Question
Answer
Deoxygenated blood entering the right atrium from the head/neck/upper extremities flows through the [blank] vena cava, while blood from the lower portion of the body flows through the [blank] vena cava.   superior, inferior  
🗑
Major coronary artery that follows the anterior interventricular sulcus is the:   anterior interventricular artery  
🗑
Major coronary vein that follows the anterior interventricular sulcus ins the:   great cardiac vein  
🗑
The pulmonary (arteries or veins) carry blood from the heart to the lungs, while the pulmonary (arteries or veins) carry blood from the lungs to heart.   arteries and veins  
🗑
Trace the cell of a single RBC as it goes through the heart:   Superior vena cava -> right atrium -> right ventricle -> left atrium -> left ventricle -> aorta  
🗑
Mitral (bicuspid) valve separates:   left atrium and left ventricle  
🗑
Aortic Valve separates   left ventricle and aorta  
🗑
Tricuspid valve separates   right atrium and right ventricle  
🗑
Pulmonary valve separates   right ventricle and pulmonary trunk  
🗑
Layers of the heart from most superficial to deep are:   Pericardium - myocardium - endocardium  
🗑
Each atria has an ear-like (flap-like) conical muscular pouch that arises from it, which is visible when looking at the surface of the heart. Referred to as:   auricles  
🗑
What is the first branch of the aorta as blood leave the heart?   Brachiocephalic artery  
🗑
What muscle lines the inner surface of the atria, giving their walls a comb-like appearance?   Pectinate muscle  
🗑
The tricuspid valve has [#] flaps while the mitral valve has [#] flaps.   3 and 2  
🗑
While the inner atria walls are lined by [blank], the inner ventricle walls are lined with [blank].   pectinate muscle and trabeculae carneae  
🗑
What two structures function together to help prevent backflow through the tricuspid and mitral valves?   Papillary muscles and chordae tendineae  
🗑
The aortic and pulmonary valves are (AV or semilunar) valves, while the tricuspid and mitral valves are (AV or semilunar) valves.   semilunar and AV  
🗑
What causes CAD?   a partial blockage of a coronary vessel, which can be caused by either a plaque buildup or a thrombus (blood clot) in the vessel  
🗑
What causes an MI versus CAD?   MIs are caused by the complete blockage of a coronary vessel, while CAD is only a partial blockage  
🗑
Someone who has chest pain with exertion, and not at rest, is likely having an MI rather than CAD. True or False?   False, MI pain continues at rest  
🗑
What is the purpose of ductus arteriosus in fetal blood circulation?   Allows blood to bypass the pulmonary circuit and go straight from the pulmonary artery to the aorta  
🗑
What is the corresponding structure of ductus arteriosus in adults?   grows into ligamentum arteriosum, connective tissue string  
🗑
While listening to your partner's apical and then radial pulse, you notice a large pulse deficit. What might this indicate?   cardiac impairment/ a weak heart that is unable to efficiently pump blood  
🗑
Difference in wall thickness of left and right ventricles:   left is thicker than right.  
🗑
How to calculate pulse pressure:   difference between systolic and diastolic pressures  
🗑


   

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.
