Explanation / Answer

51. Answer is C

During inspiration, the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles contract, increasing the volume of the thoracic cavity. This causes the intrapleural pressure to become more negative, which increases thetranspulmonary pressure, causing the lungs to expand. It is called tidal colume.

52. Answer B

Oxygen bound to hemoglobin

53. Answer A

The postganglionic axons innervate the peripheral blood vessels, the heart, and other viscera. The principal neurotransmitter released at the synapse between the pre- and postganglionic neurons is acetylcholine (ACh).

54. Answer B (Mylenated axons larger diameter)

55. Answer A (Increased cardiac ou)tput

56. Answer A

57. Answer B (False)

58. Answer B (False) Hyperaldosteronism can cause high blood pressure

59. Answer A (True)
