44
Q

A

follows coronary sulcus

45
Q

46
Q

Circumflex artery

A

47
Q

Left Marginal Artery

A

(Obtuse)
extends along left border

48
Q

Right Posterolateral Artery

A

extends posterior, lateral to the posterior interventricular sulcus

49
Q

Coronary Veins

A

(Cardiac Viens)
most empty into the coronary sinus and then the right atrium

50
Q

Anterior Cardiac Veins

A

Adjacent to right marginal arteries anteriorly, empty directly into the right atrium anteriorly

51
Q

Right marginal Cardiac Vein

A

adjacent to the right border of the right ventricle; either connects to the small cardiac vein or empties directly into the lateral right atrium

52
Q

Small Cardiac Vein

A

between the right atrium and ventricle posteriorly; empties into the coronary sinus

53
Q

Posterior Descending Vein

A

(Middle Cardiac Vein)
Adjacent to posterior descending arteries

54
Q

Great Cardiac Vein

A

Adjacent to anterior descending arteries, empties into the coronary sinus

55
Q

Left Marginal Cardiac Vein

A

Extends along left border adjacent to left marginal (obtuse) artery

56
Q

A

Adjacent to posteriorolateral artery

57
Q

A

in posterior coronary sulcus; empties into the right atrium

Q

Heart Wall

59
Q

Epicardium

A

(Visceral Pericardium)
Covers exterior to heart
consists of a mesothelial (Simple Squamous) and connective tissue layer

60
Q

Myocardium

A

Muscular wall of the heart
contains cardiac muscle, connective tissue, blood vessel, nerves

61
Q

Endocardium

A

Covers interior of heart
Consists of an endothelial (simple squamous) layer

62
Q

Cardiac Muscle

63
Q

Cardiac Muscle Cell

A

64
Q

Intercalated disc

A

66
Q

Cardiac Pumping and muscle contraction

67
Q

Heart as a pump

68
Q

Cardiac cycle

A

Period between one heart beat and the next
Blood moves from one chamber to the next when the pressure in the first chamber exceeds that in the second

69
Q

Atrial Relaxation

A

Causes a decrease in atrial pressures
As the atrial pressures become less than the venous pressures, blood moves from the veins to the atria

70
Q

Ventricular Relaxation (Diastole)

A

Causes rapid decrease in ventricular pressure
Semilunar valve closes when the ventricular pressure becomes less than atrial pressure
–> The Atrioventricular valves open and blood moves from the atria to the ventricles.
Diastolic pressure differences between the atria and the ventricles causes about 70% of ventricular filling

71
Q

Atrial Contraction

A

Causes rapid increase in atrial pressure
The atrial pressure increases –> more blood moves from the atria to the ventricles

72
Q

Ventricular Contraction (Systole)

A

Causes rapid increase in ventricular pressure
The ventricular pressure more than arterial pressures –> the semilunar valves open and blood moves to the arteries.
–> Atrioventricular valves close

73
Q

Coordination of Cardiac muscle Contraction

A

Atria must contract from the appendages toward Av Valves
Ventricles must contract from the apex toward semilunar valves
Contraction coordinated by specialized cells

74
Q

Nodal Cells

A

membranes depolarize spontaneously and cyclically
Pacemaker cells - cycle the fastest

75
Q

Sinoatrial Node (SA Node)

A

(Node)
In posterior wall of right atrium
–> produces intrinsically ~80-100 action potential p/m

76
Q

Atrioventricular Node (AV Node)

A

(Node)
In flood of right artium near ventricle –> produces intrinsically ~40-60 action potential p/m

77
Q

Conduction Fibers

A

(Fiber)
In the atrial wall connected with the AV Node

78
Q

AV Bundle

A

(Bundle)
Travels along interventricular septum

79
Q

Bundle Branches

A

(Bundle)
Travels along Interventricular septum and radiate across inner surface of the right and left ventricles

80
Q

Purkinje Fibers

A

(Fiber)
Branches to contractile cells

81
Q

Conduction Pathway

A

(Pathway)
SA Node -> Atrial conduction fibers -> AV Node -> AV Bundle -> bundle branches -> purkinje fibers

82
Q
