What prevents the atria and the ventricles from contracting at the same time?
1. Pacemaker cells located in the atria fire before the pacemaker cells in the ventricles.
2. It takes time for epinephrine to diffuse from the atria to the ventricles to trigger contraction
3. The electrical signal generated in the right atrium is delayed at the AV node before passing to the ventricles.
4. The Na+ channels responsible for initiating ventricular contraction are inactivated and need to return to activated configuration to the electrically stimulated.

The percentage of blood (by volume) occupied by corpuscles in two animals (1 and 2) which can survive at low as well as high altitudes is shown in the table:
Animal Altitude Corpuscles (%)
Animal 1 Sea level 34 
Animal 2 Sea level 33
Animal 1 4700 m 50
Animal 2 4700 m 34

Mark the correct interpretation:
1. Animal 1 is poorly adapted at high altitude as compared to animal 2
2. Animal 2 is poorly adapted at high altitude as compared to animal 1
3. Affinity of Hb for oxygen in animal 1 is higher at lower altitude
4. Hb of animal 2 shows higher affinity for oxygen as compared to animal 1

One of the main advantages of a closed over an open circulatory system is:
1. The use of a heart to create pressure gradients necessary for blood flow
2. The ability to direct the flow of blood to certain tissues
3. The ability of respiratory pigment to transport O2
4. The ability to return blood to the heart

If there is a blockage between the AV node and AV bundle, how will this affect the appearance of the ECG?
1. PR interval would be smaller
2. QRS interval would be longer
3. There would be more P-waves than QRS complexes
4. There would be more QRS complexes than P-waves
