Question 9

A: A person with group O blood is called a universal donor.
R: Group O red blood cells carry neither A nor B antigens.

Solution: Absence of A/B antigens means no recipient antibodies attack O cells — R explains A.
Question 10

A: The left ventricle has the thickest muscular wall of the four chambers.
R: It must pump blood against high pressure to the whole body via the aorta.

Solution: Pumping to the whole body requires the most muscular wall — R explains A.
Question 11

A: The human heartbeat is initiated by a nerve impulse from the brain.
R: The heart is myogenic, with the beat originating in the SA node.

Solution: A is false — the beat originates in the SA node (myogenic), not from a brain nerve; R is true.
Question 12

A: Double circulation allows efficient oxygen delivery in mammals.
R: It keeps oxygenated and deoxygenated blood completely separate.

Solution: Keeping the two bloods separate is what makes delivery efficient — R explains A.
