*protective covering
*contains capillaries and nerve fibers

35
Q

myocardium

A

*cardiac muscle
*contracts to pump blood
*arranged in whorls- when ventricular walls contract with a twisting motion, a “wringing” of blood out of ventricles into arteries

36
Q

myocytes

A

cardiac cells

37
Q

endocardium

A

*forms protective inner lining
*membrane of epithelial and connective tissue

38
Q

atria

A

receives blood returning to the heart

39
Q

right atrium

A

*receives blood from systemic veins
*inferiro vena cava
*superior vena cava

40
Q

left atrium

A

receives blood from pulmonary vein

41
Q

auricles

A

extend anteriorly from the atria and increase atrial volume

42
Q

ventricles

A

force blood out of the heart into arteries

43
Q

right ventricle

A

*receives blood from the right atrium
*sends blood to pulmonary circuit (pulmonary trunk)

44
Q

left ventricle

A

*receives blood from left atrium
*sends blood to systemic circuit (aorta)

45
Q

tricuspid valve

A

*right A-V valve
*between right atrium and right ventricle

46
Q

*left A-V valve
*between left atrium an left ventricle

47
Q

A

strong fibrous string that anchor valves to floor of ventricles

48
Q

papillary muscles

A

muscles attached to the ventricle walls that hold chordate tendineae

49
Q

A

*S-L valve (semilunar valve)
*between right ventricle and pulmonary trunk

50
Q

aortic valve

A

*S-L valve (semilunar valve)
*between left ventricle and aorta

A

dense connective tissue between the ventricles

52

A

relaxation of atria and ventricles

63
Q

electrical contraction of the heart

A

*action potential initiated by pacemaker cell

67
Q

atrioventricular note (A-V node)

A

*inferior portion of the interatrial septum
*provides normal conduction pathway between atrial and ventricular syncytium
*impulses are slow

subendocardial conducting network (Purkinge fibers)

A

*impulse to distant regions of ventricular myocardium faster than cell to cell junction

69
Q

echocardiogram (ECG)

A

records electrical changes that occur in myocardium

70
Q

ECG waves

A

*P wave: atrial depolarization, atria=>SA node, end of p wave impulse transmission to AV node
*QRS wave: ventricular repolarization, impulse down bundle, thru purkinje, ventricular muscle, ventricular contraction
*T wave: ventricular repolarization, recovery of electrical charge in ventricles

71
Q

regulation of cardiac cycle

A

*Parasympathetic fibers: medulla oblongata => SA & AV nodes, secrete acetylcholine, decrease in nodal activity & HR
*Sympathetic fibers: spinal cord=> SA & AV nodes, secrete norephinepherine, increase in activity & HR
*Temperature: increase HR in high temp, decrease HR in low temp
*Ions: K+ affects electrical potential, Ca2+
