Lectures 19-32 Flashcards
Muscles generate _____ & move levers about ______
Torque
Fulcrums
What is a fulcrum?
The point on which a lever rests or is supported
Muscles are driven by ________, they also need ____ to contract
Neural impulses
Energy
Coordinated movement requires ____ feedback. They especially need ______ feedback.
Sensory
Kinesthetic
What are the chambers of the heart? (4)
There a four: Right Atrium Right Ventricle Left Atrium Left Ventricle
What is the name of the vessel leaving the heart? Going to the heart?
Artery
Vein
Describe the way blood goes through the heart…
- Blood, with no oxygen, enters into the right atrium by the superior and inferior vena cava
- Then the blood passes through the artrioventricular valves, and goes into the Right Ventricle
- The blood is the shot up through the pulmonary semi-lunar valve, through the pulmonary arteries
- Then the blood goes to the lungs, and comes back Oxygenated through the Pulmonary veins into the Left Atrium
- Then the blood passes through the atrioventricular valve, into the Left Ventricle
- The blood then passes up through the aortic semi-lunar valve and goes through the Aorta
- The blood then goes through veins into the rest of the body
What’s it called when the Atriums contract? Ventricles?
Atriums = Diastole blood pressure Ventricles = Systole blood pressure
What causes a pulse?
When the ventricles contract (systole)
Is your systolic or diastolic pressure higher?
Systolic pressure is higher
Which parts of the heart blood flow pathway are deoxygenated? Oxygenated?
Deoxygenated:
- Right atrium & ventricle, pulmonary arteries
Oxygenated:
- Pulmonary veins, left atrium & ventricle
T or F: The heart does not need its own blood supply because it has blood constantly flowing through it
False; The heart also needs its own blood supply
What is the coronary circulation?
The heart’s blood supply
What is the Coronary Artery?
The artery that is in the Aorta but instead of giving blood to the rest of the body (like the aorta does), this artery sends oxygenated blood through this artery and gives blood to the heart
What carries deoxygenated blood away from the coronary arteries?
The coronary veins
What empties into the coronary sinus?
The coronary veins
Then the coronary sinus, pumps the oxygen into where?
The right atrium
What is the Sinoatrial (SA) node ? Also called what?
Also called your natural pacemaker
It’s an impulse-generating (pacemaker) tissue located in the right atrium of the heart
** Causes the atriums to contract*
- Determines how fast your heart will beat
What is the Atrioventricular (AV) node? Located?
It follows the SA node and causes the **ventricles to contract
- Located between the Right Atria and Ventricles of the heart
Heart: Neural control over HR is also through the ______ nervous system which is responsive to:
- _________ changes
- ______________ changes
- ___ and ____ blood levels
- etc.
Involuntary (Autonomic)
- emotional
- proprioceptive
- CO2 and O2
What is the average heart rate?
60-85 bpm
Why does a world class long distance runner have a HR of 30 bpm?
Their tissue is more efficient, therefore one beat sends more blood into the body
Stroke volume =
60-80 ml/beat
What is the cardiac output? Equation?
Cardiac output = the volume ejected in 1 min
Cardiac output = HR(bpm) x stroke volume(ml/beat)
