Question 1

Which of the following best describes the primary function of the cardiovascular system as covered in BMS 700 Human Anatomy and Physiology II?

Accepted Answer

To transport nutrients, gases, and wastes throughout the body.

Question 2

A patient presents with edema and high blood pressure. Which system is most likely disrupted, and what is a key physiological process involved?

Accepted Answer

Lymphatic/immune system; fluid balance and immune response.

Question 3

During exercise, which organ system is primarily responsible for increasing oxygen delivery to tissues, and what is the main mechanism?

Accepted Answer

Cardiovascular system; increased heart rate and cardiac output.

Question 4

Which equation best represents cardiac output, a key concept in the cardiovascular system?

Accepted Answer

$$CO = HR 	imes SV$$

Question 5

A patient with metabolic acidosis is admitted to the hospital. Which organ system is most directly involved in compensating for this acid-base imbalance?

Accepted Answer

Urinary system; increased excretion of hydrogen ions.

Question 6

Which of the following is a correct sequence for the flow of blood through the heart?

Accepted Answer

Right atrium → Right ventricle → Pulmonary artery → Lungs → Left atrium → Left ventricle → Aorta

Question 7

Which formula is used to calculate mean arterial pressure (MAP)?

Accepted Answer

$$MAP = \frac{1}{3} (SBP - DBP) + DBP$$

Question 8

A patient is unable to absorb nutrients efficiently due to damage in the small intestine. Which system is directly affected and what is a likely consequence?

Accepted Answer

Digestive system; malnutrition and energy deficiency.

Question 9

Which of the following best explains the role of the respiratory system in acid-base balance?

Accepted Answer

It controls the rate of carbon dioxide removal through ventilation.

Question 10

A patient with chronic kidney disease is at risk for which of the following disruptions in homeostasis?

Accepted Answer

Fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base imbalance.

Question 11

Which equation represents the relationship between energy intake, energy expenditure, and body weight?

Accepted Answer

$$\Delta BW = EI - EE$$

Question 12

Which organ system is primarily responsible for the removal of metabolic wastes from the blood?

Accepted Answer

Urinary system.

Question 13

A patient with a blocked lymphatic vessel in the leg is most likely to experience which symptom?

Accepted Answer

Edema due to impaired fluid drainage.

Question 14

Which of the following is a direct effect of aldosterone on the kidneys?

Accepted Answer

Increased sodium reabsorption.

Question 15

A patient is hyperventilating due to anxiety. What is the expected change in blood pH and why?

Accepted Answer

Increase in pH due to excessive loss of $$CO_2.$$

Question 16

Which of the following best describes the role of the reproductive system in human physiology?

Accepted Answer

Production of gametes and regulation of human development.

Question 17

A patient with severe diarrhea is at risk for which type of acid-base disturbance?

Accepted Answer

Metabolic acidosis due to loss of bicarbonate.

Question 18

Which of the following is a correct statement about homeostasis?

Accepted Answer

Homeostasis is the process by which the body maintains a stable internal environment.

Question 19

A patient with a deficiency in insulin production will most likely experience which physiological effect?

Accepted Answer

Elevated blood glucose levels due to impaired cellular uptake.

Question 20

Which of the following best explains the importance of the acid-base balance in the body?

Accepted Answer

It is essential for proper enzyme function and cellular metabolism.
