The correct Answer is:
To analyze the statements provided in the question, we will break down each statement step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Statement 1**: - Statement 1 claims that "Atria receive blood from all parts of the body which subsequently flows to ventricles." - The human heart has four chambers: two atria (upper chambers) and two ventricles (lower chambers). - The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from the body through the superior and inferior vena cavae, while the left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the lungs via the pulmonary veins. - Therefore, this statement is correct as the atria do receive blood from the body and lungs, which then flows into the ventricles. 2. **Understanding Statement 2**: - Statement 2 states that "Action potential generated at sino-atrial node passes from atria to ventricles." - The sino-atrial (SA) node is known as the natural pacemaker of the heart. It generates electrical impulses (action potentials) that initiate heartbeats. - These impulses spread through the atria, causing them to contract and push blood into the ventricles. - The action potential then travels to the atrioventricular (AV) node, and from there, it spreads to the ventricles. - Thus, this statement is also correct as the action potential does indeed pass from the atria to the ventricles. 3. **Conclusion**: - Both statements are correct. Statement 1 is dependent on Statement 2 because the flow of blood from the atria to the ventricles is facilitated by the action potential generated by the SA node. - Therefore, the correct option is that both statements are true. ### Final Answer: Both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are correct. ---
