Q

SA Node

A

The pacemaker of the heart, in the right atrium of the heart. Starts heartbeat by generating an impulse which travels through the walls of the atria stimulating it to contract (top to bottom)

Q

AV Node

A

Impulse from SA Node reaches the junction in between the ventricles and atria stimulating the AV node to contract after it waits 0.1 seconds

Q

AV NODE 2

A

After waiting for 0.1 seconds the ndoe send a signal to through the walls of the ventricles causing them to contract from bottom to top which then pushes blood up and out to the arteries

Q

Medulla Oblongata

A

Controls the activation of heartbeats
If CO2 is too high the medulla sends a signal through the cranial nerve causing the SA Node to fire more frequently
If CO2 is normal it send a signal through the vagus nerve that causes the SA Node to fire less frequently

Q

Cardiac Cycle

A 
SA through atria walls
atria contracts top to bottom
Impulse reaches junction between atria and ventricles
Activates AV Node (waits 0.1 seconds)
AV through walls of ventricles
ventricles contract bottom to top
pushes blood into arteries
19
Q

Systolic

A

When heart is contracting
blood flows into ventricles from atria until ventricles are almost full (70%) due to higher pressure in the atria
SA Node fires causing atria to contract and thus giving it higher pressure in order to fill ventricles to the max
AV Node fires after 0.1 seconds
The increase in ventricle pressure causes AV valve to close to prevent backflow

20
Q

Diastolic

A

When heart isn’t contracting
Large increase in ventricle pressure cayses semilunar valves to open and then blood flows away from the heart. increase in pressure from pulmonary arteries and aorta and decreases in the ventricles causing the semillunar valves to close
Blood then flows freely into the heart
And pressure in the ventricles drops below the pressure in the artia causing the heartbeat to start again

21
Q

Arteries

A

High Pressure
Narrow Lumen
THICK 3 layer wall (prevent rupturing)
Middle layer is made of muscle and elastic fibers to allow it to maintain pressure and contract during pulses
Outer layer contains collagen to prevent rupturing

22
Q

Capillaries

A

Low pressure
Narrow diameter to increase SA/V Ratio
One cell thick walls for increase in diffusion rate cause of decresed difference
May contain pores and fenestrations to aid in material exchange

23
Q

Anthosclerosis

A

build up of plaque deposits in arteries
can lead to partial or complete occlusions (blockage)
Deposits cause increased blood pressure which in turn causes chronic swelling and damages the endothelial wall (rough hard walls reduces elasticity)
If plaque breaks off it can damage the artery walls and cause clots (thrombosis)

24
Q

Acute Myocardial Infraction

A

HEART ATTACK

25
Q

Coronary Heart Disease

A

EGGSODA

development of atherosclerosis in the coronary arteries, causes reduction in oxygen to the heart

26
Q

Respiration

A

The transport of oxygen to cells produces energy
Ventilation
Gas Exchange
Cell Respiration

27
Q

Ventilation

A

The exchange of air between lungs and the atmosphere through breathing
Driven by a negative pressure mechanism

28
Q

Gas Exchange

A

The exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the alveoli and in the lungs through diffusion

29
Q

Cellular Respiration

A

The release of ATP (energy) from organic molecules aerobic respiration

30
Q

Trachea

A

Tube that allows air to travel in and out of the lungs to and from the atmosphere

31
Q

Lungs

A

Take in fresh air from the atmosphere and gid rid of carbon dioxide from blood

32
Q

Bronchi

A

Tubes (left and right) that carry air into the lungs from the trachea and out of the lungs

33
Q

Bronchioles

A

Smaller tubes that carry air to and from the alveoli, increases surface area

34
Q

Alveoli (TRIM)

A

Clusters of air sacs (increases SA) at the end of the bronchioles that carry out gas exchange (O2 and CO2) with the blood

T: thin walls with a one epithelial cell thick wall to minimize diffusion distance
R: rich capillary network surrounding each alveolus, maintains concentration gradient between lungs and blood for diffusion
I: increased SA:V ratio, small spherical shape increases surface area while decreasing the volume
M: moist, cells lining each alveolus secrete fluid that allows gases to dissolve and prevent the alveoli from sticking and collapsing

35
Q

Pneumocytes

A

Cells that line the insides of alveoli

36
Q

Type 1 Pneumocytes

A

flat (squamous) and extremely thin to minimize diffusion distance and increase surface area for gas exchange (DOESN’T DIVIDE)

37
Q

Type 2 Pneumocytes

A

cuboidal with granules, function is to secrete pulmonary surfactant (liquid substance that reduces surface tension)
Ensures all alveoli expand at the same time and don’t stick to or collapse on each other
(DIVIDE TO MAKE TYPE 1 AND 2)

38
Q

Inspiration (Breathing in)

A

Diaphram muscles contract and external intercostal muscles contract pulling the ribs out and up
Thoracic cavity volume and lung volume increase, the pressure in the lungs drops below atmospheric pressure causing air to rush in and neutralize the gradient

39
Q

Expiration (Breathing Out)

A

Diaphram muscles relax and abdominal wall muscles contract, external intercostal muscles relax (ribs fall), internal intercostal muscles contract pulling the ribs back down
Thoracic cavity volume and lung volume decreases and pressure goes above atmospheric pressure causing air to rush out

40
Q

Emphysema

A

Chronic disease where the walls of the alveoli are damaged
Healthy alveoli turn into large irregularly shaped structures with large holes
Decrease in surface area and oxygen
Causes: tobacco, marijuana, fumes, air pollution

41
Q

Lung Cancer

A

Malignant cells can take over healthy tissues of the bronchioles and alveoli then eventually spread (metastasize) to the brain/bones/liver/adrenal glands
Lung tissues can become dysfunctional which can lead to internal bleeding, coughing up blood, wheezing, respiratory distress, and weight loss
Causes: smoking, asbestos (carcinogens), air pollution, certain infections, genetics

42
Q

Ventilation Rate

A

Breaths per minute

43
Q

Tidal Volume

A

volume of air exchanged (taken in or out) with each breath

44
Q

Spirometer

A

Measures volume of gas inhaled/expelled per breath
