A

expand the atrium

19
Q

20
Q

What is the interventricular septum

A

muscle wall between ventricles

21
Q

What is the pectinate muscle

A

for expansion

22
Q

What is the fossa ovalis

A

during pregnancy you have the right and left connected, and it closes at birth

23
Q

What is trabiculae carnae

Q

What is the heart

A

muscular organ that function ad a double pump to control blood floe

30
Q

What is the sinoartial node

A

the pacemaker, which generates an impulse which spreads, maes the atrium contracts. This goes to the atrioventricular and then purnjike fibers then goes into the left atrium to contract that

31
Q

What conducts the heart

A

AV bundles

32
