Circle. Think it through: establish a point (origin point). Then find all the other points that just happen to be the same distance from the origin point. Connect them. What is the shape that they will make? A circle. All the circle points will have the same radius measurement since that is just the distance to the origin (or center, if you want to call it that).

Consider the homeostatic "set point" that the cardiovascular system attmepts to reach on a second to second basis, namely blood pressure. What specifically is meant by an enlarged heart and what might be a cause of such a pathologic condition?
An enlarged heart is exactly what it is: a heart that is larger than a normal heart. Many things can cause an enlarged heart: from an infection to cardiovascular disease (such as high blood pressure), to defected heart valves, to congenital defect. A heart becomes larger than its normal size because it has to work harder to pump the blood. In this case the heart muscles become larger (just like when you exercise your biceps become larger).
