Lecture 4 Flashcards
structures consisting of loose connective tissue covered by endothelium that are responsible for most septation processes occurring in the heart
endocardial cushions
????????
EPICARDIUM
???????
ENDOCARDIUM
???????
MYOCARDIUM
bending of the heart tube positions the heart in the left thoracic region and creates the “typical” heart shape with the atria posterior (to the back) to the ventricles
cardiac looping

BULBUS CORDIS
??????
DEXTROCARDIA
????
SINUS VENOSUS
first septum to grow down from the roof of the common atrium and contributes to the interatrial septum
prior to contact with the atrioventricular endocardial cushions, programmed cell death creates a new opening in this septum to maintain communication between the atrial chambers
this septum will form the valve of the foramen ovale
septum primum
second septum to grow down from the roof of the common atrium toward the atrioventricular endocardial cushions
never makes contact with the cushions, such that an oblique opening (foramen ovale) is created between the _______ and septum primum that allows shunting of blood from the right atrium to the left during fetal development
at birth, this opening is closed when the septum primum is pressed against the _______ and the adult pattern of blood flow is established
septum secundum
?????
OSTIUM PRIMUM
?????
OSTIUM SECUNDUM
opening in the interatrial septum that permits shunting of blopd from right to left during fetal development
foramen ovale
