No, because when we cry we breathe out and in, and since we can't breathe underwater we would end up dying in the water. Unless you had a scuba headset then you can cry because you also have the ability to breathe.

<span>No crying underwater is not possible because of 2 reasons.
1) While crying there is a spasm of muscles , of that of the oesophagus (throat) and this would result in death of an individual if he/she is under water.
2) The external fluid pressure will not permit the tear gland to secrete tears there by nullifying the possibility.
Thus u cannot cry unre water..
of course except if u are wearing a goggle or u are in a submarine! :)</span><span>

Which of the following is NOT true regarding the sounds associated with the heart? Select one: a. The "lub-dub" sound originates

Valentin [98]

Answer:

B) The "lub-dub" sound originates from blood turbulence through the heart.

Explanation:

The systole and diastole in the heart produce the lub and dub sound in the heart.

The systole represents the contraction of both left and right ventricles and pumps the blood to the body and the right ventricle to the lungs. This involves the opening and closing of the valves. The closing of the atrioventricular valves produces lub sound.

At the end of the systole or ventricular contraction or when the blood has been pumped to the aorta and the pulmonary valves then the semilunar valves present in the aorta and pulmonary closes. This produces a sound dub.

Therefore,lub dub is associated with the physical contraction of the heart but not the turbulence of the blood.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.
