A

White fibers that connect the valves to papillary muscles

26
Q

AV valves ________ when ventricles contract

A

close

27
Q

Semilunar valves

A

this is where blood leaves the ventricles

28
Q

Aortic semilunar

A

valve between aorta and left ventricle

29
Q

Pulmonary semilunar

A

valve between pulmonary vessel and right ventricle

30
Q

Similunars _________when the ventricles relax?

A

close

31
Q

2 circuits of blood flow

A

systemic and pulmonary

32
Q

systemic red means

A

O2 rich CO2 poor blood

33
Q

pulmonary red means

A

CO2 rich O2 poor blood

34
Q

Ventricales pump ___________ amounts of blood

A

equal

35
Q

*coronary arteries

A

supply the heart only

36
Q

coronary sinus

A

posterior side of heart thick blue vein

37
Q

Cardiac muscle cells have

A

sarcomeres the smallest unit of muscle contraction

38
Q

Cardiac muscle is

A

auto rythemic when one contracts they all contract thats why the heart acts like a pump.

39
Q

sinoatrial nodal cells (SA node) is located

A

superiro R atrium it controls resting HR

40
Q

sinus rythem is

A

70 bpm

41
Q

interatrial pathway

A

node to node electrical pathway

42
Q

*Atrioventricular nodal cells (AV node) does…

A

pauses the electrical signal

43
Q

The AV bundle (bundle of his)

A

is a collection of heart muscle cells specialized for electrical conduction that transmits the electrical impulses from the AV node

44
Q

the bundle branches

A

are R & L

45
Q

Purkinjie fibers

A

relay electrical signals to cardiac muscle cells

46
Q

The heart is controlled extrinsicly

A

controlled by the CNS

47
Q

Nervous system (SA Node)

A

sypathetic and parasympathetic

48
Q

Endocine system effects the heart how?

A

epinephrine speeds the heart

49
Q

3 waves P QRS & T represent how many heart beats

A

1

50
Q

P wave

A

electrical signal for atrium to contract. atrium contracts after p wave

51
Q

QRS complex

A

electrical signal for for ventricles to contract. ventricles contract after QRS complex

52
Q

T wave

A

electrical signal for the ventricles to relax and refill with blood

53
Q

Systole

A

When the ventricles are contracting and pumping blood

54
Q

Diastole

A

When the ventricles are relaxed and refill with blood

55

A

systole

59
Q

If diastole is elevated what is likely?

A

high blood pressure

60
Q

Pulse is

A

a wave of blood passing through an artery

61
Q

heart sound lub

A

closing of the 2 av valves bicuspid and tricuspid

62
Q

heart sound dub
