Solution

Answer:

1.

Answer2: Sequence of events in ventricular systole:

1. Isovolumetric contraction occurs

2. Intraventricular pressure begins to increase

3. Intraventricular pressure rises above arterial pressure

4. Atrioventricular (AV) valve close

5. Semilunar valves open

6. Ventricular ejection occurs

Answer 3: In fetal circulation, blood entering the right atrium is shunted directly into the left atrium through the foramen ovale.

Hypertension	Atherosclerosis
Elevated arterial pressure of 140/90 or higher	Clogging of vessels with fatty buildup
The heart works harder, causing the myocardium to enlarge and weaken	Leads to arteriosclerosis and death of the vessel\'s smooth muscle
Often referred to as a silent killer	Vessels lose their elasticity and become stiff and rigid
