| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Cardiac muscle cells are electrically connected by gap junctions and behave as a single unit? | True |
| Because it sets the rate of depolarization for the normal heart, the ______ node is known as the pacemaker of the heart. | Sinoatrial or (SA Node) |
| Activity of the nerves of the autonomic nervous system is essential for cardiac muscle to contract. | False |
| Today you will create a graphic recording of the electrical changes that occur during a cardiac cycle. This known as an | Electrocardiogram |
| The typical ECG has three/six normally recongnizable deflection waves. | Has Three |
| In a typical ECG, the __________ wave signals the depolarization of the atria immediately before the contract. | P wave |
| The repolarization of the atria is usually masked by the large QRS complex? | True |
| A Heat rate over 100 beats/minute is known as | Tachycardia |
| How many electodes will you place on your subject for today's activity if using a standard ECG apparatus? | 4 |
| Electrical activity recorded by any lead depends on the location and orientation of the rocording electrodes. | True |
| A rate below 60 Beats/minutes | Brandycardia |
| prolonged tachycardia | Fibrillation |
| ECG is a record of | Voltage and time |
| List the elements ofthe intrinsic conduction stystem in order. | SA Node>>>AV Node>>>A Bundle>>>Bundle Branches>>> Purkinje Fibers |
| Define ECG | the graphic recording of the electrical changes( Depolarization followed by Repolarization) Occuring during the cardiac cycle. |
| Which Node is often refferd to as the pacemaker? | Sa Node |
| At what structure in the transmission sequence is the impulse temporarily delayed? | AV Node This delay is important because it ensures that the atria have ejected their blood into the ventricles first before the ventricles contract/ |
| Immediately before the P wave | Heart is in diastole |
| During the wave | Depolarization of atria |
| P-R interval | represents the time between the beginning of atrial depolarization and ventricular depolarization |
| Q-T interval | is the period from the beginning of ventricular deposarization through repolarization includes the time of ventricular contraction |
| Exercisse 32 anatomy of blood vessels | |
| List the elements of the intrinsic conduction stystem in order starting with the SA Node | SA NOde>>>Av Node>>> AV Bundles>>>Bundle Branches>>Purkinje Fibers |
| Define ECG | the graphic recording of the electrical changes (Depolarization followed by repplarization) occuring during the ccardiac cycle. |
| At what structure in the transmission sequence is the impulse temporarily delayed | AV Node this delay is important because it ensures that the atria have ejected their blood into the ventricles first before the ventricles contract. |
| Immediately before the P wave | Heart is in diastole |
| During the P wave | Depolarization of atria |
| P-R interval | Represents the time between the beginning of atrial depolaratztion and ventricular depolarization |
| P-R interal | 0.16 to 0.18 a longer interval lmay suggest a partial AV heart block caused by damage to the AV node. |
| Q-T Interval | is the period from the veginning of ventricular depolarization through replarization and includes the time of ventricular contractions |
| Lab 32 Anatomy of Blod Vessels | |
| Which arteries/veins drain tissues and return blood to the heart | Arteries |
| It is through the walls of capillaries that actual gas exchange takes place between tissue cells and blood | True |
| The ______ is the largest artery of the body | Aorta |
| The largest branch of the abdominal aorta, the __________artery, supplies most of the small intestine and the first half of the large intestine | Superior mesenteric |
| The anterior tibial artery terminates with the _______ artery, which is oftern palpated in patients with circulatory problems to determine the circulatory efficiency of the lower limb | The dorsalis pedis artery |
| Veins draining the head and upper extremities empty into the | Superior vena cava |
| Located in the lower limb, the ________is the longest vein in the body | Great Saphenous |
| The ______ veins drain the liver | hepatic vein |
| The function of the _________is to drain the digestive viscera and carry dissolved nutrients to the liver for processing | Hepatic portal circulation |
| In the developing fetus, the umbilibal ____ carries blood rich in nutrients and oxygen to the fetus. | Vein |
