Cardiac output is calculated by multiplying the stroke volume by the systolic blood pressure.
True
False
The Correct Answer is B
Cardiac output is calculated by multiplying the stroke volume by the heart rate, not by the systolic blood pressure.
Stroke volume is the amount of blood circulated by the heart with each beat. Heart rate is the number of beats per minute.
Systolic blood pressure is the pressure in the arteries when the heart contracts. Choice A is wrong because it confuses systolic blood pressure with heart rate.
Systolic blood pressure is not directly related to cardiac output, although it can be affected by it.

Correct Answer is B
Explanation
Kidneys are not part of the lymphatic system.
The lymphatic system is a network of vessels and organs that drain excess fluid from the tissues, transport fats and immune cells, and protect the body from infections.
Kidneys are part of the urinary system, which filters blood, regulates fluid and electrolyte balance, and produces urine.
Choice A is wrong because kidneys do not have a direct connection to the lymphatic system.
Although kidneys have lymphatic vessels in their cortex, they do not originate from the lymphatic system.
Kidneys receive blood from the renal arteries and return it to the renal veins.
The lymphatic vessels in the kidney cortex drain interstitial fluid and immune cells from the kidney tissue to the regional lymph nodes.
Some additional sentences are:
Choice B is right because kidneys are part of the urinary system, not the lymphatic system.
The urinary system and the lymphatic system have different functions and structures in the body.
Normal ranges for kidney function tests include blood urea nitrogen (BUN) of 7 to 20 mg/dL, serum creatinine of 0.6 to 1.2 mg/dL, and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of more than 90 mL/min/1.73 m.
Normal ranges for lymphatic system tests include white blood cell (WBC) count of 4,000 to 11,000 cells per microliter, lymphocyte count of 1,000 to 4,800 cells per microliter, and immunoglobulin levels of IgG (700 to 1,600 mg/dL), IgA (70 to 400 mg/dL), IgM (40 to 230
mg/dL), IgE (0 to 100 IU/mL), and IgD (0.5 to 5 mg/dL).
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
Red blood cells do not contain a large nucleus; in fact, they do not contain a nucleus at all when they are mature.
This is an adaptation that allows them to carry more hemoglobin, the protein that binds oxygen, and to squeeze through narrow capillaries.
Choice B is wrong because it contradicts the fact that red blood cells are enucleated (lacking a nucleus) in humans and most mammals.
Some vertebrates, such as birds and fish, have nucleated red blood cells, but they are not thick near the center and thin around the rim of the cell.
