back to the heart. The blood is no longer under pressure so, the walls are thin with valves to ensure that blood flows only in one direction.

So, the correct answer is option D.

Which of the following statements about blood vessels is true?

  1. Arterial walls are generally thicker and contain more elastic tissue than venous walls

  2. Blood flows most rapidly through capillaries

  3. Blood pressure in arteries is always lower than in veins

  4. Venous walls are generally the strongest of all blood vessels and veins may contain valves


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

In arteries the tunica media contains smooth muscle cells & elastic tissue, is thicker than that of veins so it can control and maintain blood pressure.

So, the correct option is 'Arterial walls are generally thicker and contain more elastic tissue than venous walls'.

Choose the correct answer from the alternatives given.
The exchange of materials between blood and interstitial fluid occurs only in:

  1. Capillaries

  2. Arteries

  3. Veins

  4. Arterioles


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Capillaries are the smallest of a body's blood vessels, measuring 5-10 μm in diameter, which connect arterioles and venules, and enable the interchange of water, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and many other nutrients and waste chemical substances between blood and surrounding tissues. 

So, the correct option is 'Capillaries'.

Choose the correct answer from the alternatives given.
Capillaries are structurally suited for the exchange of substances because:

  1. their walls are composed of only one layer of squamous cells

  2. velocity of blood flow is slow

  3. they form networks that increase the surface area for diffusion

  4. all of the above


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Capillaries are any of the minute blood vessels that form networks throughout the bodily tissues; it is through the capillaries that oxygen, nutrients, and wastes are exchanged between the blood and the tissues. The velocity of blood is slowest as it reaches capillaries making the easy exchange of substances. Their minimal thickness because of their single layer of squamous cells also helps in this. 

So, the correct option is 'their walls are composed of only one layer of squamous cells'. 

State whether the following statements are true or false.
Veins generally have thicker walls than arteries.

  1. True

  2. False


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Veins are flattened with thin walls and hence have a wide lumen. Arteries are round with relatively thick walls. So, they have a narrow lumen. 

So, the correct option is 'False'.

Vessels that take blood to the heart from the body are called-

  1. Arteries

  2. Veins

  3. Capillaries

  4. None


Correct Option: B

Acromion process is found in 

  1. Coxal bone

  2. Scapula

  3. Sternum

  4. Clavicle


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The acromial vein is actually a part of a greater network of veins located in the shoulder, near the acromion process in the scapula (shoulder blade). So the correct option is ' Scapula'.

Find the incorrect answer from the following?

  1. Veins are typically larger in diameter than arteries

  2. Because of their small size,capillaries contain blood that is moving more quickly than in other parts of the circulatory system

  3. The walls of arteries are elastic,enabling them to stretch and shrink during changes in blood pressure

  4. Veins contain more blood than any other part of the circulatory system


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

As blood is pumped by the heart directly into the aorta, the blood travels at 30 cm/sec. From the aorta, blood flows into the arteries and arterioles and, ultimately, to the capillary beds. As it reaches the capillary beds, the rate of flow is dramatically (one-thousand times) slower than the rate of flow in the aorta. 

So, the correct option is 'Because of their small size, capillaries contain blood that is moving more quickly than in other parts of the circulatory system'.

Pulmonary artery differs from pulmonary vein in having

  1. Thick wall

  2. Thin wall

  3. Valves

  4. Both (B) and (C)


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The blood in the pulmonary artery is under less pressure since it is only being pumped a short distance to the lungs and so does not need a thick wall. The aorta (which transports the blood over greater distances) receives blood under greater pressure from the powerful left ventricle and so needs a thicker wall. The pulmonary valve (pulmonic valve) is the semilunar valve of the heart that lies between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery. Valves are used to prevent backflow of blood. The pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left side of the heart, from the pulmonary circulation. The heart contraction is enough to keep the blood flowing as the distance between the lungs and back to the heart is minimal compared to the systemic circulation. So, the pressure of the heart exerting is enough to keep the blood in one direction.

Select the incorrect statements.
A. Arteries have thick elastic walls and veins have valves.
B. Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels supplying the tissues.
C. AV node is known as the pace setter of the heart.
D. Arteries carry blood towards the heart and veins carry blood away from the heart to different organs.

  1. A and B

  2. A and C

  3. C and D

  4. D only


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Arteries are blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart. While most arteries carry oxygenated blood, there are two exceptions to this, the pulmonary and the umbilical arteries. All veins carry blood towards the heart. 

Therefore, the correct answer is option D.

Artery supplying blood to pericardium is

  1. Brachial artery

  2. Vertebel artery

  3. Coronary artery

  4. Internal mammary artery.


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Visceral pericardium receives blood from coronary artery while parietal and fibrous pericardium get blood supply from internal thoracic (mammary artery).

Choose the correct answer from the alternatives given.
An artery is a vessel that carries:

  1. blood away from the heart

  2. blood towards the heart

  3. oxygenated blood

  4. deoxygenated blood


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
  • An artery is a vessel which is thick walled, carries oxygenated blood (except pulmonary artery) away from the heart.
  • While veins are thin-walled, carry deoxygenated blood (except pulmonary vein) towards the heart.
So, the correct option is 'Blood away from the heart'.

Choose the correct answer from the alternatives given.
Systole refers to the contraction of:

  1. major arteries

  2. SA node

  3. atria and ventricles

  4. all of these


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

The systole is the rhythmic contraction of the chambers of the heart (Atria and Ventricles) and diastole is the rhythmic relaxation of the chambers of the heart. The events occurring during one heartbeat is known as the cardiac cycle. During this cycle, the auricles and the ventricles of the heart rhythmically contract and relax.

So, the correct option is 'Atria and ventricles'.

Choose the correct answer from the alternatives given.
The only artery which carries deoxygenated blood is the:

  1. pulmonary artery

  2. renal artery

  3. coronary artery

  4. carotid artery


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Pulmonary artery and the Pulmonary vein are a set of blood vessels that are related to the lungs. The Pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs for oxygenation, this oxygenated blood is carried back to the heart by the Pulmonary vein for systemic circulation i.e. for ​circulation to different parts of the body.

So, the correct option is 'Pulmonary artery'.

Choose the correct answer from the alternatives given.
A vein differs from an artery in having

  1. strong muscular walls

  2. valves to control the direction of flow of blood towards the heart

  3. valves to control the direction of flow of blood opposite to the heart

  4. narrow lumen


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Veins are less muscular than arteries, contain valves to help keep blood flowing in the right direction, towards the heart. They carry deoxygenated blood from tissues back to the heart. 

So, the correct option is 'valves to control the direction of flow of blood towards the heart'.

Choose the correct answer from the alternatives given.
Water enters capillaries on the venule side as a result of:

  1. higher red blood cell concentration on this side

  2. increased blood pressure on this side

  3. an osmotic pressure gradient

  4. active transport from tissue fluid


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

  • Materials, including oxygen, carbon dioxide, amino acids, sugars, and water, are exchanged between the blood and tissue fluid within blood vessels known as capillaries.
  • Blood pressure and osmotic pressure control the pressure in a capillary. Blood pressure, caused by the heart’s beating, is higher at the arterial end of the capillary and causes water to exit at that point.
  • On the other hand, blood pressure is weak by the time blood reaches the venous end of the capillary, and osmotic pressure becomes higher, causing water to enter at that end.
So, the correct option is 'An osmotic pressure gradient'.

Choose the correct answer from the alternatives given.
Which of the following is the bodys largest blood vessel?

  1. Aorta

  2. Capillaries

  3. Pulmonary vein

  4. Heart


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Aorta is the largest artery present in the body. It originates from the left ventricle and extends down to the abdomen. The aorta distributes oxygenated blood to all parts of the body.

So, the correct option is 'Aorta'.

The right side of the heart

  1. Pumps blood to the rest of the body

  2. Receives blood from the rest of the body

  3. Receives blood from the lungs

  4. None of the above


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
The right side of our heart receives oxygen-poor blood from our veins and pumps it to your lungs, where the blood picks up oxygen and gets rid of carbon dioxide. The left side of our heart receives oxygen-rich blood from our lungs and pumps it through our arteries to the rest of our body.
So, the correct option is 'Receives blood from the rest of the body'.

Human heart represents

  1. Double circulation

  2. Systemic circulation

  3. Pulmonary circulation

  4. None of the above


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The human heart allows the complete separation of the deoxygenated and oxygenated blood. It has four chambers, the upper two atria and the lower two ventricles. The right side chambers (right atrium and right ventricle) are concerned with the deoxygenated blood. The right atrium receives the deoxygenated blood from the body and the right ventricle pumps it to the lungs. This is the pulmonary circulation. It completes when the left side chamber of the left atrium receives it. So, the left side chambers are concerned with oxygenated blood. The left ventricle then transports it to the rest of the body in the systemic circulation. So, the pulmonary and the systemic circulation maintained by the human heart constitute the double circulation of the blood.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Double circulation'

In the human body, the blood transports

  1. Oxygen

  2. Nutrients

  3. Carbon dioxide

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
The human circulatory system consists of a muscular four-chambered heart, a network of closed branching blood vessels and blood, the fluid which is circulated. Blood is a special connective tissue consisting of a fluid matrix, plasma, and formed elements. It is pumped by the heart to all over the body. In the human body, the blood transports oxygen, nutrients and carbon dioxide.
So, the correct answer is 'All of the above'.

The component of the circulatory system is/are

  1. Arteries

  2. Heart

  3. Veins

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Circulatory system or cardiovascular system is the organ system that helps to transport oxygen, nutrients, hormones etc to all the cell of the body. It consists of heart, veins, arteries, capillaries. Thus, the correct answer is option D.

Vasoconstriction mainly causes

  1. Increase in heart beat

  2. Decrease in heart beat

  3. Increase in blood pressure

  4. Decrease in blood pressure.


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Vaso means vessels and constriction means narrowing, therefore, narrowing of blood vessels results in vasoconstriction. Normally, it is done due to the shrinking of smooth muscles of vessels to react according to the environment by raising blood pressure for stabilization, prevent loss of heat, control blood flow in body, transfer nutrients and prevent from blood and fluid loss but in some cases it can also be a severe health problem leading to hypertension or high bp.

So the correct option is 'Increase in blood pressure'

Circulatory system does not help in

  1. Transport of gases

  2. Transport of nutrients

  3. Transport of hormones

  4. Passage of impulses.


Correct Option: D

The pumping action of the heart is due to the 

  1. Bones of the heart

  2. Muscles of the heart

  3. Spaces in the heart

  4. Both B and C


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The Human circulatory system consists of a muscular four-chambered heart, a network of closed branching blood vessels and blood, the fluid which is circulated. The heart is a  4 chambered muscular organ present in the thoracic cavity in between the lungs. it does not have any bones. The chambers(spaces) of blood are filled with blood.T he muscular action of heart walls pump blood throughout the body through blood vessels. Hence the pumping 

So, the correct answer is 'Both B and C'.
