| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| plasma and blood: | plasma = 55 blood = 45 |
| artery vs vein: | artery: thick outerwall, smaller lumen vein: thiner outerwall, larger lumen |
| SA node: | pacemaker |
| AV node: | spreads action potential to ventricles |
| bundle of His: | conduct action potential through septum |
| Purkinje fibers: | causes ventricular contraction |
| slows down HR = | parasympathetic NS |
| speeds up HR = | sympathetic |
| Accelerans nerve: | speeds up HR |
| Vagus nerve = | slows down HR |
| Atrial systole = | atria contract, fill ventricles with blood |
| Ventricular systole = | ventricles contract, blood pumped out to atria |
| Diastole = | Relaxation of chamber Ventricles relax, refill with blood |
| lub = | tricupsid and mitral valves |
| dub = | semilunar valves |
| systole = | contract |
