Q

explain why the frank starlic mecahism is good

A

beacuse if you get an icnrease venous return, the heart will be able to eject the blood more forcefully (rubber band mecahnist) without extra heart work and that will increase the stroke volume

A

true

46

what are sinus nodal fibers are electrically connected to

A

atrial muscle fibers through syncitum

47
Q

since the SA node has no contractile filalnets, it is not excitable?

100 bpm

49
Q

true or false: The SA node sets the rate and rhythm of your heartbeat

A

true

50
Q

since the SA node controls HR and has a rate of 100 bpm, that means something is BLANK these cells to get it to resting HR

A

dampening

51
Q

if the SA node has no cotnractile filaments, how are they self excibtable

A

because of the inherent leakiness of the SA node to sodium and calcium

A

atrial nodal

55
Q

true or false: there is a slow depolarization for sinus nodal

A

true

56
Q

why does the Sinus Node Controls Heart Rhythmicity

A

because of its more postiive resting membrane potential and leakyiness, it is the first to be depolarized and spread because of the syncitum

57
Q

true or false The discharge rate of the sinus node is considerably slow than the natural self-excitatory discharge rate of either the A-V node or the Purkinje fibers.

A

false, it is much faster

58
Q

can other parts of the heart ever control heart rhytm

A

yes, Under abnormal conditions, few other parts of the heart can exhibit intrinsic rhythmical excitation in the same way like the sinus nodal fibers (A-V node and Purkinje fibers).

59
Q

what other types of parts of the hear can exhibit rhythmical excitation?

A

av node and purkinje fibers

60
Q

what is a pacemaker elsewhere than the sinus node is called …

A

an ectopic pacemaker/abnomral pacemake

61
Q

where do Action potentials originating in the sinus node travel

A

outward into the atrial muscle fibers and to the A-V node.

62
Q

what happens to the impluse (AP) afrter it travels through the internodal pathways

A

it reaches the A-V node about 0.03 second after its origin in the sinus node.

63
Q

true or false: the impulse/AP syaus the same speed travelling from the SA node to the AV node

A

false, it gets delayed

64
Q

what is the reason for the delay of action portteial from reaching the ventricles

A

allowing the atria to empty blood into the ventricles before the ventricles contract.

65
Q

why does the delay happen at the AV noe

A

This happens because the A-V node has less gap junctions

66
Q

what is the only fiber that connects the atrial to the ventrical

A

the av bundle

67
Q

true or false: the Ap only delays at the AV node

A

false The impulse is delayed more than 0.1 second in the A-V nodal region before appearing in the ventricular septal A-V bundle.

68
Q

the AV bundle has one way or 2 way conduction

A

one way

69
Q

where do the right bundle branch and left bundle branch carry the impuse

A

towards the apex of the heart

70
Q

was is another name for the AV bundle

A

this His nundle

71
Q

how does the impulse transmit to the ventricular

A

Purkinje System

72
Q

where do the special purkinje fibers lead

A

lead from the A-V node through the A-V bundle into the ventricles.

73
Q

what is the effect of the Diminished numbers of gap junctions between successive cells in the conducting pathways within the A-V node

A

induce resistance to conduction of excitatory ions from one conducting fiber to the next.

74
Q

what happens to the impluse at the termination of the purkine fibers

A

the impulse rapidly travels through the ventricle muscle fibers via gap junctions, from the inside (endocardium) to the outside (epicardium).

75
Q

why is it necessary for rapid proparge of the cardac impulse through the purkinje fibers and ventricles

A

importtant for an effect contraction

76
Q

true or false: the impulse rapidly travels through the ventricle muscle fibers via gap junctions, from the inside (endocardium) to the outside (epicardium).

A

true

77
Q

why does the signal/impulse go to the apex of the heartt

A

because it allows max blood to be ejected

78
Q

why is the The SA and AV node action potential is slower to develop than the action potential of the atrial or ventricular muscles.

A

because of the leaky channels

since the atrial/ventricular muscles are already at their resting membrane potential, when the impulse is sense the ap gets sent fast

79
Q

can fast responses (like in the atria and ventricles) ever be converted to the slow responses ?

A

yes
Fast responses may be converted to slow responses either spontaneously or under certain experimental conditions (lack of blood supply)

80
Q

what does ERP stand for and what does it mean

A

effective refractory period

The effective refractory period (ERP) is the amount of time in which the cell cannot respond to a new conducted stimulus. This period is how the heart stays in rhythm and prevents arrhythmias

81
Q

what is the RRp

A

relative refractory period

period where under certain circumstances, it can be depolarixed

82
Q

the refrcatory period is short in BLANK muscles but long is BLANK MUSCLE

A

shoet in skeletal

long in cardiac

83
Q

what does it mean for the sketal muscle to have short refractory periods and cardiac muscle to have long refractory periods.

A

This means that skeletal muscle can undergo summation and tetanus, via repeated stimulation

Cardiac muscle CAN NOT sum action potentials or contractions and CAN NOT be tetanized

84
Q

why is it imporatnt for the heart muscle to have a long refractory periof

A

allows the atrium anf ventricle to refill with blood

prevent artyhmias

85
Q

what are 2 ways to change the frequence of pacemaker firing

A

1) increase HR (increase sodium in the cell)
you will reach the threshold soonwer and generate the AP faster

2) change the normal resting potential so you can reach the AP faster

86
Q

what neurotranmitter to parasympathetic nerves release

A

acetylcholine

87
Q

true or false, the parasympatheic increases or decrease the heart rhythem and excitability

A

decreases

88
Q

what nerves make it so the excitatory signals are no longer transmitted into the ventricles

A

parasympahtetic

89
Q

expalin how parasympathetic nerves decrease heart rhythem and excitability

A

because of Increased permeability of the fiber membranes to potassium ions

(longer to reach threshold)

90
Q

what NT do sympathtic nerves release

A

noreipineprhine

91
Q

true or false: sympathetic nerves increase or decrease the rate of sinus nodal discharge

A

increase

92
Q

what happens to the heart activity when sympathttic nevres are stimulated

A

increases overall heart activity

93
Q

explain how sympathetic nerves effect basic rhythem

A

increases the permibility to the NA and Ca ions, faster to reacher AP tthreshold

94
Q

what modulates the frquence of depolizsaation of pacemaker

A

autonomic nervous system

95
Q

where does the noepinephrine bind for sympathetic stimulation

A

binds to beta1 receptors on the SA nodal membranes

96
Q

where does acetylcholine bind for parasymtphathic stimulation and what does that do

A

binds to muscarinic receptors on nodal membranes; increases conductivity of K+ and decreases conductivity of Ca2+

97
Q

sympathetic stimulation meass there is a HIGHER OR LOWER resting membrane potential

A

higher (more postive) easier to reach threshold

98
Q

parasympathetic stimulation meass there is a HIGHER OR LOWER resting membrane potential

A

lower (more negative0

harder to reach threshold

99
Q

what does atrial fibrilation mean

A

not just one cell initiating the signal causing irregular beat

100

A

atrial fibrilation
supraventrical tachycardia
ventricular tachycardia
bradycardia

101
Q

what does supraventricular tahycardia mean

A

electic impulses travel from ventricle to atria
