Q

The steps of blood flow :

A

deoxygenated blood comes from IVC and SVC-> blood enters right atrium-> blood then flows through the tricuspid valve->then to the right ventricle-> flows through the pulmonary artery-> then to the lungs where it becomes oxygenated->flows through the pulmonary veins->fills the left atrium-> then flows through the bicuspid valve-> into the left atrium->then goes through the aortic valve-> into the aorta and leaving to the rest of the body

Q

Steps of SA node action potential (LONG):

A
  1. Pacemaker potential: begins at -60mv, opening of Na+ channels closing of K+ channels, membrane reaches threshold(-40mv) 2. Depolarization begins ( Ca+2 channels open causing an influx of calcium), when +5mv is reached Ca+2 channels close 3. Repolarization begins (Ca+2 channels close and K+ channels open causing K+ to efflux(exit) which bring membrane potential back to its most negative voltage (-60 mv RMP)

Q

Phase “2” – Plateau:

A

Opening of Voltage

Gated Calcium Channels → Calcium enters cell and Potassium leaves cell (ch is still open)→ membrane is stable

17
Q

Phase “3” – Repolarization:

A

Voltage Gated

Potassium Channels are open→ Potassium leaves cell → membrane becomes negative

18
Q

Phase 4 – Resting Membrane Potential:

A

-90 mv (Resting membrane potential reached), Closure of Voltage
gated Potassium Channel.
