explain the pathway of blood as it travels through your body starting at the left ventricle
In: Anatomy and Physiology
TRUE OR FALSE
1.The amount of blood in the ventricles at the end of the ventricular filling phase is the end –systolic volume
2. The first branch of the aortic arch is the brachiocephalic artery, which divides into the left common carotid artery and the left subclavian artery.
3. Tissue perfusion to the heart decreases during systole and increases during diastole
4. Atrial systole is responsible for ejecting most of the blood into ventricles during the ventricular filling phase of the cardiac cycle
5. During heart transplant surgery, an electric shock is sometimes needed to make the donor heart beat properly because the electric shock activates the sympathetic nerve fibers in the ventricles.
6. People with type AB- (negative) blood are universal recipients because they have no antibodies to A, B or Rh in their blood and can receive red blood cells from a donor of any blood type.

Q1-Complete the chart using accurate terminology.
Regions of nervous tissue that contain mostly nerve cell bodies. |
Sara is a healthy 20-year-old and is running in an American 5km charity fundraiser. Her body’s demand for oxygen has increased and the amount of carbon dioxide her body is producing has increased. Her respiratory system will play a vital role in ensuring she successfully completes this race. Assume normal physiology and anatomy in addressing the specific questions below.
(word limit for this section: 250)
Sara has started the race and her breathing has settled into a pattern.
Q2- Explain the mechanical and physiological process happening as she breathes in and out. Include in your answer, the two brain structures that make up the respiratory control centres and the name of the two nerves that regulate the activity of the respiratory muscles in this process

QUESTION THREE [20]
Implementation of any change programme needs to take account of the restraining forces of change. Managers should anticipate some employee resistance and plan for this eventuality in the change strategy (Brown, 2011:171)
3.1 Explain the difference between “overt’ and “covert” resistance and discuss the reasons why change is resisted in organisations. (10)
3.2 Discuss the ways in which resistance to change can be mitigated.
