Free Circulation MCQs with Answers
695 Circulation MCQs from Biology, each with the correct answer and a written explanation of why it is correct. Free and unlimited, with no account needed.
The circulatory system covers the chambers, valves and conducting pathway of the human heart, along with the cardiac cycle and control of heartbeat. It compares arteries, veins and capillaries by structure and function, and explains how the lymphatic system returns tissue fluid, transports absorbed fats and supports immunity.

- A. Artificial active immunity
- B. Specific natural immunity
- C. Artificial passive immunity
- D. Natural passive immunity
Explanation: "The explanation for this question will be added soon!".
Correct answer: Artificial passive immunity- A. Symplast
- B. Apoplast
- C. Vascular
- D. None of these
Explanation: Inside a plant, the apoplast is the space outside the plasma membrane within which material can diffuse freely.
Correct answer: Apoplast- A. Osmosis
- B. Effusion
- C. Affusion
- D. None of these
Explanation: Diffusion is the movement of gases from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.resulting in the gradual mixing of…
Correct answer: Effusion- A. Phospholipid bilayer
- B. Channel proteins
- C. Both A and B
- D. None of the above
Explanation: Ions are unable to move through the phospholipid bilayer because the nonpolar tail regions of the phospholipids are hydrophobic.
Correct answer: Phospholipid bilayer- A. Increases.
- B. None
- C. Remains constant
- D. Decreases
Explanation: As the pH of the blood declines, the amount of oxygen bound to haemoglobin also declines.
Correct answer: Decreases- A. None of these
- B. Decreases
- C. Increases
- D. Remains constant
Explanation: Due to high metabolic activity at the tissue level, there is an accumulation of CO2.
Correct answer: Decreases- A. Lymphatic system
- B. Blood circulatory system
- C. Nervous system
- D. Defense system
Explanation: Tonsils are small, round masses of tissue that are located at the back of the throat.
Correct answer: Lymphatic system- A. Lenticles
- B. Stomata
- C. Hydathodes
- D. Cuticle
Explanation: A hydathode is a type of specialized pore that can secrete excess water via guttation.
Correct answer: Hydathodes- A. Stomata
- B. Hydathodes
- C. Lenticels
- D. Cuticle
Explanation: A lenticel is a raised pore in the stem of a woody plant that allows gas exchange between the atmosphere and the internal tissues.
Correct answer: Lenticels- A. Zero
- B. One
- C. Infinity
- D. Negative
Explanation: The water potential of pure water is defined as having a value of zero.
Correct answer: Zero- A. Stomata
- B. Hydathodes
- C. Lenticels
- D. Cuticles
Explanation: Stomata are specialized openings in the leaves that facilitate gas exchange in plants.
Correct answer: Stomata- A. Respiration
- B. Guttation
- C. Vaporization
- D. Transportation
Explanation: Guttation or exudation is when excess water has to be forced out of the pores in plants; a hydathode is one such pore.
Correct answer: Guttation- A. Mitral contraction
- B. All of these
- C. Bicuspid contraction
- D. Tricuspid contraction
Explanation: The cusps of the valves are attached to the papillary muscles which are extensions of the wall of the ventricles through fibrous cords…
Correct answer: All of these- A. Antibodies
- B. Interferon
- C. All of these
- D. Natural killer Cell
Explanation: A natural killer cell is the cell which directly kills the cell infected by the pathogen.
Correct answer: Natural killer Cell- A. Skin and joints
- B. Muscles
- C. Muscles, skin and joints
- D. None
Explanation: Muscles, skins and joints are common sites for autoimmune diseases.
Correct answer: Muscles, skin and joints- A. Water pressure
- B. Root pressure
- C. Peer pressure
- D. Road pressure
Explanation: When we cut a tree, water is produced in the cut portion due to root pressure which is defined as the upward movement of fluids in the…
Correct answer: Root pressure- A. To serve as imunoglobulins
- B. All of these
- C. To act as a buffer
- D. To serve as reserve proteins
Explanation: Plasma proteins have several functions. Plasma proteins, such as albumin and globulin, that help maintain the colloidal osmotic pressure…
