A person went to a cardiologist complaining about being tachycardic. Upon examination, his heart rate was 100 beats per minute; his end-diastolic volume was 100 mL, whereas end-systolic volume was 40 mL, whereas end-systolic volume was 40 mL. what was his calculated cardiac output per minute?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
6 L
Option C (6 L) is correct because stroke volume is the difference between end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes (100 mL - 40 mL = 60 mL). Cardiac output is stroke volume multiplied by heart rate, so cardiac output = 60 mL/beat * 100 beats/min = 6000 mL/min = 6 L/min.

A blockage in aortic valve would directly reduce blood flow to the ______.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Lungs
Option A (Heart) is incorrect. Option C (Lungs) is correct because the aortic valve controls blood flow from the left ventricle into the aorta, which supplies oxygenated blood to the systemic circulation. A blockage would reduce blood flow to the body's organs, including the lungs.
