Revision Test

This document contains a passage and questions about transport in animals. It discusses the cardiac output of a person at rest and after exercise. It calculates that the cardiac output increases by 21.01/5.25=4 times with exercise. Exercise requires greater cardiac output to supply oxygen and nutrients to active muscles. It also discusses how the heart can be transported for a transplant by connecting it to a reservoir of blood and chemicals to keep it beating. Structures like the aorta and atria are labeled in a diagram. The document further examines blood vessels and the flow of blood through the chambers of the heart.

1. The volume of blood pumped out of the heart per minute is known as the cardiac
output. The cardiac output depends on the heart rate and the volume of blood pumped
during each heartbeat, which is known as the stroke volume.
cardiac output = heart rate stroke volume
