Preview 3 sample questions 1 Which term describes receptors that detect movement in the muscles and joints?
Proprioceptors Chemoreceptors Baroreceptors Thermoreceptors
2 What is meant by Starling's law of the heart?
The heart beats faster when pressure falls Greater stretch gives a stronger contraction Stronger contraction empties the atria faster Faster heart rate gives bigger stroke volume
3 Match each response to its benefit.
Rise in muscle temperature More blood flow to muscles Rise in tidal volume More air reaches the alveoli More oxygen delivered Enzymes work faster
