Why or why not? Yes, because a small amount of serous fluid is necessary to protect the heart during movement. Yes, because a small amount of serous fluid prevents the heart tiring. Yes, because a small amount of serous fluid protects the heart from infection. No, because any fluid can result in the stretching of the pericardial cavity deforming the heart. No, because any fluid can increase the pressure on the heart preventing it functioning efficiently. 9/6/2020, 1:19 PM Acquired Cardiovascular Abnormalities Chapter Exam Answers 14 of 14 30. https://study.com/academy/topic/print-exam/cardiovascular-abnormalities...
