Weekly Quiz Competition

Question 1
1 / -0

Which of the following has the similarities with the lymph?

A
Red blood cells

B
Blood plasma

C
White blood cells

D
Nutrients

Solution

Since the lymph is derived from the interstitial fluid, its composition continually changes as the blood and the surrounding cells continually exchange substances with the interstitial fluid. It is generally similar to blood plasma, which is the fluid component of blood. Lymph returns proteins and excess interstitial fluid to the blood stream. Lymph may pick up bacteria and bring them to lymph nodes, where they are destroyed. Metastatic cancer cells can also be transported via lymph. Lymph also transports fats from the digestive system (beginning in the lacteals) to the blood via chylomicrons.

So, the correct option is 'Blood plasma'.
Question 2
1 / -0

Which of the following is not a function of lymph?

A
Transport of oxygen, hormones and nutrients to different parts of the body .

B
Prevention of infections due to microbes.

C
Absorption of vitamins and minerals.

D
Conduction of nerve impulses.

Solution

Lymph supplies oxygen, nutrients, hormones, etc to the cells and removes metabolic wastes from the cells. It destroys microorganisms in the lymph nodes and prevents spreading of infections. It absorbs and transports fat, fat soluble vitamins and minerals from intestine. It maintains the volume of blood. It returns proteins and fluids to the blood.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
Question 3
1 / -0

Lymph helps is the absorption of

A
Carbohydrate

B
Proteins

C
Fats

D
All of the above

Solution

Lymph is an integral part of the circulatory system which plays an important role in the defensive mechanism. It does not absorb vitamins and minerals but fats from the intestinal villi.
So, the correct answer is option C.
Question 4
1 / -0

_______ involves circulation of blood to all parts of the body except lungs.

A
Cardiovascular circulation

B
Pulmonary circulation

C
Systemic circulation

D
All of the above

Solution

The course of the blood between the heart and other parts of the body except lungs is called systemic circulation.
The circulation of blood between the heart and the lungs is called the pulmonary circulation.
So, the correct answer is option C.
Question 5
1 / -0

Which is not the function of lymph?

A
Transports RBCs

B
Drains excess tissue fluid

C
Transports lymphocytes and antibodies

D
Carries digested and absorbed fats from intestine

Solution

Lymph is a tissue fluid that transports lymphocytes, antibodies, carries digested and absorbed fats from intestine. It drains excess tissue fluid from intercellular spaces back into but, lymph does not transport RBCs. RBCs are transported by blood.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
Question 6
1 / -0

The vein which is formed from the capillaries of an organ and terminates into capillaries in some other organ before entering the heart is called as

A
Pulmonary vein

B
Coronary vein

C
Portal vein

D
Systemic vein

Solution

The system of blood vessels consisting of the hepatic portal vein with its tributaries and branches is called as the portal system. This mixture percolates through the sinusoids and collects in a central vein which drains into the hepatic vein. The hepatic portal vein is a blood vessel that conducts blood from the gastrointestinal tract and spleen to the liver.
Question 7
1 / -0

Which vitamin helps in blood coagulation?

A
Vitamin K

B
Vitamin C

C
Vitamin A

D
Vitamin D

Solution

Vitamin K catalyzes synthesis of prothrombin and is also required for synthesis of other blood clotting factor. It's deficiency causes hemorrhagic disease, specifically in new born. This makes option A correct.
Vitamin C is involved in synthesis of collagen, absorption and transport of iron and is also involved in folacin metabolism. Its deficiency causes scurvy, which is characterized by haemorrhages and bleeding gums. This makes option B incorrect.
Vitamin A is involved in maintenance of epithelial cells, synthesis of rhodopsin (pigment responsible for dim light vision) and is also required for healing, growth, and normal immune function. Its deficiency causes xeropthalmia (night blindness) which makes option C incorrect.
Vitamin D is involved in bone formation and its deficiency causes rickets, which is characterized by enlargement of epiphysis, cranial bossing and bowed legs. This makes option D incorrect.
Question 8
1 / -0

Which of the following conditions will occur if the RBCs are placed in a hypotonic solution?

A
Shrink due to osmotic water loss

B
Rupture due to the influx of water

C
Maintain their shape due to the cell wall

D
Swell but avoid rupturing due to the cell wall

E
Pump out excess water with the contractile vacuole

Solution

Hypotonic solution is any solution which has low solute molecules and more water molecules. If RBCs are placed in a hypotonic solution, water moves into the cell from the high concentration of solvent to less concentration. Due to the influx of water cell swells and finally burst.
So, the correct answer is option B.
Question 9
1 / -0

Normal pathway of blood flow is

A
Right ventricle to aorta

B
Pulmonary veins to left atrium

C
Inferior vena cava to left atrium

D
Pulmonary veins to left ventricle

E
Left ventricle to pulmonary artery

Solution

The Oxygenated (oxygen-rich)blood travels from the lungs to the heart into left atrium , with the help of pulmonary vein ; where it is then pumped throughout the body. Pulmonary vein is the only vein which carries oxygenated blood.Bicuspid valve helps to flow blood to left ventricle and aortic valve opens and arteries carries oxygenated blood to all organs. Inferior vena cava, superior vena cava and coronary sinus collects deoxygenated blood from all parts and pumped into right atrium. Tricuspid valve helps to release blood from right atrium to right ventrical and deoxygenated blood carried to lungs with help of pulmonary artery, it is the only artery carries deoxygenated blood to lungs from heart.
Question 10
1 / -0

It is essential for venous blood while travelling from kidneys towards heart to pass through

A
Iliac vein

B
Inferior vena cava

C
Liver

D
Hepatic vein

E
Pulmonary vein

Solution

The inferior vena cava is a vein. It carries deoxygenated blood from the lower half of the body to the right atrium of the heart. The corresponding vein that carries deoxygenated blood from the upper half of the body is the superior vena cava.
So, the correct option is 'Inferior vena cava'.
