Each heart beat generates how many pulse in the arteries

biology transportation in plants and circulation in animals heart beat cardiac cycle heart, blood vessels and cardiac cycle

  1. Two

  2. Three

  3. One

  4. Five

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

This sequential event in the heart which is cyclically repeated is called the cardiac cycle. Each cardiac cycle consists of systole and diastole of both the atria and ventricles. Each cardiac cycle represents one heartbeat. The number of heart beats per minute in resting person is called as normal heart rate. The normal heart rate is about 72 beats per minute. The heart rate is same as pulse rate because the contractions of the heart cause an increase in blood pressure in arteries that leads to noticeable pulse. Hence each heartbeat generates one pulse in the arteries.

So, the correct answer is 'One'.

The volume of blood each ventricle pumps out during a cardiac cycle is about

  1. 70 ml

  2. 5000 ml

  3. 71 ml

  4. 1200 ml

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The cardiac output of a normal adult healthy person at rest is almost 5 litres. The volume of blood pumped out of the left ventricle in one beat is called the stroke volume. It is 70 ml.

When we are at rest what will happen to the heart beat?

  1. Increase

  2. Decrease

  3. Remain same

  4. Firsts decrease and then increase

Correct Option: C

The second heart sound (dubb) is associated with the closure of

biology transportation in plants and circulation in animals heart beat cardiac cycle heart, blood vessels and cardiac cycle

  1. Tricuspid valve

  2. Semilunar valves

  3. Bicuspid valve

  4. Tricuspid and bicuspid valves

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:
The closing of different valves in the heart produces different characteristic sound commonly known as the lub-dub sounds. The lub sound is the first sound of the heart. The dub sound is the second sound of the heart that is produced by the closing of the semilunar valves in the heart.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Semilunar valves.'

'X' is the rhythmic contraction and relaxation in the aorta and its main arteries. What is X?

  1. Heart beat

  2. Heart rate

  3. Pulse

  4. Cardiac output

Show answer
Correct Option: C

If the systolic pressure is $120$mm Hg and diastolic pressure is $80$mm Hg, the pulse pressure is $80$mm Hg, the pulse pressure is ______.

biology transportation in plants and circulation in animals heart beat cardiac cycle heart, blood vessels and cardiac cycle

  1. $120\times80 = 9600$mm Hg

  2. $120+80 = 200$ mm Hg

  3. $120 - 80 = 40$mm Hg

  4. $\frac{120}{40} = 3$mm Hg

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:
The pulse pressure can be defined as the difference between the diastolic and systolic pressure of an individual’s heart. If the normal diastolic and systolic pressure of the adult human heart is 120 mm Hg and 80 mm Hg, respectively then the pulse pressure is 120 - 80 = 40 mm Hg.
Thus, the correct answer is '120−80=40mm Hg.'

An adult human with average health has systolic and diastolic pressures as

biology transportation in plants and circulation in animals heart beat cardiac cycle heart, blood vessels and cardiac cycle

  1. 120 mm Hg and 80 mm Hg

  2. 50 mm Hg and 80 mm Hg

  3. 80 mm Hg and 80 mm Hg

  4. 70 m Hg and 120 mm Hg

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Blood pressure is the pressure against the walls of the blood vessels produced by the discharge of blood into them by contraction of the left ventricle.

Systolic pressure: The temporary rise in BP during the contraction of the heart is called systolic pressure.
Diastolic pressure: The temporary fall in BP during the relaxation of the heart is termed as diastolic pressure.
For a healthy resting adult person, the average systolic/ diastolic pressures are 120/80 mm Hg in arteries near the heart.
So, the correct answer is '120 mm Hg and 80 mm Hg'.

Which one of the following is a matching pair?

biology transportation in plants and circulation in animals heart beat cardiac cycle heart, blood vessels and cardiac cycle

  1. Lubb - sharp closure of AV valves at the beginning of ventricular systole

  2. Dub - sudden opening of semilunar valves at the beginning of ventricular diastole

  3. Pulsation of the radial artery - valves in the blood vessels

  4. Initiation of the heart beat - Purkinje fibres

Show answer
Correct Option: A

The first heart sound is produced when

biology transportation in plants and circulation in animals heart beat cardiac cycle heart, blood vessels and cardiac cycle

  1. Intraventricular pressure decreases

  2. Semilunar valve snaps shut

  3. Bicuspid and tricuspid close quickly

  4. Diastole begins

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

first heart sound is produced by the closing of the atrioventricular valves . The first heart sound, or S1, forms the "lub" of "lub-dub" and is composed of components M1 (mitral valve closure) and T1 (tricuspid valve closure). Normally M1 precedes T1 slightly. It is caused by the closure of the atrioventricular valves, i.e. tricuspid and mitral (bicuspid), at the beginning of ventricular contraction, or systole. So, the correct option is C.( Bicuspid and tricuspid close quickly )

In a normal human adult (at resting position), how much blood does the heart pump per minute?

biology simple nutrients into cells heart beat cardiac cycle heart, blood vessels and cardiac cycle

  1. 5 litre

  2. 3 litre

  3. 1 litre

  4. 7 litre

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The blood travels around the body and back to the heart in about one minute if the person is at rest. The heart beats 70 times a minute, with each beat the heart pumps 60 to 90 mililiters (2 to 3 ounces) of blood out of the heart. It can move 5 liters of blood in one minute and 7600 liters (2000 gallons) per day. So, the correct option is "A" (5 Litre).
