26
Q

what do the atria do?

A

set the cardiac pace

receive blood and pass it on to ventricles

27
Q

what is the pace maker of the heart?

A

SAN

28
Q

where is the SAN?

A

right atria

29
Q

where is the AVN?

A

atria

30
Q

where does the right atria receive blood?

A

superior vena cava
inferior vena cava
coronary sinus

31
Q

where does the coronary sinus drain blood from?

A

coronary circulation

32
Q

what is the smooth part of the atria?

A

sinus venarum

33
Q

what is the sinus venarum derived from?

A

blood vessels embryonically

34
Q

what is the rough part of the atria covered with?

A

pectinate muscle

35
Q

what is the dividing line between smooth and rough atria walls?

A

cresta terminla

36
Q

whats inside the cresta terminala?

A

sinoatrial node

37
Q

what is the cresta terminala on the outside?

A

groove called sulcus terminalis

38
Q

what is the oval depression in the smooth wall called?

A

fossa ovalis

39
Q

what is the fossa ovalis?

A

depression in the smooth atria wall

derived from the connection between the atria in utero

40
Q

what is the fossa ovalis derived from?

A

faramen ovalae

41
Q

what is the left atrium supplied by?

A

the four pulmonary veins:

superior/inferior/left and right

42
Q

what is the valve between the right atria and ventricle?

A

tricuspid valve

43
Q

what is the valve between the left atria and ventricle?

A

bicuspid/mitral

44
Q

in the right ventricle what route does the blood take?

A

U shaped direction as it enters the pulmonary artery through the pulmonary trunk

45
Q

what is the pulmonary valve connected to?

A

cords tendonae

46
Q

what controls the cords tendonae?

A

papillary muscles

47
Q

what is below the papillary muscles?

A

rough area covered in trabculae carne

48
Q

what does the trabecula carnae do?

A

stops walls of the heart sticking together during systole

49
Q

what is the moderate band also known as?

A

septum marginal trabecular

50
Q

where does the bundle of hiss run?

A

septum marginal trabecular

51
Q

what funnels blood to the valve in the ventricles?

A

smooth funnel called infundibulum

52
Q

where do you find semi lunar valves?

A

between ventricles and the great vessels

53
Q

examples of semi lunar valves?

A

pulmonary and aortic

54
Q

how many cusps does the semi lunar valves have?

A

3

55
Q

what do the three cusps of the semi lunar valves form?

A

3 sinuses

56
Q

how many semi lunar cusps have coronary vessels coming off them?

A

2

57
Q

what are the 2 cusps of the semi lunar valve that give rise to coronary arteries?

A
right aortic (anterior) sinus - right coronary sinus
left aortic (left posterior) sinus - left coronary artery
58
Q

when do the coronary arteries fill?

A

during diastole (relaxation of the heart)

59
Q

why cant the coronary arteries fill during systole?

A

the cusps of the vavles push against the wall of the aorta and close the opening

60
Q

where does the right coronary artery run?

A

aorta down the antrioventricular groove at the bottom it gives off the marginal artery which runs along the inferior border

61
Q

what shape does the right coronary artery and marginal artery form?

A

L shape

62
Q

why is the left coronary artery much shorter than the right?

A

bifurcates almost immediately

63
Q

what does the left coronary artery bifurcate into?

A

left circumflex and left anterior descending

64
Q

what are the three cardiac veins?

A

great
middle
small
