Mcq On Cardiovascular System

The cardiovascular system is composed of blood, blood vessels, and the heart. It plays an important role in the body by providing essential nutrients and oxygen to the body’s cells and organs, while also carrying away byproducts of metabolism in the form of deoxygenated blood.

(c) Because of its capability of generating impulses

(d) Because it generates impulses at the highest rate.
