quiz 7 Flashcards
sympathetic nervous system innervates
smooth muscle in arteries and arterioles
baseline sympathetic activity =
vasomotor tone
increase sympathetic activity
increase vasoconstriction
4 chambers of the heart
right and left atria
and right and left ventricles
right and left atria
top chambers
- recieve from vena cava
recieve from pulmonary vein
right and left ventricles
bottom chambers
- pump to pulmonary artery
-pump to aorta
myocardium
cardiac muscle
- type 1 muscle
high number of mitochondria and capillary
cardiac muscle fibers physically connected by
intercalated disks and desomones
cardiac muscle fibers are electrically connected by
gap junctions
where is the most myocardium
left ventricle
intrinsic conduction system
SA node to AV node to AV bundle to Purkinje fibers
intrinsic heat beat is set at
100 beats per min
SA node
initiates contraction signal and stimulates right atria
AV nodes
relays signal to ventricles
delay in RA allows
ventricles to fill during diastole
AV bundle
relays to right and left ventricle
- sends signal to apex of heart
-ventricles contract from bottom up
Purkinje fibers
send signal into right and left ventricle
-ends of right and left bundle branches
-spread throughout entire ventricle
extrinsic: parasympathetic nervous system
reaches heart via vagus nerve
-creates vagal tone
- carries impulses SA and AV nodes
-releases ACH and decreaes HR
extrinsic: sympathetic nervous system
carries impulse to SA and AV nodes
-releases norepinephrine facilitates depolarization
-increases HR
diastole
relaxation phase
-chambers fill with blood
systole
contraction phase
-blood leaves chambers
cardiac cycle
- venous return to the right atrium
- venous flow arrives in the right ventricle
- venous blood is sent in the lung via the pulmonary artery
- after oxygenated in the lung the blood returns to the left atrium
- red blood arrives in the left ventricle
- red blood is sent in the arteries to the issue
p wave
atrial depolarization
QRS
ventricular depolarization
T wave
ventricular repolarization
ventricle systole (contraction)
QRS complex
-ventricle depolarization and repolarization
lub heart sound
atrial valves close
ventricles contract =
depolarization
end systolic volume
remaining blood in ventricle after contraction
ventricle diastole (diastolic blood pressure)
T wave
relaxation begins
-
2nd heart sound - dub
aortic valve closes
end diastole volume
maximum volume of blood in ventricle
stroke volume
volume of blood pumped in one heartbeat
