False

The antigen-antibody is an example of the regulation function of blood

Less; wider

The systemic veins carry blood that is ___ oxygen

Low in

Which of the artery types contain the internal and external elastic laminae

Muscular arteries

Imagine taking a sampling of the cells present at the site of a localized bacterial infection that just began. The primary leukocyte present is likely to be the

Neutrophil

Usually the most numerous of the leukocytes are the

Neutrophils

A myeloid stem is isolated from a patient and cultures in a lab. Which leukocyte types can be produced from this cell

Neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils, and monocytes

Which of the cardiovascular system's has deoxygenated blood in its arteries

Pulmonary circuit

In an EKG, the T wave denotes

Repolarization of the ventricles

Very large vessels require their own blood supply, and this is provided by a network of small arteries called the vasa vasorum

True

The right border of the heart is supplied by the

Which term best describes the function of blood when considering the presence of carbon dioxide and endocrine hormones

Transportation

About seventy percent of the ventricle filling is achieved passively without the contraction of the artia

Erythrocytes exhibit a limited lifespan due to their inability to synthesize the proteins necessary to repair themselves

True

Like the right atrium, the left atrium has pectinate muscles along its anterior wall

True

Macrophages are the converted monocytes that phagocytize bacteria, cell fragments, dead cells, and debris

True

No matter the cause, hypertrophy of the heart causes it to work less efficiently

True

Systolic pressure is greater than diastolic pressure due to the force generated by ventricular contraction

True

The ABO and Rh blood types are inherited independently of each other

True

The elastic (or conduction arteries) conduct blood from the heart to the smaller muscular arteries

True

The gap junctions of intercalated discs provide a low-resistance pathway across the membranes of adjoining cardiac muscle fibers
