Free Body Fluids And Circulation (Daily Quiz: 8) Time:

Question-1

Adult human RBCs are enucleated. Which of the following statements (s) is/are most appropriate explanation for this feature?
  1. They do not need to reproduce
  2. They are somatic cells
  3. They do not metabolize
  4. All their internal space is available for oxygen transport

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)

Explanation:

Answer: (d)

In human RBCs, nucleus get degenerates during maturation and it provide more space for oxygen-carrying pigment (haemoglobin). It lacks many cell organelles including mitochondria so respires anaerobically.


Question-2

A vein possesses a large lumen because

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)

Explanation:

Answer: (d)

Wall of a vein consists of tunic externa, tunica media and tunica interna. All these layers are also present in the wall of artery. However, in the wall of a vein, the elastic membrane of tunica interna is relatively thin, and muscle fibres and elastic fibres in tunica media are fewer. Therefore, a vein has a thinner and less elastic wall but a wider cavity than an artery of the same diameter.


Question-3

Mammals are said to have double circulation. It means

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)


Question-4

Assertion :
SAN is called the pacemaker of heart.
Reason :
The SAN can generate the maximum number of action potentials and is responsible for initiating and maintaining the rhythmic contractile activity of the heart.

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)

Explanation:

Answer: (b)

SAN is the natural pacemaker of the heart. It is one of the major elements in the cardiac conduction system, the system that controls the heart rate. The SA node consists of a cluster of cells that are situated in the upper part of the wall of the right atrium where the electrical impulses are generated. The electrical signal generated by the SA node moves from cell to cell down through the heart until it reaches the atrioventricular node (AV node). The AV node serves as a gate that slows the electrical current before the signal is permitted to pass down to the ventricles. This delay ensures that the atria have a chance to fully contract before the ventricles are stimulated. After passing the AV node, the electrical current travels to the ventricles along special fibers embedded in the walls of the lower part of the heart.


Question-5

QRST is related with

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)

Explanation:

Answer: (a)

It is also called ventricular complex.
