Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The P wave signals atrial depolarization. Within 0.1 sec, the atria contract, causing a slight rise in both atrial and ventricular pressures (the A waves).

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
As the blood loss becomes more severe (20), atrial receptor activity decreases further. This in-creases the intensity of sympathetic discharge from the cardiovascular centers. Plasma ADH and heart rate continue to climb, as does peripheral vasculature tone.
