Q

What separates the right side of the heart from the left?

A

Septum

28
Q

Why is the left side of the heart bigger?

A

It must pump blood to all parts of the body

29
Q

What structure covers the heart?

A

Peridcardium

30
Q

What is the pathway of blood through the heart?

A

R atrium through tricuspid valve to R ventricle, from there through pulmonary semilunar valve to pulmonary trunk to r or L lung. From there to pulmonary veins that enter L atrium, through bicuspid valve (mitral valve) to L ventricle, leaves through aortic semilunar valve

31
Q

What are the layers of heart tissue?

A

Outer: Epicardium
Middle: Myocardium
Inner surfaces: endocardium

32
Q

know heart diagram

A

do u rlly tho. were you really ready to flip this card. did you actually review the heart diagrams or are you lying. Put a 1 you piece of shit. You absolute garbage person.

33
Q

Name the five senses

A

Sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch

34
Q

List & define the types of sensory receptors

A

chemoreceptors: changes in chemical concentration
pain receptors: stimulated by tissue damage
thermoreceptors: changes in temperature
mechanoreceptors: detect mechanical energy
electroreceptors: detect electrical fields
photoreceptors: detect light energy

35
Q

what are taste buds?

A

Sensory organs for taste

36
Q

four primary tastes?

A

sour, salty, sweet, bitter

37
Q

3 layers of the eye?

A

fibrous tunic, vascular tunic, nervous tunic

38
Q

what are the regions of the human ear?

A

outer ear, inner ear, middle ear

39
Q

3 types of hearing impairments?

A

conductive: blocked transmission of sound i.e. something is in the way of the sound
sensory (neural): damage to neural structures
tinnitus: ringing or clicking sound in ears

40
Q

3 types of touch receptors and what do they detect?

A

Pacinian corpuscles: respond to firm pressure
Meisiner’s corpuscles: respond to light touch
Free nerve endings: respond to touch, pressure & pain

41
Q

review the diagrams

A

you know what you did. we both know you didnt review the diagrams. but go off i guess
