There are many different ways to solve problems in science. The ones presented in this document do not always match the ones presented in the videos.  \nWe do not have Section 1 worked solutions and we do not have Section 3 written solutions for other exams. If you have another way to solve a problem, please feel free to contribute at [www.gamsat](www.gamsat)[prep.com](prep.com).  \nWe believe that all students should own ACER’s 5 eBooks which should be purchased directly from ACER. This is an adjunct to your studies and in no way can be used to replace the original documents. Occasionally, this document will include minor direct representations of ACER’s exam based on fair use copyright legislation.  \nFollowing each of the MCQs, you can find cross-referencing to the current edition of the Gold Standard GAMSAT books to explore further information about that topic. We hope that you will find this document helpful for your GAMSAT preparation.  \n1.  \nThis question requires you to have a basic understanding of the basic terminology and physiology of the heart.  \nThe atrioventricular valves (mitral and tricuspid), like their name suggests, allows blood to flow from the atrium to the ventricles. The semi-lunar valves (aortic and pulmonary) allow blood to flow from the ventricles to the great vessels (aorta and pulmonary artery, respectively) .  \nVentricular systole is the duration during which the ventricles are contracting, squeezing blood from the ventricles into the great vessels. Conversely, ventricular diastole is when the ventricles relax, allowing blood to flow from the atria into the ventricles.  \nTherefore, during ventricular systole, the aortic and pulmonary valves open allowing blood to flow in to the great arteries.  \nThe answer is B.  \nBackground information: GS BIO 7. 2, 7.3  \n2.  \nSimilar to the above question, ACER is testing basic knowledge of the heart.  \nOxygenated blood flows from the lungs into the left atrium where it passes to the left ventricle and is eventually pumped into the aorta. Conversely, deoxygenated blood flows into the right atrium where it passes to the right ventricle and is pumped into the pulmonary artery.  \nYou should recognise that since S drains in to the right side of the heart that this carries deoxygenated blood. Deoxygenated blood from the right side is then pumped into P. Conversely, oxygenated blood from the lungs, R, drains in to the left side and is then pumped in to Q.  \nThe answer is Q and R, which is option D.  \nBackground information: GS BIO 7. 2, 7.3  \n3.  \nACER here is not looking to test your knowledge of heart murmurs; here they are wanting you to build on your knowledge from the previous questions.  \nHere we are asked about aortic regurgitation which we are told is caused by the aortic valve not closing properly. In question 1 we stated that the aortic valve opens during systole (the ventricles pump blood into the aorta) . This means the aortic valve is usually closed during diastole. Aortic regurgitation is caused by improper closing of the aortic valve – we can infer that the murmur will occur during diastole. Good examination strategy will allow you to reduce the options now to II or IV.  \nThe strategy must now be how to separate the two answers. ACER gives some information in the paragraph preceding the image. The grey box refers to the sound caused by the pulmonary valve closing. The striped box refers to the aortic valve closing. We should refer back to the definition of aortic regurgitation –failure of the aortic valve to close properly. This means that there would not be any sound elicited from the aortic valve, leaving only the shutting of the pulmonary valve to be heard.  \nWe can therefore eliminate IV, and the answer is","cbCaih5gGYDG1zYx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaih5gGYDG1zYx","pdf",1097111,31,"English","# MCQ Worked Solutions\n## Heart physiology and valve function\n## Blood flow through chambers and great vessels\n## Aortic regurgitation and murmur identification\n## Interpreting murmurs from definitions and diagrams\n## Equation-based frequency/period calculation\n## Graphical interpretation (intro)","[{\"question\":\"What heart concepts are required for the early questions in Part I?\",\"answer\":\"The solutions emphasize basic terminology and physiology of the heart, including how atrioventricular and semi-lunar valves enable blood flow during systole and diastole.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the document suggest approaching answers for a question about aortic regurgitation?\",\"answer\":\"It links aortic regurgitation to improper aortic valve closure, then uses that to predict when murmurs occur and to eliminate options based on which valve sound would be absent or present.\"},{\"question\":\"Does the solution method in the document always match the associated video explanations?\",\"answer\":\"No. The document notes that different ways to solve problems in science may be used, and the approaches presented here do not always match those shown in the videos.\"}]","GAMSAT Pink eBook - Part I - Worked Solutions | PDF",1790726713,78]
