systemic circuit– to the body

23
Q

right atrium pumps blood through ____ valve during ____

A

tricuspid
diastole

24
Q

structures of right atrium

A

fossa ovalis
right auricle
pectinate muscle

25
Q

right ventricle pumps blood through ____ valve during ____

A

pulmonary valve
systole

26
Q

structures of right ventricle

A

trabecular carne
papillary muscles
chordae tendinae

27
Q

left atrium pumps blood through ____ valve during ____

A

bicuspid
diastole

28
Q

structures of the left atrium

A

left auricle
pectinate muscle

29
Q

left ventricle pumps blood through ____ valve during ____

A

aortic
systole

30
Q

structures of left ventricle

A

trabeculae carneae
papillary muscle
chordae tendineae

31
Q

S1– lub=

A

closure of AV valve

32
Q

S2– dub=

A

closure of semilunar valve (pulmonary and aortic valves)

33
Q

blood flow is maximal during ____ and minimal during ____

A

diastole
systole

34
Q

coronary sinus

A

collects blood from the cardiac veins and returns to right atrium

35
Q

parasympathetic innervation

A

VAGUS NERVE
decreases HR

36
Q

sympathetic innervation

A

CARDIAC SPLANCHNIC NERVES
increases HR

37
Q

3 branches from the aortic arch

A

B– brachiocephalic trunk which divides to R common carotid and R subclavian
C– left common carotid
S– left subclavian artery

38
Q

conducting system of the heart– sequence

A

SA node
AV node
bundle of His

39
Q

SA node under goes a slow, gradual depolarization called ____

A

pacemaker potential

40
Q

period of ventricular contraction and blood ejection

A

systole

41
Q

period of ventricular relaxation and blood filling

A

diastole

42
Q

isovolumetric ventricular contraction

A

ventricles contracting but no blood movement because valves are closed
tension develops

43
Q

ventricular ejection

A

pressure gradient had been bet so valves open

44
Q

the volume of blood ejected from each ventricle during systole

A

stroke volume

45
Q

isovolumetric ventricular relaxation

A

aortic and pulmonary valves close so no blood enters/leaves the ventricles
volume is not changing

46
Q

ventricular filling

A

AV valves are open and blood flows into ventricles
atria contract at end of diastole

47
Q

volume of blood pumped out of each ventricle per unit time

A

cardiac output

48
Q

parasympathetic neuron stimulation cause HR to

A

decrease

49
Q

sympathetic neuron stimulation causes HR to

A

increase

50
Q

is sympathetic nerve stimulation fast or slow

A

fast

51
Q

is parasympathetic nerve stimulation fast or slow

A

slow

52
