No No No Don’t Phunk With My Heart Anatomy COPY card 46-89 Flashcards
heart valve movements are the result?
- orientation of the valves attachments
- pressure difference between the two sides of the valve
Which two valves are classified as atrioventricular valves and which two are classified as semilunar valves?
av valves-tricuspid and mitral
semilunar-pulmonic and aortic
a dense fibrous connective tissue surrounding the four valves of the heart
fibrous Skelton
four fused fibrous rings provide the attachment for the cusps of the cardiac valves
fibrous Skelton
serves as attachment for the atrial and ventricular cardiac myocytes
fibrous Skelton
what is the functional significances of the fibrous Skelton?
- electrically isolates the atrial and ventricular cardiac muscle masses
due to the fibrous Skelton the only normal path for electrical impulses between the atria and ventricle is through?
the conducting system
Which coronary artery arises from an ostia in the root of the ascending aorta around the right margin of the heart to the posterior part of the right atrium and ventricle
right coronary artery
Which coronary artery arises from an ostia in the root of the ascending aorta?
left and right coronary artery
in about ⅔ of individuals the right coronary artery ends by forming the ___________
posterior interventricular artery
the right coronary artery arises from an ostia in the root of the ascending aorta around the right margin of the heart to the posterior part of the right atrium and ventricle. What course does it take and where does it terminate?
- runs in the coronary sulcus (depression between the atria and ventricles
- in about ⅔ of individuals the right coronary artery ends by forming the posterior interventricular artery
What parts of the heart does the right coronary artery supply? 4
What parts of the heart does the right coronary artery supply? 4
- most of the right atrium and ventricle
- the conducting system as far as the proximal parts of the right and left bundle branches
- posterior of the interventricular septum
- significant part of the inferior (diaphragmatic) surface of the left ventricles
The left coronary artery arises from the ostia in the root of the ascending aorta. What course does it take after that?
- runs a short distance (2cm) before branching into the anterior interventricular and circumflex arteries
- anterior interventricular/left anterior descending artery-runs in the anterior interventricular sulcus inferiorly toward the apex of the heart
- the circumflex artery runs in the coronary sulcus around the left side of the left side of the posterior-inferior surface
the left coronary artery supplies the anterior interventricular which supplies?
3
- anterior portion of the left ventricle
- anterior ⅔ of the interventricular septum
- distal parts of the left and right bundle branches
the left coronary artery supplies the circumflex which supplies?
2
- left atrium
- left diaphragmatic surfaces of the left ventricle
List, in functional order, the components of the impulse conducting system of the heart.
6
- sinoatrial node (SA)
- atrial musculature
- atrioventricular node (AV)
- atrioventricular (AV) bundle (bundle of his)
- bundle branches: right and left
- network of purkinje fibers
the conducting system is composed of specialized cardiac myocytes located where?
in the heart wall “subendocardial” between the endocardium and myocardium
