1

Through which vessel does deoxygenated blood enter the heart?

1

Into which chamber does oxygenated blood enter the heart?

1

Out of which chamber does deoxygenated blood leave the heart?

1

Through which vessel does oxygenated blood leave the heart?

1

True or false? The muscle in the wall of the right hand side of the heart is thicker to pump blood to the lungs.

1

True or false? Cardiac muscle is supplied with oxygen by the coronary arteries.

1

Which of these are features of arteries?

1

Which of these are features of veins?

1

What is a capillary?

1

True or false? Stents are metal meshes filled with a balloon which are used to widen arteries with fatty deposits on them.

1

Which of these is a way of dealing with badly blocked arteries, where stents do not work?

1

True or false? Plasma in the blood is coloured bright red.

1

Which protein is used to transport oxygen in erythrocytes (red blood cells)?

1

True or false? Red blood cells maximise their surface area by being shaped as a biconcave disc.

1

True or false? Platelets are responsible for blood clotting, converting fibrinogen into fibrin which forms a mesh over wounds.

1

Which of these are types of artificial blood?

1

True or false? Using mechanical artificial hearts carries the risk of blood clotting in the heart.

1

Which vascular tissue in plants transports sugars made in photosynthesis?

1

Which vascular tissue in plants transports water and mineral ions?

1

True or false? The bark of trees is actually made of lignified, dead, xylem cells.
