| 1. | Heart failure refers to the heart’s inability to pump sufficient blood, while cardiac arrest is when the heart stops beating entirely. |
| 2. | Heart failure only affects the ventricles, whereas cardiac arrest affects the atria. |
| 3. | Heart failure is reversible, while cardiac arrest is not. |
| 4. | Cardiac arrest is caused by hypertension, while heart failure is caused by valve malfunction. |
The lumen of arteries gets ________ because of the ________ of ________
| 1. | narrower, dissolution, fat, cholesterol and fibrous tissues. |
| 2. | narrower, deposition, fat, cholesterol and fibrous tissues. |
| 3. | wider, deposition, fat, cholesterol and fibrous tissues. |
| 4. | wider, dissolution, fat, cholesterol and fibrous tissues. |
The deposition of lipids on the wall lining the lumen of large and medium sized arteries is referred to as:
| 1. | Deep vein thrombosis |
| 2. | Stokes- Adams syndrome |
| 3. | Osteoporosis |
| 4. | Atherosclerosis |
Which of the following is incorrect?
| 1. | The blood pressure of 140/90 or above relates to hypertension |
| 2. | High blood pressure leads to heart diseases |
| 3. | High blood pressure affects vital organs like brain and kidney |
| 4. | The blood pressure of 120/80 indicates low blood pressure |
| Assertion (A): | Heart failure is sometimes called congestive heart failure. |
| Reason (R): | Congestion of the lungs is one of the main symptoms of this disease. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is true, but (R) is false. |
| 4. | (A) is false, but (R) is true. |
Inadequate supply of oxygen to heart muscles leads to a symptom of acute chest pain. This disorder of the circulatory system is identified as:
| 1. | Angina pectoris | 2. | Cardiac arrest |
| 3. | Heart failure | 4. | Coronary Heart Disease |
| 1. | Blood pressure is measured with an instrument called sphygmomanometer |
| 2. | If the blood pressure of an individual is 140/90 mm Hg or higher it shows hypertension |
| 3. | The normal systolic pressure is 120 mm Hg and diastolic pressure is 80 mm Hg |
| 4. | Hypertension is caused by vasodilation which results in increased resistance to blood flow |
| Column-I | Column-II | ||
| A. | Heart failure | P. | Sudden stoppage of heart beating |

| C. | Cardiac arrest | R. | Electrical signals in heart are blocked |
| S. | Heart can't pump enough oxygen-rich blood to meet body's needs |
| A | B | C | |
| 1. | R | Q | P |
| 2. | R | P | S |
| 3. | S | Q | P |
| 4. | S | Q | R |
Coronary heart disease is due to:
| 1. | Streptococci bacteria |
| 2. | Inflammation of pericardium |
| 3. | Weakening of the heart valves |
| 4. | Insufficient blood supply to the heart muscles |
