Your answers are highlighted below.

Question 1

The human heart creates enough pressure to squirt blood 30 feet.

	True
	False

Question 1 Explanation:No wonder you can feel your heartbeat so easily. Pumping blood through your body quickly and efficiently takes quite a bit of pressure resulting in the strong contractions of the heart and the thick walls of the ventricles which push blood to the body.

Question 2

The acid in your stomach is strong enough to dissolve razorblades.

	True
	False

Question 2 Explanation:While you certainly shouldn’t test the fortitude of your stomach by eating a razorblade or any other metal object for that matter, the acids that digest the food you eat aren’t to be taken lightly. Hydrochloric acid, the type found in your stomach, is not only good at dissolving the pizza you had for dinner but can also eat through many types of metal.

Question 3

The human body is estimated to have 10,000 miles of blood vessels.

	True
	False

Question 3 Explanation:60,000 miles. To put that in perspective, the distance around the earth is about 25,000 miles, making the distance your blood vessels could travel if laid end to end more than two times around the earth.

Question 4

You get a new stomach lining every three to four days.

	True
	False

Question 4 Explanation:The mucus-like cells lining the walls of the stomach would soon dissolve due to the strong digestive acids in your stomach if they weren’t constantly replaced. Those with ulcers know how painful it can be when stomach acid takes its toll on the lining of your stomach.

Question 5

The surface area of a human lung is less then a tennis court.

	True
	False

Question 5 Explanation:It is equal. In order to more efficiently oxygenate the blood, the lungs are filled with thousands of branching bronchi and tiny, grape-like alveoli. These are filled with microscopic capillaries which oxygen and carbon dioxide. The large amount of surface area makes it easier for this exchange to take place, and makes sure you stay properly oxygenated at all times.

Question 6

Women’s hearts beat slower than men’s.

	True
	False

Question 6 Explanation:The main reason for this is simply that on average women tend to be smaller than men and have less mass to pump blood to. But women’s and men’s hearts can actually act quite differently, especially when experiencing trauma like a heart attack, and many treatments that work for men must be adjusted or changed entirely to work for women.

Question 7

Scientists have counted over 500 different liver functions.

	True
	False

Question 7 Explanation:You may not think much about your liver except after a long night of drinking, but the liver is one of the body’s hardest working, largest and busiest organs. Some of the functions your liver performs are: production of bile, decomposition of red blood cells, plasma protein synthesis, and detoxification.

Question 8

The aorta is nearly the diameter of a garden hose.

	True
	False

Question 8 Explanation:The average adult heart is about the size of two fists, making the size of the aorta quite impressive. The artery needs to be so large as it is the main supplier of rich, oxygenated blood to the rest of the body.

Question 9

Your left lung is smaller than your right lung to make room for your heart.

	True
	False

Question 9 Explanation:For most people, if they were asked to draw a picture of what the lungs look like they would draw both looking roughly the same size. While the lungs are fairly similar in size, the human heart, though located fairly centrally, is tilted slightly to the left making it take up more room on that side of the body and crowding out that poor left lung.

Question 10

You could remove a large part of your internal organs and survive.

	True
	False

Question 10 Explanation:The human body may appear fragile but it’s possible to survive even with the removal of the stomach, the spleen, 75 percent of the liver, 80 percent of the intestines, one kidney, one lung, and virtually every organ from the pelvic and groin area. You might not feel too great, but the missing organs wouldn’t kill you.

Question 11

The adrenal glands change size throughout life.

	True
	False

Question 11 Explanation:The adrenal glands, lying right above the kidneys, are responsible for releasing stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. In the seventh month of a fetus’ development, the glands are roughly the same size as the kidneys. At birth, the glands have shrunk slightly and will continue to do so throughout life. In fact, by the time a person reaches old age, the glands are so small they can hardly be seen.
