Heart #4

        Help!  

Question
Answer
autorhythmic cells   specialized to produce & distribute impulses thru the heart  
🗑
sinoatrial SA node-pacemaker   initiates each cardiac cycle  
🗑
atrioventricular AV node   reccieves energy from SA node  
🗑
AV bundle of his is a   tract of conducting fibers that runs thru...  
🗑
R & L bundle branches split   from AV bundle and travel...  
🗑
Purkinje fibers emerge from   L & R bundles and pass into cells of myocardium  
🗑
cardiac centers are located   in the medulla oblongata  
🗑
autonomic ervous sys acts as both an:   accelerator as well as a braking sys; modifies but does not directly control  
🗑
sympathetic branch of the ANS:   increases rate and force of heartbeat during stress; called the Accelerator  
🗑
parasympathetic branch of ANS:   slows H when stress ends; Includes chemicals and ions. Called Brakes  
🗑
Cardiac Cycle:   all events associated with the flow of blood thru H during 1 complete heartbeat  
🗑
Systole   Contraction  
🗑
Diastole   Relaxation  
🗑
1 compleat heartbeat =   cardiac cycle  
🗑
blood flow thru heart is totally controlled by   pressure changes  
🗑
blood flows along a pressure gradient from:   higher to lower pressure thru any available opening  
🗑
During atrial diastole   the atria fill w/blodor  
🗑
During atrial systole the artia   contract & ventricles begin to fill  
🗑
Ventricular systole forces blood:   out into the aorta and pulmonary arteries  
🗑
Cardia Output =   CO  
🗑
CO   amt B pumped out by each ventricle in one minute  
🗑
CO is the product of:   heart rate (HR) & stroke volumn (SV)  
🗑
HR   heart rate  
🗑
SR   stroke volumn  
🗑
HR X SV =   CO  
🗑
stroke volumn (SV) is   volumn of B pumped out by a ventricle w/each beat  
🗑
SV is correlated to the force:   of the ventricular contraction  
🗑
main factor controlling SV is:   preload (degree of stretch of cardiac muscles just prior to contraction)  
🗑
Frank Sterling Law   refers to main factor controlling SV  
🗑
normal vol of B is 5 liters and it goes thru H in   1 minute  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
