A. The pulmonary artery
B. The pulmonary vein
C. The aorta
Correct answer is the pulmonary artery. The pulmonary artery is the only artery that carries deoxygenated blood from the heart.
Question 2: What is it called when plaque builds up in the arteries? What is it called when plaque builds up in the arteries?
A. Atherosclerosis
B. An embolism
C. Myocardial Infarction
Answer: Atherosclerosis
Question 3: True or False: The tricuspid valve is located on the right side of the heart?
Answer: True
Question 4: What part of the heart delivers oxygen rich blood to the systemic circulation?
A. Tricuspid Valve
B. Aorta
C. Inferior Vena Cava
D. Pulmonary Vein
Answer: Aorta
Question 5: True or False: Blood flows in the following sequence: Superior and Inferior Vena Cava, right atrium, bicuspid valve, right ventricle, pulmonic valve, pulmonary artery, lungs, pulmonary vein, left atrium, tricuspid valve, left ventricle, aortic valve, aorta, systemic circulation.
Answer: False – The bicuspid and tricuspid valve are backwards in the cardiac blood flow cycle
