25
Q

How are the endocardial cushions formed?

A

the heart begins to form a constriction between the atrium and the ventricle

26
Q

What is the purpose of the endocardial cushion?

A

it divides the atrioventricular canal into two different sections

27
Q

Why is atrial partitioning important?

A

because it will ensure that the developing animal can move blood from the right atrium to the left atrium

28
Q

What are the structures that develop from atrial partitioning?

A
Septum 1
Foramen 1
Foramen 2
Septum 2
Oval foramen
29
Q

What is the first structure to develop?

A

septum 1

30
Q

What is the opening between septum 1 and the endocardial cushions called?

A

foramen 1

31
Q

What happens to foramen 1?

A

IT GETS OBLITERATED as septum 1 continues to grow down and meet the endocardial cushion

32
Q

What forms foramen 2?

A

an area of apoptosis

33
Q

The septum 2 forms after foramen 2 forms, what forms within septum 2?

A

Foramen 3 (oval foramen)

34
Q

How does blood flow beginning at the right atrium and ending at the left atrium in the embryonic heart?

A

flows from the right atrium through the oval foramen in between septum 1 and 2 and flow through foramen 2

35
Q

Why is the pulmonary trunk and the aorta twisted around each other?

A

because during development, the endocardial cushions fuse together, but as you move down the atrioventricular canal, they are oriented differently causing a spiral septum dividing the outflow

36
Q

What 3 things are vital to closing the intraventricular foramen?

A

the intraventricular septum, the spiral septum, the endocardial cushion

37
Q

Ectopic cordis

A

when the heart is in an abnormal location

38
Q

dextrocardia

A

the heart of the adult is a mirror image of normal

commonly seen in situs inversus

39
Q

What are 3 common valvular defects?

A

stenosis, insufficiency, dysplasia

40
Q

What are the defects associated with tetralogy of fallot?

A

intraventricular foramen is still open, pulmonary stenosis, dextroposition of aorta, right ventricular hypertrophy

41
Q

What does embryo mean?

A

early development when we do not know what it is going to become

42
Q

What does fetus mean?

A

once we know what it is going to become

43
Q

How does blood flow through the fetus (right atrium route)?

A
Umbilical vein (high O2) to either
(a) through the mass of the liver or  
(b) through the ductus venosus
to the caudal vena cava (low O2) to 
 the right atrium, through the oval foramen, between septum 1 and 2, through foramen 2, into the left atrium, to the left ventricle, out of the aorta, to the head, back to the aortic arch to the umbilical artery
44
Q

If the blood does not go to the right atrium, how does the blood flow?

A

to the right ventricle, joined by the blood returning from the cranial vena cava, to the pulmonary trunk to the ductus arteriosus to the aorta to the aortic arch to the umbilical artery

45
Q

What is considered things that the newborn has to ‘deal with’ at birth?

A

umbilical artery, ductus arteriosus, oval foramen, ductus venosus, umbilical vein

46
Q

What happens to the umbilical artery at birth?

A

it is crushed when born and collapses and closes off

47
Q

What happens to the ductus arteriosus at birth?

A

longest process of closure; a decrease in blood pressure, loss of PGE2 from the placenta, increase of oxygen concentration causing it to close

48
Q

What happens to the oval foramen after birth?

A

an increase in blood pressure to the left atrium, a decrease of blood pressure of the right atrium; pushes septum 1 into septum 2 and hits off the flow of blood from the right atrium to the left causing it to close

49
Q

How does the ductus venosus close?

A

usually closed at the time of birth, if not it closes like the umbilical vain; no blood flow, decrease of PGE2

50
Q

How does the umbilical vein close?

A

shuts down when the vein no longer has blood flow from the placenta because the placenta provides PGE2

51
Q

What is PGE2?

A

a potent vasodilator; when the production stops, the vein constricts

52
Q

What are the structures of the cardiac loop in the basic embryo?

A

ventral aorta, dorsal aorta, aortic arches

53
Q

How many aortic arches are there and what are their numbers?

A

5; 1,2,3,4,6

54
Q

Why is there no 5th aortic arch?

A

because it rarely develops in mammals, found in lower vertebrates

55
Q

What happens to the 1st and 2nd arches during development?

A

they degenerate

56
Q

What is the function of the 3rd aortic arch during development?

A

to supply the head

57
Q

What is the function of the 4th aortic arch during development?

A

to supply the rest of the body

58
Q

What does the 3rd aortic arch contribute to?

A

the internal carotid artery

59
Q

What does the left 4th aortic arch become incorporated into?

A

the aortic arch of the adult

60
Q

What does the right 4th aortic arch become incorporated into?

A

the right subclavian

61
Q

What does the right 6th aortic arch become incorporated into?

A

nothing, it degenerates

62
Q

What does the left 6th aortic arch become incorporated into?

A

the ductus arteriosus
