The primitive atrium develops into the
Rough walled portion of R. and L. Atriua
The sinus venosus develops into the
Smooth walled portion of right atrium (sunus venosus)
The proximal pulmonary vein develops into the
Smooth walled portion of the left atrium
Transposition of the great arteries is usually associated with a
VSD, ASD, or patent ductus arteriosus
Too much potassium outside of the cell
Hyperkalemia
What is the effect of Hyperkalemia?
Makes RMP less negative
Not enough potassium outside of the cell
Hypokalemia
What is the effect of Hypokalemia?
Makes RMP more negative
Faster in myelinated than non-myelinated neurons
Action Potentials
In the SA node, ACh binds CM2 receptors and the G-protein then activates outward rectifying K+ currents which
Cause RMP to become more negative and slows heartrate
The plateu potential is seen in the
Myocardium
During the plateau phase (phase 2) there is an inward Ca2+ current from Type L channels and an outward K+ current. These two currents
Work against eachother and comprise the slow plateau
Bind voltage-gated Na+ Channels and lock them in inactive position
Local Anesthetics
At LOW SNS tone, what do the following receptors do?
- ) B1
- ) B2
- ) a1
- ) Raises cardiac function
- ) Vasodilation of skeletal muscle
- ) Vasoconstriction in arterioles
At HIGH SNS tone, what do the following receptors do?
- ) B1
- ) a1
- ) Elevates cardiac function
2. ) Vasoconstricts VSM
Important vasoconstrictor of vascular smooth muscle
a1
Located in the SA node, ventricular myocytes, and renal JG cells
-increases HR and contractility
B1
The adrenal medulla is innervated by
Pre-ganglionic sympathetic fibers
What is the neurotransmitter for the SNS?
Norepinephrine
What is the neurotransmitter for the PNS?
ACh
To decrease HR in the heart, ACh binds
CM2
Causes resporption of calcium from bone and forming urine
Parathyroid Hormone (PTH)
Sense tendon stretch as an indicator of muscle tension
Golgi Tendon Organs
Increase in muscle fiber diameter
Hypertrophy
