Answer:
This question is incomplete, the options are:
A) Decreased temperature
B) Strong southerly winds
C) Presence of a predator
D) Lack of water
The answer is C
Explanation:
A stimulus is something that provokes a response or reaction in a living organism. It can either be internal or external. An animal can respond to stimulus such as hunger, heat, predator etc.
However, among all the listed stimuli in the options, the PRESENCE OF A PREDATOR is most likely to result in a more rapid heartbeat in an animal. This is because the predator stimulus will require the animal to respond by running in order to survive. Running will increase its metabolic activity and cause its heartbeat to increase.
The right atrium receives blood returning from others parts of the body through the superior vena cava and the inferior vena cava.
Explanation:
The pathway of circulation begins in the right atrium which receives the carbon dioxide-rich deoxygenated blood returning through the systemic circulation.
The deoxygenated blood from regions superior to the heart, i.e., the head, neck, shoulder areas are collected through the superior vena cava and that from the parts inferior or lower to the heart like visceral organs, extremities, trunk, hip etc are brought through the inferior vena cava.
Both these venous systems (superior and inferior) fill the right atrium.
The right atrium then pumps the deoxygenated blood to the right ventricle via the tricuspid valve.
The right atrium is filled with blood during diastole.
Blood is constantly processed by some excretory organs even though it is not excreted by the excretory system.
