Which of the following is a vascular endothelium derived releasing factor to relax vasomotor tone thereby increasing capillary perfusion;
a. nitric oxide (NO) *
b. nitrous oxide (N2O)
c. oxygen (O2)
d. carbon dioxide (CO2)
e. hydrochloric acid (HCl)
Heart 5, Internal regulation of myocardial contraction
The electrical activity for the contraction of the heart is initiated by the:
a. sinoatrial node *
b. atrioventircular node
c. medulla oblongata
d. myocytes
The only point of electrical conduction between the atria and the ventricles is provided by the;
a. Sinoatrial node
b. Atrioventricular node
c. Atrioventricular bundle *
d. Purkinje fibres
The electrical impulses from the atrial myocardium are collected by the
a. Sinoatrial node
b. Atrioventricular node *
c. Atrioventricular bundle
d. Purkinje fibres
Sympathetic stimulation of the heart will
a. Increase heart rate *
b. Reduce heart rate
c. Have no effect on heart rate
d. Reduce stroke volume
Parasympathetic stimulation of the heart is provided via the;
a. Phrenic nerves
b. Thoracic spinal nerves
c. Cervical spinal nerves
d. Vagus nerve *
Blood vessels 5, Three types of capillaries

d. smooth muscles
e. skeletal muscles
Large proteins are easily able to pass through;
a. tight junctions
b. continuous capillaries
c. fenestrated capillaries

e. none of the above are correct
Heart 6, External modification of contractility
The cardiac autonomic centre is located in the;
a. cerebral cortex
b. occipital lobe
c. pons
d. medulla oblongata *
e. spinal cord
Sympathetic neurological stimulation of the heart, via cardiac accelerator nerves travels to the heat via the
a. cervical spinal nerves
b. thoracic spinal nerves *
c. vagus nerves
d. left glossopharyngeal nerve
Sympathetic activity stimulates the sinoatrial node and atrioventricular node via the chemical transmitter:
a. serotonin (5HT)
b. noradrenaline *
c. acetylcholine
d. glutamate (glutamic acid)
e. GABA
Choose one true statement;
a. parasympathetic stimulation dilates the coronary arteries
b. noradrenaline stimulates (agonises) beta 1 adrenergic receptors *
c. acetylcholine stimulates (agonises) beta 1 adrenergic receptors
d. sympathetic stimulation will slow the rate of electrical transmission through the atrioventricular node
e. none of the above are correct
Choose one true statement;
a. cardiac output can be always be maintained if venous return is reduced
b. a positive inotropic effect will reduce cardiac output
c. sympathetic stimulation will constrict coronary arteries
d. increased heart rate is a chronotropic effect *
e. increased strength of ventricular contraction is a chronotropic effect

Much better than my actual lecturers. Thank you so much! I’m sure all nursing/ medical students will appreciate it 🙏🏻

[@lindasun5178]

I love this essence of our circulation system.

Dr. John Campbell sir you are making complicated topic very simple that can be graphs by even non medical background persons who r interested to know about our body 22/06/2021💐

[@nichollewalton8318]

Thank you so much for simplifying this.

[@aidanazhekishova6431]

Thank you Dr John, God bless you !

[@sofiakawasmi7444]

Thank you for sharing this Dr. Campbell, your lectures are excellent 🙂

[@MuhammadAli-jd2ut]

You should continue these amazing lectures.

[@abbie4300]

First year bsc paramedic science student here, live you Videos

[@Campbellteaching]

Excellent

[@naimanachelle8791]

Thank you Dr. Campbell your videos help me alot❤👍👍

[@rimm7591]

You're the best sir ! Please keep up 😄

[@nehachauhan9546]

Awesome and very helpful video...thank you sir..

[@ashishkansara3574]

The best Explanation sir thank you very much.

[@perfectlyinsane6308]

Thank you so much. This video helps me a lot

When you take a vitamin like B12, how is that processed by the body? If you eat it, I assume it comes in through the gastrointestinal tract. Under-liked video here. Wow. This is a gem of a informational video about this subject. I know nothing about this stuff.

[@siblingsworld7851]

Thank you doctor... I really appreciate the way you simplified it down, and made sure that is easy for everyone to understand. Also, just a quick question- Does each part of the body (such as the liver) have it's own artery and vein??

[@mal3020]

Thank you so much.....🙏

[@Haqq465]

well explained

[@qasimkhan-qv9hi]

Good

[@swampy2067]

Hi Dr John, love the tutorials, well explained even a layman like myself get them. One question I have, when the heart is in asystole at what rate does the diastolic BP decay. BR Andy

[@rohineechauhan6257]

Thank u so much sir From india
