The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the correct statements about the heart, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement I **Statement I:** The sino-atrial node (SAN) is present in the right top corner of the right atrium. - The sino-atrial node is indeed located in the right atrium, specifically at the junction of the superior vena cava and the right atrium. Thus, this statement is **correct**. **Hint:** Remember the location of the sino-atrial node; it is crucial for initiating heart contractions. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement II **Statement II:** Ligamentum arteriosum connects the aorta and pulmonary trunk. - The ligamentum arteriosum is a fibrous remnant of the ductus arteriosus, which connects the aorta and the pulmonary trunk in fetal life. After birth, it becomes the ligamentum arteriosum. Therefore, this statement is also **correct**. **Hint:** Think about the fetal circulation and how the ductus arteriosus transforms after birth. ### Step 3: Analyze Statement III **Statement III:** Purkinje fibres constitute a portion of the bundle of His. - Purkinje fibers are specialized fibers that conduct impulses in the heart, but they are not a part of the bundle of His. Instead, they branch from the bundle of His. Therefore, this statement is **incorrect**. **Hint:** Distinguish between the bundle of His and Purkinje fibers; they are related but not the same. ### Step 4: Analyze Statement IV **Statement IV:** The pulmonary trunk connects the right ventricle to the lungs. - The pulmonary trunk carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs for oxygenation. This statement is therefore **correct**. **Hint:** Recall the function of the pulmonary trunk in the circulatory system. ### Conclusion After analyzing all four statements: - Statement I: Correct - Statement II: Correct - Statement III: Incorrect - Statement IV: Correct The correct statements about the heart are **I, II, and IV**. **Final Answer:** The correct statements about the heart are I, II, and IV.

The SAN can generate the maximum number of action potential , i.e., 80-85 min^(-1)

Read the following statements ( A-C ) about the human heart : A. The SA node is a specialized mass of cardiac tissue present in the lower-left corner of the right atrium close to the AV septum. B. The body has the ability to alter the heart rate, cardiac output but not stroke volume. C. The end of the T- wave in ECG marks the end of the systole. How Many statements is /are correct from the above?

Read the following statements about the internal structure of the human heart. I. Humans have a an auto - excitable , chambered , muscular and myogenic heat. II. The heart is mesodermal in origin and is present symmetrically between two lungs in the thoracic cavity. III. The opening between the right atrium and left ventricle is guarded by a tricuspid valve. IV. Only th sino - atrial node of the heart has hte ability to generate action potentials without any external stimuli. How many statement/s is/ are incorrect from the above ?

Consider the following statements? (a) Before birth, foramen ovale allows the blood to pass from right atrium to left atrium , thus bypassing the pulmonary circulation , (b) Heart is protected by a double walled pericardium , (c) The muscle fibres present in heart are different from smooth muscles in being mesodermal in origin , (d) Nodal tissues like AVN, SAN are specialised neural tissues which are distributed in heart. How many among the statements mentioned above are correct?

Read the following statements carefully (i) In fishes, the heart pumps out deoxygenated blood which is oxygenated by the gills and supplied to the body part from where deoxygenated blood is returned to the heart (ii) The openings of the right and the left ventricles into pulmonary artery and aorta respectively are provided with the mitral valves (iii) The nodal musculature has the ability to generate action potential without any external stimuli, i,e., it is autoexcitable (iv) The T-wave of ECG represent depolarisation of the ventricles. Which of the above two statements are incorrect ?
