Body Fluids and Circulation

If due to some injury the chordae tendineae of the tricuspid valve of the human heart is partially non-functional, what will be the immediate effect?

1. The flow of blood into the aorta will be slowed down
2. The 'pacemaker' will stop working
3. The blood will tend to flow back into the left atrium
4. The flow of blood into the pulmonary artery will be reduced

There is no DNA in

1. mature RBCs
2. a mature spermatozoan
3. hair root
4. an enucleated ovum.

In a standard ECG which one of the following alphabets is the correct representation of the respective activity of the human heart?

1. S - start of systole
2. T - end of diastole
3. P - depolarisation of the atria
4. R - repolarisation of ventricles

Globulins contained in human blood plasma are primarily involved in

1. osmotic balance of body fluids
2. oxygen transport in the blood
3. clotting of blood
4. defence mechanisms of body.

Compared to blood our lymph has

1. plasma without proteins
2. more WBCs and no RBCs
3. more RBCs and less WBCs
4. no plasma.

In humans, blood passes from the post caval to the diastolic right atrium of heart due to

1. stimulation of the sino auricular node
2. pressure difference between the post caval and atrium
3. pushing open of the venous valves
4. suction pull
