cardio respi Flashcards
modified cardiac muscle
decrease number of myofibrils limited to the periphery
lack transverse tubules
purkinje fibers
lining epithelium of endothelium
simple squamous
thickest and most prominent layer of the heart , with strands of c.t. and vascular network in between cells.
myocardium
: contain b.v., nerves, and fat cells
pericardial cavity and sac
subepicardium
lining epithelium of cardiac skeleton
DICT
principal attachment for the cardiac muscles and AV valves
annuli fibrosi
IVS; muscle attachments
septum membranaceum
between arterial foramina and AV canals
trigona fibrosa
pacemaker of the heart ; sulcus terminalis area
SA node
separates the T. media from Tunica adventitia in arteries
External elastic lamina/membrane
Circumferentially arranged smooth muscles, with elastic, collagen fibers III,
glycoproteins and proteoglycans
tunica media
Loose CT
Type I collagen and elastic fibers
Vasa vasorum, nervi vasorum
tunica adventitia
Fc VIII (Von Willebrand) secretion – protective thrombus formation
endothelial cells
lines the inferior portion of the pharynx
stratified squamous epithelium
Olfactory epithelium
Pseudostratified columnar, lacks goblet cells, no distinct basal lamina
