Heart And Stuff

Question 1

Cardiac output

Answer 1

Cardiac output = heart rate times stroke volume

Question 2

Heart rate

Answer 2

Beats per minute

Question 3

Stroke volume

Answer 3

Volume of blood pumped by one ventricle each time it contracts.
Litres/beat

Question 4

Cardiac output

Answer 4

Total volume of blood pumped by ventricle every minute.

Litres/min

Question 5

Heart structure

Answer 5

RIGHT ATRIUM receives DEOXYGENATED blood from body through VENA CAVA.
Blood goes through the VALVE into the RIGHT VENTRICLE.
Right ventricle contracts and pushes blood through VALVE then the PULMONARY ARTERY to the lungs where blood is oxygenated.
OXYGENATED blood comes from the lungs through thePULMONARY VEIN and into the LEFT ATRIUM. The blood then flows through VALVE into the LEFT VENTRICLE. Oxygenated blood then goes through the VALVE and into the body through the AORTA.
