Heart

Question 1

Pericardium

Answer 1

It is surrounded by a fluid filled sac its protects the heart and prevents overfilling it allows heart to work ina relatively friction free environment

Question 2

Coronary arteries

Answer 2

Are blood vessels that supply the heart itself with blood the entire surface is covered in a network of blood vessels

Question 3

Left atrium

Answer 3

One of four chambers of the heart
The atria act as holding chambers they collect blood in this case oxygenated in the left atrium and pump it to the left ventricle

Question 4

Right atrium

Answer 4

One of four chambers of the heart
Act as a holding chamber collect blood in this case deoxygenated blood from the body into the right atrium and pump it to the right ventricle

Question 5

Left ventricle

Answer 5

One of the four heart chambers
Ventricles being the stronger and muscular ones they receive blood from the artia and pump it to in this case the rest of the body via aorta from the left ventricle

Question 6

Right ventricle

Answer 6

One of four heart chambers Ventricles being stronger and muscular they receive blood and pump it to in this case the lungs via pulmonary artery to get oxygenated

Question 7

Septum

Answer 7

The heart has two separate sides one containing oxygenated and deoxygenated blood the septum is a thick wall that separates those two sides

Question 8

Semilunar valves

Answer 8

Refering to both valves are located one on the right side of the heart in the pulmonary artery ( pulmonary valve) and one on the left side in the aortic pathway (aortic valve)

Question 9

Valves

Answer 9

Are like small gates to prevent blood flowing in the wrong direction as of right now we know of valves in the veins and 4 inside the heart

Question 10

AV valves

Answer 10

Atrioventricular valves are located in atria separating the ventricles and atria these valves make sure there is not back flow of blood from the ventricle back into the atria
The right side has one called tricuspid valve because it has three flaps
The left side has one called tricuspid valve bicuspid valve because is has two flaps

Question 11

Tricuspid

Answer 11

Located in the right side of the heart separating the right atrium and right ventricle

Question 12

Bicuspid

Answer 12

Located of the left side of the heart separating the left atrium and left ventricle

Question 13

Vena cava

Answer 13

Collects the deoxygenated blood and brings it to the heart

Superior in the top vena cava collect deoxygenated blood from torso and arms up

Inferior in the bottom vena cava collect deoxygenated blood from torse and legs down

Question 14

Pulmonary artery

Answer 14

They bring the deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs to get oxygenated

Question 15

Pulmonary veins

Answer 15

Oxygenated blood from the lungs flows inside the pulmonary veins and brings it to the heart to be pumped into the rest of the body

Question 16

Aorta

Answer 16

The largest artery in the body and send oxygenated blood out of the heart and to the rest of the body this is very high pressure

Question 17

Superior vena cava

Answer 17

Top half of the vena cava collecting deoxygenated blood from the top half of the body

Question 18

Inferior vena cava

Answer 18

The bottom half of the vena cava collecting cava collecting deoxygenated blood from the lower half of the body

Question 19

Aortic valve

Answer 19

Located of the left side of the heart connecting to the aorta this valve prevents back flow of blood back into the left ventricle

Question 20

Pulmonary valve

Answer 20

The valve located on the right side of the heart connects to the pulmonary artery and prevents back flow of blood back into the right ventricle

Question 21

Mitral valve

Answer 21

Another name for bicuspid valve located on the left side of the heart separating left atrium and left ventricle

Question 22

Systole

Answer 22

The part of the cardiac cycle where the heart is contracting and pumping

Question 23

Diastole

Answer 23

The part of the cardiac cycle where the heart is at rest and refilling the ventricles with blood
