heart written

QuestionAnswer
luub sound AV valves close, beginning of systole
dub sound SL valves close, beginning of diastole
systole contraction of heart muscle
diastole relaxation of heart muscle
step 1 of cardiac cycle all chambers in diastole, blood fills chambers, AV valve open
step 2 of cardiac cycle SA node fires, produces P wave, ventricles are still in diastole, atrial systole occurs
step 3 of cardiac cycle AV node fires, produces QRS complex, sets off ventricular systole, atria enters diastole, luub sound occurs
step 4 of cardiac cycle blood is pumped into arteries, end of ventricular systole, atrial diastole occuring
step 5 of cardiac cycle produces T wave, all chambers in diastole and AV valves open, SL valves close, dup sound
atrial diastole steps 3-5,1
atrial systole step 2
ventricular systole step 3 and 5
ventricular diastole step 1-2,5
cardiac output amount of blood pumped out by each ventricle in 1 minute
depolarization the action potential begins when the pacemaker potential reaches threshold
repolarization brings membrane potential back to its negative voltage
atrioventricular valves tricuspid and biscuspid/mitral
tricuspid valve RA-RV
bicuspid valve/mitral LA-LV
semilunar valves pulmonary and aortic
pulmonary valve RV-pulmonary trunk
aortic valve LV-aorta
blood flows from atrium to ventricles
left atrium/ventricle on which side of paper right side
right atrium/ventricle on which side of paper left side
blood flows from vena cava to the right atrium
blood flows from right atrium thru the tricuspid valve
blood thru tricuspid valve end up in the right ventricle
blood from right ventricle goes thru the pulmonary valve
blood thru pulmonary valve ends up in the pulmonary trunk
blood in pulmonary trunk flows to the right/left pulmonary artery
blood from right/left pulmonary artery flows to the lungs
blood from the lungs go to the right/left pulmonary veins
blood from right/left veins flows to the left atrium
blood from left atrium flows thru the bicuspid valve
blood thru the bicuspid valve ends up in the left ventricle
blood in the left ventricle flows thru the aortic valve
blood thru the aortic valve ends up in the aorta
blood in the aorta flow throughout the body
veins dealing with the heart go towards heart
arteries dealing with the heart go away from heart
P wave depolarization of SA node
QRS complex ventricular depolarizaition and atrial repolarization
T wave ventricular repolarization
step 1 of excitation SA node generates impulses -75 times a minute
step 2 of excitation AV node delays the impulse 0.1 second
step 3 of excitation impulse passes from atria to ventricles via AV bundle, AV bundles split into 2 pathways in inter ventricular septum
step 4 of excitation bundle branches carry impulse toward apex
step 5 of excitation purkinje fibers carry impulse to heart and ventricular walls
what is considered the pacemaker of the electrical system in the heart the SA node

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
