25
Q

AV node and Purkinje fibers conductance

A

AP slow to let ventricle fill in AV node. Rapid conduction in Purkinje for synchronized contraction

26
Q

How AP spreads in the heart

A

via gap junctions

27
Q

SA node contains specialized ________

A

muscle cells

28
Q

Starling’s Law of the heart

A

if cardiac filling increases during diastole, stroke volume increases

29
Q

stroke volume is proportional to ______ and ____

A

end diastolic volume (so CO too)

30
Q

SS influences what portion of the heart

A

all

31
Q

SS ntr on the heart and receptor

A

norepinephrine. beta-1 receptor

32
Q

4 effects of SS on heart

A
  • HR (SA node)
  • AP conduction velocity
  • force of contraction of atrial and ventricular muscles
  • rate of contraction and relaxation
33
Q

PSS influences what portions of the heart

A

SA node, AV node, atrial muscle

34
Q

PSS ntr on heart and receptor

A

Ach. M2

35
Q

4 effects of PSS on heart

A
  • HR (SA node)
  • AP conduction velocity (AV node)
  • Force of contraction of ATRIAL muscle
  • Rate of contraction and relaxation
36
Q

Increase in PSS activity generally accompanied by ________

A

decrease in SS activity

37
Q

5 requirements for effective ventricular pumping

A
  • adequate filling at diastole
  • synchronized contraction
  • forceful contraction
  • valves fully open
  • valves don’t leak
38
Q

arteries behavior (wall thickness, systole, diastole)

A

thick wall, expand at systole to store blood, recoil at diastole to supply blood downstream

39
Q

arteries wall composition

A

SM, elastin, collagen

40
Q

arteries are the _____ vessels

A

conduit

41
Q

how arteriole walls differ from arteries walls

A

thicker, more SM, less elastic material.

42
Q

why more SM cells in arterioles

A

can control lumen diameter to regulate blood flow

43
Q

arterioles are the ___________ vessels

A

resistance

44
Q

capillaries are the ______ vessels

A

exchange

45
Q

how cross sectional area (total) varies in CV system

A

greater as go towards capillaries

46
Q

venules and veins walls charact

A

thin, contain SM, very distensible, diameter changes actively

47
Q

veins are called the _______ vessels

A

capacitance

48
Q

why veins capacitance vessels

A

more than 50% blood volume stored there

49
Q

Special stucture found in larger veins

A

one-way valves that prevent blood from flowing backwards

50
Q

3 mechanisms of resistance control

A
  • SS innervation to arterioles
  • local mediators of arteriolar SM
  • SS innervation to venules and veins
51
Q

how SS affcts arterioles

A

alpha 1 R, NE, contraction of SM, reduced blood flow

52
Q

how local mediators affect arterioles

A

increased metabolism=arteriolar relaxation and increased flow

53
Q

how SS affects veins and venules

A

constriction, decreased venous volume, increased cardiac filling (increased SV).

54
Q

Arteries and capillaries ANS innervation

A

none

55
Q

blood cells 3 types + abundance + origin

A

RBCs (most abundant), platelets, WBCs (least abundant). Bone marrow is origin

56
Q

serum def

A

plasma without clotting proteins

57
Q

plasma contents

A

electrolytes, proteins*, nutrients, wastes

58
Q

electrolytes in the blood

A

Na+, K+, Cl-, HCO3-

59
Q

Proteins in the blood (3 categories)

A

albumins, globulins, fibrinogen

60
Q

blood proteins functions

A

clotting, immune reaction, carrier proteins (fat, iron, copper, vitamin D, hormones)

61
Q

most abundant plasma protein

A

albumin

62
Q

proteins important function in plasma and why

A

osmotic role bc don’t cross at capillaries so more concentrated in plasma
