| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| The heart is surrounded by a ______ ______ sac called the pericardium. | double layer |
| Two layers of the pericardium are _______pericardium and _______ pericardium | fibrous, serous |
| The fibrous pericardium is the _______ ______ made of strong connective tissue | outer layer |
| The two layers of the serous pericardium are ____ layer and ______ layer | parietal, visceral |
| The pericardial cavity of the heart contains ______ ______ to help prevent friction | serous fluid |
| The three layers of the heart are | endocardium, myocardium, epicardium |
| In the hearts wall the __________ consists of a thin layer of squamonus epithelial cells and lines the hearts chambers | enodcardium |
| The layer that covers the heart and consists of a thin layer of squamonus epithelial cells is | epicardium |
| The myocardium is middle layer of the heart and the thinnest/thickest | thickest |
| The myocardium is made of ________ _______ | cardiac muscle |
| The heart has 2/4/6 hollow chambers | 4 |
| Atria are the ______ chambers of the heart | upper |
| The two lower chambers of the heart are called | ventricles |
| Vessels that transport blood to and from the heart are called | Great vessels |
| Right and left ventricles are separated by the | interventricular septum |
| Left and right atria are separated by the _______ ______ | interatrial septum |
| The ________ pump blood to the body and lungs | ventricles |
| The right ventricle pumps blood to the ________ | lungs |
| The _______ ventricle pumps blood to the body | left |
| Which side of the ventricles is thicker | the left is thicker to push more blood through the body |
| The ____ regulate the flow between the atria and the ventricles | (AV) atrioventricular valves |
| Why is the right AV valve also called the tricuspid valve | it has three leaflets |
| The right AV valve prevents backflow from the _____ ventricle to the _____ atria | right, right |
| _________ valve prevents backflow from the left ventricle tro the left atria | Bicuspid or mitral |
| Which valves regulate flow between the ventricles and the great arteries | semilunar |
| Pulmonary valve prevents backflow from the _______ artery to the _______ ventricle | pulmonary, right |
| The aortic valve prevents backflow from the ______ to the _______ ventricle | aorta, left |
| What causes the vibrations we know as heart beats | the heart valves closing |
| The purpose of the skeleton of the heart is: | to keep the valves from stretching and acts as a barrier between the atria and ventricles. |
| What is the connection between the left and right sides of the heart | there is no connection, the blood flow is separate. |
| Describe the purpose of the chordae tendineae | to prevent the tricuspid valve from inverting |
| When the left atrium is full the _____ _____opens and blood is pumped into the left ventricle | mitral valve |
| ______ ______ pump oxygenated blood to the myocardium and deoxygenated blood goes to the | cororanary arteries,cardiac veins |
| Coronary arteries bring________ blood to feed the heart. | oxygenated |
| The left ventricle is also known as _________ and __________ valve | mitral or bicuspid |
| The left ventricle has _____ cusps | two |
| The right ventricle has _______ cusps | four |
| ________ ________ are strands of fibrous connective tissue that attach to the bottom AV valves | Chordae tenineae |
| __________ ________ are projections of muscles off of the ventricular wall that attach to the other end of the chordae tendineae | Papillary muscles |
| Superior vena cava receives blood from _______ body | upper |
| Inferior vena cava receives blood from ________ body | lower |
| Another name for the tricuspid valve is ________________ | atrioventricular valve (AV) |
| Epicardium is simple squamous epithelium covering the ___________ | myocardium |
| __________ is simple squamous empithelium lining the 4 chambers, | Endocardium |

| What represents ventricular repolarization | T-wave |
| __________ is conscious awareness of arrhythmias | Palpitation |
| Fibrillation is uncoordinated _________ | contraction |
| What is the sequence of events in a heartbeat called | cardiac cycle |
| The contraction of a chamber is called | systolic |
| The relaxation of a chamber is called | diastolic |
| The ______systole(lub) is followed by ____________ systole(dub) | atrial,ventricular |
| Contractility is the force of _________ __________ | ventricular ejection |
